According to P.F. Strawson :
Answer: C
For Strawson, the concept of a person is logically primitive.
In Individuals (1959), P. F. Strawson argues that a person is a type of entity to which both states of consciousness and bodily characteristics are ascribed. The concept cannot be analysed into a mind plus a body; it is prior to, not built out of, the concepts of mind and body.
Option D is the Cartesian picture Strawson rejects. Calling material bodies or minds primitive leaves the person derivative, which is again what he denies.
