Zusammenfassung
This thesis gives an overview of the topic of personal identity from a philosophical viewpoint, describing both numerical and qualitative aspects. Reductionist approaches to numerical identity, such as the neo-Lockean psychological continuity theory of Derek Parfit or the physical criterion theory of Bernard Williams, are subject to a discussion. Apart from some significant criticisms in detail, there is the more general problem that they appear to imply a kind of neo-dualism. As a consequence, the author suggests a holistic approach to numerical personal identity which is more in accord with our times, placing the body firmly at the center of focus. The section on qualitative identity aims to develop a more complex theory of psychological continuity and continuity per se than that generally found in the literature. The suggestion is made that the most viable way to bring together the various strands of personal identity, both numerical and qualitative, is a concept of narrativity. Narratives are both indicative of and constitutive of personal identity.
Zusammenfassung in einer weiteren Sprache
Diese breit angelegte Arbeit gibt einen Überblick über die Problematik personaler Identität aus philosophischer Sicht. Es werden sowohl numerische als auch qualitative Aspekte der Identität berücksichtigt. Reduktionistische Ansatze in der numerischen Identität, zum Beispiel die psychologische Kontinuitätstheorie von Derek Parfit und die physische Kontinuitätstheorie von Bernard Williams werden zur Diskussion gestellt. Abgesehen von einzelnen Kritikpunkten, implizieren beide eine Art Neo-Dualismus, der vom Autor nicht befürwortet wird. Stattdessen steht ein holistischer Ansatz im Zentrum der Arbeit, mit dem Fokus auf den Körper. In der Beschreibung der qualitativen Identität wird eine komplexe Theorie der Kontinuität bzw. der psychologischen Kontinuität dargestellt, die über gängige Darstellungen hinaus geht. Die unterschiedlichen Fäden des Themas der personalen Identität werden in Form der Narrativen Identität zusammengefügt.
