The Nature of the Mind

In Stephen Gaukroger (ed.), Blackwell Guide to Descartes’ Meditations (2006)
Abstract IN this paper I explain how Descartes's conception of the mind was novel in relation to Aristotelian scholasticism. I also argue against the standard view that Descartes believed in transparency of the mental, the view that one cannot make mistakes about one's own mental states.
