The book puts forward a \"multiple drafts\" model of consciousness, suggesting that there is no single central place where conscious experience occurs; instead there are \"various events of content-fixation occurring in various places at various times in the brain\". The brain consists of a \"bundle of semi-independent agencies\"; when \"content-fixation\" takes place in one of these, its effects may propagate so that it leads to the utterance of one of the sentences that make up the story in which the central character is one's \"self\". Dennett's view of consciousness is that it is the apparently serial account for the brain's underlying parallelism. One of the book's more controversial claims is that qualia do not (and cannot) exist. Dennett's main argument is that the various properties attributed to qualia by philosophers—qualia are supposed to be incorrigible, ineffable, private, directly accessible and so on—are incompatible, so the notion of qualia is incoherent. The non-existence of qualia would mean that there is no hard problem of consciousness, and \"philosophical zombies\", which are supposed to act human in every way while somehow lacking qualia, cannot exist. So, as Dennett wryly notes, he is committed to the belief that we are all zombies—adding that his remark is very much open to misinterpretation. A key philosophical method is heterophenomenology, in which the verbal or written reports of subjects are treated as akin to a theorist's fiction–the subject's report is not questioned, but it is not assumed to be an incorrigible report about that subject's inner state. This approach allows the reports of the subject to be a datum in psychological research, thus circumventing the limits of classical behaviorism. Also Dennett says that only a theory that explained conscious events in terms of unconscious events could explain consciousness at all. There is disagreement about the validity of Dennett's arguments. Critics of Dennett's approach, such as David Chalmers and Thomas Nagel, argue that Dennett's argument misses the point of the inquiry by merely re-defining consciousness as an external property and ignoring the subjective aspect completely. This has led detractors to nickname the book Consciousness Ignored and Consciousness Explained Away. Dennett and his supporters, however, respond that the aforementioned \"subjective aspect\" as commonly used is non-existent, and that his \"re-definition\" is the only coherent description of consciousness. Dennett himself actually used \"Consciousness Explained Away\" as a heading inside the book."@en , "La Conscience expliqu\u00E9e est un livre publi\u00E9 par Daniel Dennett en 1991, tentant d'expliquer ce qu'est la conscience et ses m\u00E9canismes en faisant largement appel aux sciences cognitives. La traduction fran\u00E7aise du livre, assur\u00E9e par Pascal Engel, fut publi\u00E9e aux \u00C9ditions Odile Jacob en 1993. L'auteur passe en revue les interpr\u00E9tations classiques de la philosophie de la conscience et les exemples qu'elles sont cens\u00E9es expliquer (l'id\u00E9e du cerveau dans une cuve, par exemple), en opposant notamment les traditions cart\u00E9siennes et ph\u00E9nom\u00E9nologiques. Il explique en quoi l'hypoth\u00E8se de l'homoncule est absurde et renvoie donc les partisans du dualisme corps-esprit dos-\u00E0-dos. En fondant son argumentaire sur les connaissances r\u00E9centes en informatique, en psychologie et en neurosciences, Dennett propose une th\u00E9orie de la conscience qu'il baptise \"mod\u00E8le des versions multiples\" (multiple draft model). Selon cette th\u00E9orie des faits simples comme \u00E9laborer la prochaine phrase que l'on va \u00E9noncer ou faire un choix ne sont en r\u00E9alit\u00E9 qu'un r\u00E9sultat obtenu au terme d'une comp\u00E9tition darwinienne. Il s'oppose en cela \u00E0 ce qu'il appelle le Th\u00E9\u00E2tre cart\u00E9sien qui est l'id\u00E9e, h\u00E9rit\u00E9 du dualisme cart\u00E9sien, qu'il y aurait un endroit dans le cerveau qui correspondrait au si\u00E8ge de la pens\u00E9e o\u00F9 un homoncule recevrait les informations perceptives, prendrait les d\u00E9cisions et d\u00E9clencherait les r\u00E9ponses comportementales."@fr ; rdfs:comment "La Conscience expliqu\u00E9e est un livre publi\u00E9 par Daniel Dennett en 1991, tentant d'expliquer ce qu'est la conscience et ses m\u00E9canismes en faisant largement appel aux sciences cognitives.
