Their criticism is, in the epistemological regard, directed against introspectionism, and in the ontological regard, against an internalist and qualia-friendly, non-functionalist (or: broadly dualistic/idealistic) conception of the mind. The book examines this criticism in detail, looking at the writings of Wittgenstein, Ryle, Hacker, Dennett, and other authors, reconstructing their arguments, and pointing out where they fall short of their aim. In defending Husserl against his Wittgensteinian critics, the book also offers a comprehensive fresh view of phenomenology as a philosophy of mind. In particular, Husserl’s non-representationalist theory of intentionality is carefully described in its various aspects and elucidated also with respect to its development, taking into account writings from various periods of Husserl’s career. Last but not least, the book shows Wittgensteinianism to be one of the effective roots of the present-day hegemony of physicalism.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: DEItem Height: 155mmItem Length: 230mmItem Weight: 901gAuthor: Uwe MeixnerGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityBook Series: Philosophische Analyse / Philosophical AnalysisTopic: Language & ReferenceRelease Year: 2014 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
