Abstract
The problem of consciousness became thorny from Descartes onward. His infamous interactionist dualism (Seager 2007, 9) between res cogitans (mind) and res extensa (matter) was at the origin of a host of philosophical problems and eventually gave rise to a number of different trends in epistemology and ontology, among which the two basic, all-embracing, and opposite kinds of monism, that is, philosophical idealism and philosophical realism.
I’d like to thank Uta Bindreiter for providing me with some Swedish texts that cannot be easily got hold of, as well as for making some useful linguistic suggestions. It goes without saying that responsibility for any error or imperfection rests solely with me.
