Question: For Ryle, what is his philosophical perspective of "self". Make it briefly
Ryle's perspective of "self" is rooted in what he termed 'the ghost in the machine' critique against Cartesian dualism. For him, the concept of "self" is not a separate, non-physical entity, but rather the way a person behaves or performs in their interactions with the world. He views the self as a series of behaviors and the person as the sum total of these behaviors. For Ryle, to know a person is to know their behaviour patterns, not to know some elusive internal substance or soul within them.
