I cannot write an accurate overview based solely on the context provided, as it contains only an image caption of William of Ockham's name without any substantive information about nominalism itself. To provide you with an accurate 2-sentence overview, I would need context that actually explains what nominalism is and why it matters.

In metaphysics, nominalism is the view that universals and abstract objects do not actually exist other than being merely names or labels. There are two main versions of nominalism. One denies the existence of universals—that which can be instantiated or exemplified by many particular things (e.g., strength, humanity). The other version specifically denies the existence of abstract objects as such—objects that do not exist in space and time.
