THE PROBLEM of 'MIND-BODY INTERACTION' and 'OTHER MINDS' in DESCARTES and RYLE
Abstract
The first and most important moment of the self-knowledge and discussions of the mind and consciousness are in the 17th century and Descartes. Descartes, trying to reveal the distinction between mental and physical, have initiated a discussion lead last for many years. The mind, the structure of the mind, its functions and its connection with the body have still being discussed.
The issues of what kind of a being human is and whether the mental aspect or the physical aspect should be centred or whether it has a two-centred structure is discussed throughout the history of philosophy. The issue of mind-body dualism, which was the main problem of the Cartesian tradition after Descartes in the 17th century, witnessed the development of alternative thoughts different from the established understanding, in the 20th century.
This paper will try to examine the concept of mind through Ryle, one of the 20th century philosophers who wrote the first great reaction to both the established dualist understanding and Descartes. The basic problems of the paper focuses on the problem of the mind-body interaction and the knowledge of other minds. Around these two problems, Descartes' understanding of mind-body that constitutes the traditional discourse and Ryle's approach to the concept of mind, who made a strong opposition to this traditional discourse, will be discussed.
