Abstract

What can we say about reality as such, the reality of the world around us? How can we explain, understand our universe and everything in it? As argued in chapter two, human experiences are real but real on different levels. Some are merely real in a subjective way while others real in an intersubjective manner. Because humans are intertwined with the reality they live in, they cannot describe reality as it really is. They have to conceptualize reality in order to understand and describe it. It is here the philosophical question comes in, what do we mean by the concept of reality?
