Abstract
This paper investigates Brentano’s modification of the Scholastic concept
of intentionality in his elaboration of his thesis on the intentionality of
consciousness. It argues that though ‘Brentano’s thesis’ cannot be fully
understood
without reference to the original Scholastic concept, Brentano
also gives this concept new meaning in his elaboration of not one but two
descriptive-psychological theses of intentionality, one concerning the intentional
indwelling of an object in consciousness and another concerning
the relatedness of psychical-act experiences to their objects, both of which
are entirely unScholastic.
