Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theory of Mind as Pure Act The book which I have translated is intended by its author to be the initial volume of a series of his Philosophical Works. Giovanni Gentile was born at Casteltravano in Sicily the 29th May 1875. He was educated at Pisa and later was appointed to the Chair of Philosophy in the University of that city. In 1917 he received the appointment he now holds of Professor of the History of Philosophy in the University of Rome. He has become famous in his own country on account of his historical and philo sophical writings and even more by the number and fervour of the disciples he has attracted. The present work is designed to give form to the maturity of his philosophical thinking. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Giovanni Gentile's philosophy of mind and consciousness remains a landmark of early 20th century thinking, his perspectives on reality and being. A firm follower of Hegel's phenomenology, Gentile sought to build upon the Hegelian theories. He believes that reality and everything around us is conceived by consciousness, and that while objects in the world physically exist, they are essentially an extension of the conscious being. Early in the book, Gentile investigates what earlier philosophers have to say on the nature of mind and reality, appraising their thoughts and adding his own insights. Later, discussions range across the spiritual and the metaphysical, and how thought gives rise to the phenomena humanity are familiar with. This book built upon the philosophical themes for which Gentile was known, alongside his writings on Italian culture and traditions, on education and pedagogy, plus the attitudes and lives of other thinkers through history. In the modern era, Gentile is remembered most for his political philosophy: advocating for a form of Italian fascism, he was favored by the government of Mussolini for providing an intellectual basis for fascist rule.

CHAPTER VIII THE POSITIVE AS SELF-CREATED The distinction between abstract and concrete thought is fundamental. The transfer of a problem from i. Abstract abstract to concrete thought is, we may and concrete say, the master-key of our whole doctrine, thought. Many and various doctrines, which have thrown philosophy into a tangle of inextricable difficulties and have blocked the path of escape from empiricism, have in our view arisen entirely from looking at the abstract in unconsciousness of the concrete in which it is engrafted and by which it is conceivable. For empiricism itself is an abstract view of reality, and all its difficulties arise from the restriction of its standpoint. It can only be overcome when we succeed in rising to the speculative standpoint. Of doctrines which spring from the soil of abstract thought we can find perhaps no more notable and significant example than that of the abstractness of table of judgments, from which Kant in Kant-s classifi-the Critique of Pure Reason deduces the cauon of the categories. He distinguishes--to take one judgments. ...., . example of his method--three species of modality in the judgment, according to whether the judgment is assertorical, problematical, or apodeictical; or according to whether the relation of the predicate to the subject is thought to be actual or possible 96 ch.vm CLASSIFICATION OF JUDGMENTS 97 or necessary. And in classifying the judgments which are thus set in array for our thought and regarded as the content of our mind, inherent in it but detachable from it, a content communicable to others because conceivable in itself, he is right in holding that there are all these three, and no more than these three, species of modality. But when judgments are...

Download or read book The Act of Thinking written by Derek Melser and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2004-09-03 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new theory proposes that thinking is a learned action. In this remarkable monograph, Derek Melser argues that the core assumption of both folk psychology and cognitive science—that thinking goes on in the head—is mistaken. Melser argues that thinking is not an intracranial process of any kind, mental or neural, but is rather a learned action of the person. After an introduction in which he makes a prima facie case that thinking is an action, Melser reviews action-based theories of thinking advanced by Ryle, Vygotsky, Hampshire and others. He then presents his own theory of "token concerting," according to which thinking is a special kind of token performance, by the individual, of certain social, concerted activity. He examines the developmental role of concerted activity, the token performance of concerted activity, the functions of speech, the mechanics and uses of covert tokening, empathy, the origins of solo action, the actional nature of perception, and various kinds and aspects of mature thinking. In addition, he analyzes the role of metaphors in the folk notion of mind. While intending his theory as a contribution to the philosophy of mind, Melser aims also at a larger goal: to establish actions as a legitimate philosophical given, self-explanatory and sui generis. To this end, he argues in the final chapter against the possibility of scientific explanation of actions. The Act of Thinking opens up a large new area for philosophical research.

Book The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind

Download or read book The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind written by Julian Jaynes and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2000-08-15 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry
