Subject [in representation]
1865 | Logic of the Sciences | W 1:327
Representation implies first an object represented; 2nd a mind or rather abstracting from the personal element, a representation (itself or other) to which it addresses itself. I call this the subject. 3rd a Ground or Reason which determines it to represent that object to that subject. We have nothing else implied in the representation as representation.
