- Brentano: the Aristotelian theory of psychic inhabitation
- The synergistic model of sensation
- The felt is in the sensing
- Sensation is the joint act (synergy) of the sensing and the feeling
- This is the model Brentano is aiming for when he speaks of inhabitation in Aristotle
- The word Einwohnung is used only once in Psychology in an Aristotelian context: this is where Brentano analyzes the aporia of De anima, 425b15-16, corresponding to the problem known (today) as "conscious sensation": whether sight perceives itself by perceiving colors, or whether hearing perceives its auditory act at the same time as it perceives sounds
- The two models of immanence in the 1867 thesis on Aristotle
- "Subjective immanence", material, physical, of form in matter (the physical subject) and "objective immanence", immaterial, psychic, of form in the soul (the psychic subject)
- Beyond Aristotle with Aristotle: the Brentanian two-object theory
- The two Brentanian theories of the two objects: 'T2O' and 'T2O
- t2O": every psychic act, in addition to its primary object (felt, perceived, thought), contains itself as a secondary object
- "T2O": awareness of perceiving an object contains awareness of the perceived object
- Brentano's readings
- Mark Textor: the Dual Object Thesis: Any presentation directed on f-ing a is also directed upon a (co-presents a)
- Chrudzimski: the "Mediator Theory
- The shock of simplification: the five factors of the intentional relationship
- The two basic principles
- P1: "every psychic phenomenon contains something in itself as an object"
- P2: "every psychic act is accompanied by a correlative consciousness"
- The two fundamental consequences
- C1: every psychic act contains itself as an object
- C2: every psychic act has two objects
- The Brentanian mereological model of the psyche as a structure of self-inclusion
- Brentano's law: as soon as a psychic act is given as an object of concomitant internal knowledge, in addition to its relation to a primary object, it contains itself in totality as represented and known
- Analysis of the relationship of self-inclusion and extension to feeling. An "Aristotelian" Brentanian counterproposal to Augustinian mutual immanence, and to the perichoretic model of the soul
- Self-inclusion is not triple interlocking
- Fusion(Verschmelzung) versus interlocking
- Universality of representation(Vorstellung)
- There is no psychic state without representation
