Essay from the year 2020 in the subject Philosophy - Theoretical (Realisation, Science, Logic, Language), grade: First Class Honours, London School of Economics, language: English, abstract: The question of personal identity can be spelled out as: "What is a sufficient condition for Person X at time 0 to be numerically identical to Person Y at time 1?". This essay will claim that the best account of personal identity consists of three parts; one pre-condition and two necessary conditions: 1. Identity as an equivalence relation (pre-condition), 2.
