Solideism – a version of solipsism
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper marks the first extensive attempt to articulate the view I have termed solideism. I begin by exploring various interpretations of solipsism, as solideism represents a particular version of it, and establish a schematic formulation for solipsism. Following a brief overview of absolute idealism, I reconstruct F. C. S. Schiller’s argument that absolute idealism inevitably leads to solipsism. Building on Schiller’s reasoning, along with my own argument against solipsism (developed in a separate paper), I derive an absolute form of solipsism – solideism. Lastly, I offer observations on the order structure of the set of all solipsisms.
