AI

This essay explores the ongoing discourse between relationists and non-relationists in contemporary philosophy of the mental, focusing on the concepts of pre-reflective consciousness and the Heidelberg problem. It discusses the necessity of an ontology of non-objectual consciousness and how recent American philosophical contributions are engaging with and renewing Sartre's pre-reflective consciousness. The work argues for the importance of understanding the relationship between pre-reflective and reflective consciousness as a fundamental issue in philosophical investigations of the mind.
