Morphological content and identity

Post date: Nov 14, 2009 4:48:39 AM

My thoughts are returning to the epistemic importance of morphological content. One thought is that we have to do with a kind of adumbration, with the coloring of the explicit occurrent content and of the epistemic background. An important question surfaces along this road: if we wish explain the impact of morphological content upon total cognitive states (and on their epistemic justification), then we also have to look at the relation between phenomenology/consciousness and between the intentionality/directedness. As my guess is that the identity theory (and not grounding theories) is the right approach to this matter, an interesting task surfaces: comparing intentionality=phenomenology identity with the psychophysical identity (consciousness = a process in the brain).
