Franz Brentano
Cechą umysłu jest to, że każdy akt psychiczny jest skierowany na coś – zawsze o czymś myślisz, czegoś chcesz lub się czegoś boisz.
Umiejscowienie
Intencjonalność: każdy akt psychiczny jest skierowany na przedmiot – to odróżnia to, co psychiczne, od tego, co fizyczne.

Intencjonalność jako znamię tego, co psychiczne.
Stanowisko
Brentano wanted to make psychology a rigorous science based on careful description of experience. His decisive insight was that every mental act is directed at something: in perceiving something is perceived, in loving something is loved, in judging something is affirmed or denied. This “intentional inexistence” of an object, he argued, is the mark that distinguishes the mental from the physical. He also developed a theory of judgment and an ethics grounded in correct love and hatred. Through his students the concept of intentionality became the starting point of phenomenology, and it remains central in today’s philosophy of mind.
Życie i kontekst
Brentano, a nephew of the poet Clemens Brentano, was ordained a Catholic priest but left the priesthood in protest against the dogma of papal infallibility. He taught in Würzburg and from 1874 in Vienna, where his students included Husserl, Meinong and Twardowski, and Freud attended his lectures. Having lost his chair after marrying, he spent his last decades in Florence and Zurich.
