   Jul 13, 2017 · Self-Consciousness. Human beings are conscious not only of the world around them but also of themselves: their activities, their bodies, and their mental lives. They are, that is, self-conscious (or, equivalently, self-aware). Self-consciousness can be understood as an awareness of oneself.

   Jul 26, 2004 · In this article, we will focus on Immanuel Kant’s (1724–1804) work on the mind and consciousness of self and related issues. Some commentators believe that Kant’s views on the mind are dependent on his idealism (he called it transcendental idealism). For the most part, that is not so.

   May 16, 2022 · Aristotle argues that the self or the human person is a composite of body and soul and that the two are inseparable. Aristotle’s concept of the self, therefore, was constructed in terms of hylomorphism. Aristotle views the soul as the “form” of the human body.

   Aquinas begins his theory of self-knowledge from the claim that all our self-knowledge is dependent on our experience of the world around us. He rejects a view that was popular at the time, i.e., that the mind is “always on,” never sleeping, subconsciously self-aware in the background.

   Read René Descartes, from Meditations on First Philosophy. For Descartes, then, this is the essence of your self—you are a “thinking thing,” a dynamic identity that engages in all of those mental operations we associate with being a human self. For example: You understand situations in which you find yourself.

   What does Aristotle say about the self?

   • Again, Aristotle’s concept of the self is hylomorphic, that is, the self or the human person is composed of body and soul. The two are inseparable. Thus, we cannot talk about the self with a soul only or a self with a body only. For Aristotle, the self is essentially body and soul. Indeed, for Aristotle, the self is a unified creature.

   What is self-consciousness?

   • It is natural to suppose that self-consciousness is, fundamentally, a conscious awareness of the self. On such a view, one is self-conscious if, when one introspects, one is aware of a thing that is, in some sense, presented as oneself.

   What is Kant's view on the self?

   • Kant’s understanding of the Self is quite complex, but his objections to the views of both Descartes and Hume provide a place to start. Kant (1781A / 1965) in the Critique of Pure Reason, holds that Descartes’ claim for the Self as a non-material thinking substance is untenable.

   What does Kant say about self-consciousness?
