Morbid objectivization in psychopathology.

The fundamental problems of schizophrenia are wrongly formulated unless one takes heed of the major philosophical revolution which Kant initiated with the publication of the Critique of Pure Reason in 1781. Virtually all major philosophers since then have adhered to the view that the mind objectifies whatever energy fields/atoms, etc., are 'out there'. The thesis put forward in this lecture will be that schizophrenia is a condition in which this process proceeds too far. Evidence from the psychopathology of body, time and world is offered in support of such morbid objectivization.

Consciousness and body image: lessons from phantom limbs, Capgras syndrome and pain asymbolia.

Words such as 'consciousness' and 'self' actually encompass a number of distinct phenomena that are loosely lumped together. The study of neurological syndromes allows us to explore the neural mechanisms that might underlie different aspects of self, such as body image and emotional responses to sensory stimuli, and perhaps even laughter and humour. Mapping the 'functional logic' of the many different attributes of human nature on to specific neural circuits in the brain offers the best hope of understanding how the activity of neurons gives rise to conscious experience. We consider three neurological syndromes (phantom limbs, Capgras delusion and pain asymbolia) to illustrate this idea.
