| summary | How is subjectivity related to alterity? How is consciousness of oneself related to consciousness of others? Here this question is first addressed by considering how self-consciousness is intentional. Consciousness of oneself-as-object is thought to be intentional, in the sense that the subject is there taken as his own object of intentional consciousness. Contrastively, it is traditionally argued that consciousness of oneself-as-subject is orthogonal relative to intentionality, precisely in that any act of intentional consciousness targeting the subject himself would irremediably miss his specific subjectivity, by turning him into an intentional object. Here, it is rather proposed that consciousness of oneself-as-subject is tied to intentionality in that it involves being conscious of oneself as an intentional subject, i.e. as a subject directed at intentional objects transcending oneself-as-subject. This form of self-consciousness is neither reflective, in the sense that it does not involve taking oneself as an object of reflection, nor reflexive, in the sense that it does not involve being related to oneself but to what-one-is-not, i.e. to the transcending intentional object. It is further argued that consciousness of oneself-as-subject involves two dynamics, as the subject would be passively indicated to himself by the objects towards which he actively directs himself. This double dynamic is further considered in the specific case of self-consciousness in relation to other subjects. |
