Despite what it would mean if he were discovered, he hatches evil plans towards them. He believes that they are conspiring together to betray him. And yet, in the end, he doesn’t actually mind that idea. This is because the fugitive fears loneliness and these thoughts are a very human characteristic. In the same way, there is also a lot of jealousy inside him. Love and immortality The Fugitive: He is the only real person on the island as everybody else is part of the recording. The state of paranoia he reflects on the diary opens the possibility that he is hallucinating. He seems to be educated, yet he does not recall well Tsutomu Sakuma's final message (see "Allusions/references to actual history" below). He also ignores that Villings could not be part of Tuvalu because the islands of this archipelago are atolls. They are flat, barely above sea level, with no hills or cliffs, unlike Villings. His final speech indicates that he is a Venezuelan who is fleeing the law for political reasons.

Toluca: Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México, 1994.Apart from technical difficulties in the evaluation of decoding accuracy of dreaming, there are several phenomenological reasons for which dreaming cannot always offer a reliable description of consciousness. These are described in the dream argument and the functional dissociation argument. The Invention of Morel also inspired films, plays and series such as: the 1961 film El Año Pasado en Marienbad (Last Year in Marienbad), the Lost series, and the 1986 Argentine film Hombre Mirando al Sudeste (Man Looking to the South East), among others. The novel, published in 1940, was the one that opened the way to the genre of science fiction in Spanish America. Dehaene-Lambertz G., Dehaene S., Hertz-Pannier L. (2002).

Senses 38, 3–17 Born into a wealthy family, Bioy Casares was encouraged in his writing, publishing (with the help of his father) his first book in 1929. In 1932 he met Borges, a meeting that resulted in lifelong friendship and literary collaboration. Together they edited the literary magazine Destiempo (1936). Bioy Casares published several books before 1940, including collections of short stories (such as Caos [1934; “Chaos”] and Luis Greve, muerto [1937; “Luis Greve, Deceased”]), but he did not win wide notice until the publication of his novel La invención de Morel (1940; The Invention of Morel).

Schwartz S. (2004). What dreaming can reveal about cognitive and brain functions during sleep: a lexico-statistical analysis of dream reports. Psychol. Belg. 44, 5–42 [ Google Scholar]It has been proposed that a science of consciousness should systematically integrate third-person data, or data about the neurophysiological correlates of conscious states, with first-person data, or data about the distinctive qualities of subjective experience (Chalmers, 2004). Indeed, neurophysiology alone is not sufficient to describe a conscious state without taking into account the first-person's point of view, and vice versa. Very few studies have tried to integrate both kinds of data together (Lutz et al., 2002; Dehaene et al., 2003). Moreover, while great progress has been done regarding our methods for gathering third-person data (e.g., neuroimaging methods or single-cell recording with electrode implantation), to this date there is no sufficient scientific description of subjective conscious experience, apart from verbal report. However, verbal report represents for the scientist only an indirect observation of a person's subjective experiences and is prone to certain limitations: language may misdescribe or may be unable to describe a subjective experience or the person may voluntarily hide or lie about his/her experience (Hospers, 1997, p. 93). Reconstructing auditory attributes, like hearing spoken language was also described ( Formisano et al., 2008; Raizada et al., 2010; Abrams et al., 2011). Most recently, Pasley et al.
