Abstract

The notion of qualia (as qualitative Properties of our conscious experiences) is introduced through discussion of Daniel Dennett's Paper »Quining qualia«, where Dennett tries to show that the traditional concept of qualia is so thoroughly confused, arguing that it should be completely abandoned. Choosing the eliminative materialist's position, he denies the existence of qualia as mental properties. The Author's intention is to show that Dennett’s arguments for denying the existence of qualia are, at least, not conclusive.
