    Reasons For

    2 perspectives
    Reason for 1 of 2
    ?
    • 1.Husserl's phenomenology of inner time-consciousness treats retention not as a hiatus but as a continuous living present that is self-identical in its flow.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.If retention is an internal modification of the now rather than a gap, then self-address requires no structural split between speaker and hearer roles.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reason for 2 of 2
    ?
    • 1.Ryle's dispositional account of silent speech treats inner monologue as a functional episode, not a genuine communicative act requiring distinct sender and receiver roles.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.If 'speaking to oneself' is not a real speech act but a disposition to behave linguistically, then positing a structural hearer is an illegitimate reification of a mere functional description.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against
