HOW DO EPISTEMOLOGICAL BELIEFS DIFFER BY GENDER AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS?
Ozkan, Sule; Öztekin, Ceren (2011-01-01)

How does consciousness exist?: a comparative inquiry on classical empiricism and William James
Yılmaz, Zeliha Burcu; Çırakman, Elif; Department of Philosophy (2006)
William James denies consciousness as an entity and this rejection lies in the background of my thesis. I searched the main reasons for this rejection in his philosophy. Throughout this search, I perceived two modes of existence of consciousness, that is active and passive. As James improves his thoughts on consciousness over the main arguments of classical empiricists, I explained his radical empiricism and pragmatism in relation to them. It is difficult to answer whether we are completely active or passiv...
