The Problem of ‘Truths of Subjectivity’

The article is devoted to the problem of perception and awareness of internal structural moments and states of subjectivity, read as true, adequately perceived by the personality. The author believes that the ‘truths of subjectivity’ can be interpreted as intentionally or unintentionally given data, that their complete purity and reliability does not happen due to the temporal distance from the impressions arising in reflection. However, from the author’s point of view, the topics related to self-deception are ratherimportant for practical life: in this case images, states and meanings become distorted, influencing on human behavior. Such self-deception,
however, is not complete, as it preserves the core of the true impression of self-perception. The distinguishing feature of the elements of subjectivity, which are perceived by the human as true, consists in their interpretive nature. The contents of subjectivity are interpreted from different points of view: they are refracted through language as through the standards of corporal experience, obtained largely from the outside. These contents fall into the structural form of ‘retrospective-perspective’, which puts them in the context of the view from the positions of the past or from the positions of the future. The article concludes with a meditation on
the ‘true contents of subjectivity’ concerning their cultural standard and the faculty to transform the actually existing states into the model perfect states.
