The Relational View of Perception

Book Description

Relationalism is the view in philosophy of mind that particulars in our environment are constituents of conscious perception. It is an important theory of perceptual experience, offering explanations of perception's phenomenal character and its epistemic and semantic role. However, it has also been criticised for a lack of empirical grounding.

In this outstanding collection, an international team of contributors examine relationalism and consider its role in philosophy of mind and perception across four key areas:

The significance of empirical evidence to the theory of relationalism Dependence of experience on the subject’s internal makeup Hallucinations and the unity of perceptual experience Relationalism and empirical knowledge.

The Relational View of Perception: New Philosophical Essays will be of great interest to advanced students and scholars in philosophy of mind.
