yes. there was a typo. The quote should read:
in _Mental Reality_, Second Ed., Galen Strawson quotes Frege as saying
"An experience is impossible without an experiencer" and then comments:
"This is a necessary truth. ... There cannot be experience without a
subject of experience, because experience is necessarily for someone or
something --- an experiencer or subject of experience." [p. 129]
>What is the relationship between the experience and the experiencer?
an experiencer experiences experiences?
an experiencer has experiences?
