Abstract

My lecture is based on R. Ingarden formal- and existentional-ontological assigments. I am going to precise vital conditions (and perchanse sufficient ones) of a human being’s identity as a psychophysical individual. A human being is admittedly one of many things being in time, however it is also a creature that exists in a conscious way.  As R. Ingarden affirmed this circumstance allows it, at least to some degree, to overcome destructive sternght of time. Today, when over sixty years have passed by since R. Ingarden announced his assignments, the question that arises is wheather the science has done an important turn in relation to that assignments (in their stricte philosophical dimension), in particular whaether it confirmed them or opposite – overthorown them? In order to answer this question it seems to be necessary to take into accout the way of understanding a human being that is presented in neorocognitivists’ and the newest mind philosophy re- searches.
