Życiński, Józef2023-06-012023-06-011995Analecta Cracoviensia, 1995, T. 27, s. 77-90.0209-0864http://theo-logos.pl/xmlui/handle/123456789/7851The paper contains critical assessment of basic philosophical tenets proposed by Daniel C. Dennett in his famous book Consciousness Explained. The author examines Dennett's philosophical proposals in the context of the so called „postmodern” critique of classical philosophy; he points out how Dennett 's critique of the Cartesian theory of human mind was inspired by deconstructivist principles developed by supporters of Jacques Derrida and Jean-Francois Lyotard. Both deep internal inconsistencies and anti-intellectural consequences are shown in interpretive schemes adopted by Dennett.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/filozofiadekonstrukcjonizmpostmodernizmteoria racjonalnościracjonalnośćJacques DerridaJean-François Lyotardmetafizykadekonstrukcjaantropologiaphilosophydeconstructionismpostmodernismtheory of rationalityrationalitymetaphysicsdeconstructionanthropologyArticle
