EddingtonとStrawsonの汎心論についてのメモ

自分の研究計画の中からボツった一節をとりあえず上げておきます。

Dr. Galen Strawson's argument is based on the idea of the physicist Arthur Eddington, that since science reveals only the structural form of things and not their intrinsic nature, there is nothing that prevents us from ascribing to these things the stuff of consciousness; and that it is in fact silly not to, for we have a direct insight into the intrinsic nature (or in Eddington's words, the "background") of a certain small part of the universe, namely, the consciousness nature of our brain, and it would be pointless to introduce some other nature inconsistent with consciousness, and then wonder where the latter comes from. The natural inference is that it is consciousness all the way down.

課題：Strawsonは論文"Realistic Monism"の中で上記のEddingtonの論法に依拠して汎心論を唱えているが、この論法は彼の別の論文"Panpsychism?"の中で粗描されているミニマルな実体概念（性質によって尽くされてしまうような）と果たして整合するか。
