Intentionalism also holds that E’, like E, can be described intentionally, in terms of how it represents the world as being.

We have so far seen how experience, in virtue of its phenomenology, deserves an independent treatment within the philosophy of mind, and how that is the case independently of one’s stand on intentionality.
