An Ontology of Consciousness

More about the book

Exploring the intricate relationships between consciousness, the self, and the unconscious, this study addresses three pivotal philosophical questions: the ontological status of consciousness, the nature of unconscious or prereflective states, and the formation of the self through interrelated states of consciousness. By examining these interconnected issues, the author highlights the complexities that have emerged in twentieth-century philosophy, challenging the notion that consciousness can be overlooked or dismissed, while seeking a coherent theoretical framework for understanding these fundamental concepts.
