Buch: Understanding and Being

Titel: Understanding and Being

Stichwort: Self-affirmation als Objektivation seines selbst

Kurzinhalt: Selbstaneignung als Objektivation; kurze Frage nach dem Bewusstsein Christi; Widerspruch zwischen: what explicitly I say and what implicitly I am

Textausschnitt: () ... The self is appropriated in the sense that we conceive it and judge it, but that very conceiving and judging enables us to find it; and, fundamentally, we can find it insofar as we ask questions.

So self-knowledge - the process from being present to oneself, and finding typical activities in that self, to understanding how these activities are combined, and from that combination working out a theory of what it is to be a knower - is an objectification of oneself.
