The position taken by Haselager et alii (see pp. 1-11 of the same volume) consists of three theses: 1) The core of human sense-self-consciousness is not language or thought but the body sense; 2) The distinction between external and internal senses is false; 3) There is no prominence of the brain over the rest of the body with regard to the sense of identity that every human being has. This paper aims at showing that - while thesis (1) is perfecly convincing - theses (2) and (3) must be revisited in part since they are too committed to the kind of anti-representationalism proposed by Brooks.

Abstract
The position taken by Haselager et alii (see pp. 1-11 of the same volume) consists of three theses: 1) The core of human sense-self-consciousness is not language or thought but the body sense; 2) The distinction between external and internal senses is false; 3) There is no prominence of the brain over the rest of the body with regard to the sense of identity that every human being has. This paper aims at showing that - while thesis (1) is perfecly convincing - theses (2) and (3) must be revisited in part since they are too committed to the kind of anti-representationalism proposed by Brooks.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
