I 140
Certainty/Peacocke/(s): demonstrative way of givenness: guarantees that the object has properties that are determined by the perception (not that he has certain properties for sure). - In any case that these properties do not depend on other beliefs.
>Certainty, >Properties, >Observation, >Way of givenness,
>Pointing, cf. >Ostensive definition.
I 140 f
Infallibility/incorrigibility/immunity to error/perception: visual condition: E.g. "This man is bald": infallible in reference of "this man".
>Reference, >Appearance, cf. >Appearance/Sellars,
Peacocke: this is no identification, not of identity with something dependent, which is just not given - "There is (in this perception situation) no one, so he would be bald, but not this man" presented by the perception at this location. - It cannot be that the way of givenness refers to "this box" while this box is not the thing which is cubical.
>Reference.
Hallucination: also in this case the thought "Dummett amuses himself" is a thought about Dummett!
>Hallucination.
I 175
Immunity/infallibility/tradition/Evans: the judgement, to be the judgment of a specific content, can be constituted that this judgement responds to this condition.
>Judgments.
I/Evans: The reference may fail.
>I, Ego, Self, >Self-identification, >Self-reference, cf. >Quasi-indicator.
