Leaving the Soul Apart. An Introductory Study
Creators
Description
In The Analysis of Mind (1921), Bertrand
Russell stresses the importance of William
James’ late neutral monist view of consciousness
for the studies in psychology. In so doing, he focuses
on a topic whose roots can be traced back to
the nineteenth-century European debate on physiology
and scientific psychology. In this introductory
paper I shall briefly outline the path that, starting
from the revival of Kant in the German scientific
debate, leads to both Ernst Mach’s and William
James’ questioning the value of the I or consciousness
as a substance concept.
