notes

This is an old revision of the document!


I will figure out how to hide this page later, or find a better way for us to add notes.

Potential topics to add:

H1 1. The development of consciousness in children (Zelazo, etc.). Invite Bill Rowe? 2. What other content can we add here? H2. 1. Add idols, etc. 2. Should we add modern evidence here, such as auditory hallucinations in normals, children, poets, command hallucinations? 3. Evidence from dreams: from bicameral to conscious.

Questions/comments: 1. I think Preconscious Hypostases (p. 259), currently under H1, should be moved to H3, as this has more to do with the dating of the development of consciousness than the relationship of consciousness to language. 2. I think under H3 we need to separate the evidence for dating the transition from bicameral mentality to consciousness (H3) from the evidence for the causes of the breakdown of bicameral mentality.
