Consciousness and self-awareness

David Woodruff Smith

pp. 70-111

Abstrakt

In having an experience, which is a conscious mental process, one has a direct awareness of the experience, and of oneself as subject of the experience. Indeed, what makes the experience conscious is just that awareness of the experience as it transpires. And it is in just that awareness that one is acquainted with one's experience, and with oneself.
