Will, Comprehension, External Objects

That the immediate matter of Comprehension is Will entails that the knowledge of external objects is mediated by Motility. Hence, the fundamental stratum of that knowledge is a modification of Motility, i. e. impassability, which can be attributed to an external object as 'resistance'. So, theories which propose that sensory interaction is that fundamental stratum fail to recognize that the occurrence of a sense datum, prior to being considered in itself, constitutes an impediment in the range of the relevant sense. Likewise, Pragmatists who hold that instrumentality informs that fundamental stratum overlook the sheer there-ness of an object that hinders Motility. Hence, the meaning of the verb 'object' is closer to that of the concept of an object of Comprehension than are the various common meanings of the noun 'object'.
