Is there a world outside of ourselves?

We (I think!) experience the universe as if we are just a small part of it, yet when we die all our senses (I think!) die with us. This raises a philosophical question about "is what I perceive the same as you?".

Does anyone know of anything that proves the universe exists beyond ourselves? This question has been asked here before. Perhaps it is a tautology and impossible to prove.

As an aside, when I was at university a fellow student was set an essay question:

"Are all truth functional schemas primarily analytic?"  

I did not understand the question then and am still no wiser!
