“…“If one does not know the basic rules of chess, one cannot perceive chess pieces, one cannot see a rook, for example. Consequently, if the rules of chess had never been invented, chess objects would not exist” (Haugeland, 1998; Huemer, 2003). Materialists ignore the thinker’s contribution to the results of knowledge, forgetting that only because of their actions is such a thing as result of knowledge possible.…”

The paper examines the perspectives of idealistic panpsychism, a radical version of panpsychism, according to which all reality is only mental. A comparison is then made with other major theories concerning the problem of consciousness and a brief overview of their respective strengths is given. I argue that idealistic panpsychism has a presumption of advantage over other positions, representing the most accessible knowledge helping the researcher to use the widest range of possibilities, and does not create unnecessary methodological obstacles. Another strength of this view is its practical utility, allowing it to combine theoretical and life-practical knowledge. On this metaphysical basis, I construct an idealistic argument against skepticism and concerning the identity of truth. I also highlight the weakness of those arguments that deny the legitimacy of idealism, such as the argument for the intuitive proof of the external world (dogmatic argument) and arguments concerning the unscientific nature of idealism.

Husserl and the Problem of Abstract Objects

One major difficulty confronting attempts to clarify the epistemological and ontological status of abstract objects is determining the sense, if any, in which such entities may be characterised as mind and language independent. Our contention is that the tolerant reductionist position of Michael Dummett can be strengthened by drawing on Husserl's mature account of the constitution of ideal objects and mathematical objectivity. According to the Husserlian position we advocate, abstract singular terms pick out weakly mind-independent sedimented meaning-contents. These meaning-contents serve as the 'thin' referents of abstract singular terms, but are ultimately founded in prior acts of meaning-constitution.

The interplay of indexicality between essence and meanings: an interconnection of experiences and memory

This article looks at Husserlian ideas as an analytical tool to explain the cognitive aspects of experiences that range between knowledge acts in inferences and Mulligan’s contemporary perspective of meaning formation, through reflections of relations. The essay also takes into consideration the views of Levinas and Hintikka, for whom experiences form the foundations of intuitive capacity. These perspectives are essential concerning epistemic evidence to self (I/me-ness): mental objects and spatiotemporal relations are the structural notions of episteme on their own; their dynamics were tightly coordinated at an intentional process to strengthen episteme; this coordination appeared to be a state change caused in epistemic evidence. Experience is a process that continually gives us new material to digest; Experience leads ever on and on, and objects and our ideas of objects may both lead to the same goal. (James, 1909/1975: 208, 258)
