Research Abstract |
In Locke's theory of knowledge and consciousness presented in the Essay concerning the Human Understanding, as well as in Leibniz' metaphysics and theory of consciousness elaborated in the Discourse of Metaphysics, New Essays concerning the Human Understanding, Monadology etc., it revealed that the self-consciousness of the I or the Ego is possible only in relation with something beyond of the consciousness itself and, in ultimate instance, with God as the infinite intelligence.
