Sensation, perception and immediacy: Mead and Merleau-ponty
Southwest Philosophy Review 6 (1):105-111 (1990)
| Abstract | A focus on the relation between sensation and the perceptual object in the philosophies of G H Mead and Maurice Merleau-Ponty points toward their shared views of perception as non-reductionistic and holistic, as inextricably tied to the active role of the sensible body, and as involving a new understanding of the nature of immediacy within experience. This essay explores these shared views. | |||||||||
