Augustine on Reflection - Dictionary of Arguments
Bubner I 138 Reflection/Augustine/Bubner: what happens in reflexion? Surely it is not a straightforward reflection. There is a core of the ego that is not questioned. But in meditation is uncertain who or what I am. God, who is not the partner of the conversation, still forms the reference point. Objective: Discovery of one's own self. Doubt/Augustine: Doubt and deception mean a defect, which, however, cannot be understood without the idea of perfection that compensates for the defect._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
