Abstract

Based on the analysis of Davidsonian notion of action, this paper is an attempt to show the difference between the action as caused by an agent and the action as intentionally described. So, on the one hand, in the being level there is not a class of actions which is the particular class of intentional actions but, on the other hand, in the saving level there is not a class of actions which is not the particular class of intentional actions: paradoxically, the only class of actions includes actions as caused by an agent but, as such, the actions cannot be described.
