Phenomenology of Thinking
Philosophical Investigations into the Character of Cognitive Experiences
By Christopher Gutland, Thiemo Breyer | Publisher: Taylor and Francis
About the book
This book draws connections between recent advances in analytic philosophy of mind and insights from the rich phenomenological tradition concerning the nature of thinking. By combining both analytic and continental approaches, the volume arrives at a more comprehensive understanding of the mental process of \"thinking\" and the experience and manipulation of objects of thought. Contributors scrutinize aspects of thinking that have a common grounding in both the phenomenological and analytic tradition: perception, language, logic, embodiment and situatedness due to individual history or current experience. This collection serves to broaden and enrich the current debate over \"cognitive phenomenology,\" and lays the foundations for further dialogue between analytic and continental approaches to the phenomenal character of thinking.
