Abstract
How do we know our own mind? What kind of relationship we have with our own mental states? Are we the passive observers of mental events that populate our mind or do we have with them a first-person relation? The opposition to Cartesianism and the affirmation of naturalism in philosophy of mind have coincided with the triumph of a third-person perspective, of an observational kind, on our own mental states. However, there are manifest phenomenological reasons to maintain that the relation that we have with our own mental states is not primarily of a spectatorial and observational kind.
