The productive function of the will in the pfilosophical thought of William James
PublicationW artykule przedstawiłem W. Jamesa koncepcję wolnej woli w jej wytwórczej funkcji. Pokazałem, że zrównuje ona ludzkie poznanie i ludzką aktywność. Następnie podkreśliłem, że wola ma wieloaspektowy charakter w formowaniu nowego "wewnętrznego człowieka". W związku z tym, zanalizowałem tzw. empiryczne 'ja' jako "niższe" i "wyższe" 'ja'. Z kolei podkreśliłem walor konsekwencji teleologicznej cechy ludzkiej...
