preˈsentedness Philos. [f. presented ppl. a. + -ness.] (See quot. 1951.)
1925C. D. Broad Mind & its Place v. 255 The premise..might be derived from an uncritical jump from ‘presentedness’ to ‘presentness’. 1933Mind XLII. 307 It is part of the notion of a specious present that a certain characteristic, which we will call ‘presentedness’, has a maximum value at a certain point in it, and tails off to nothing in two opposite directions within it, viz. towards the point where the perceived past merges into the remembered past, and towards the point where the anticipated future merges into the perceived future. 1951Mind LX. 162 ‘Presentedness’ seems to be Broad's name for the characteristic Hume called ‘force and vivacity’. 1954Mind LXIII. 33 Broad does not explain what he means by ‘presentedness’ beyond saying ‘This is meant to denote a psychological characteristic.’ |
