| Subject, philosophy: the subject is, in the most general sense, the originator of actions and creativity as well as bearer of ideas, beliefs, perceptions, feelings and moods. In the tradition of German idealism the subject is opposed to the object. More recently, there has been a shift in the focus of the discussion to questions of access to internal states. See also I, self, subjectivity, object, idealism, actions, action theory._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.

This is an inner mediation. The two moments are not mutually related to each other, but the analysis of each one in itself points to its opposite as an imitation of a sense. >Mediation. Transcendental subject: therefore, the transcendental subject implies the Kantian "I think that must be able to accompany all my ideas", thus it implies the most formal determination of egoism, a real. >I think, >I think/Kant, >cogito, >Apprehension, >Apperception._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
