M. Dummett on Perception - Dictionary of Arguments
I 52 Context here: Husserl, noema, means of perception: Vs Direct perception of "uninterpreted given conditions" Noema: he perceives by means of the noema, but does not perceive it himself nor does he capture it in any other way. >Noema/Husserl. I 55 DummettVsHusserl: His assertion that slipping into idealism will be prevented by the distinction between noema and object is not easily understandable. We cannot say that the subject only perceives the object indirectly, as it is mediated by the noema. because there is no concept of direct perception which we could expose to this. I 64 There can be no vocabulary of characteristics of sensations if one considers them as something that is not affected by their interpretation as perception of an external reality. And if such a vocabulary were be possible, we could not use it. I 94 Husserl: perception is not the act in which the meaning lies. - There can be one perception but different statements (sense). - Or one statement (sense) and different perceptions. Def noema: generalization of the concept of meaning "nothing more than a generalization of the idea of the meaning to all the acts. I 96f Dummett: what exactly is the noema of sensory perception? Wrong: to identify the noema with sensations. >Noema/Dummett. I 36 DummettVsHusserl: the noema is not linguistically deducible. I 99 Def Hyle: sensations are described by Husserl collectively as Hyle. He understands them just like Frege. Only through the noema the act of perception gets an object. Therefore noema and meaning are something that refers to an object in the external world beyond itself. I 99 Dummett: Sensations, however, do not refer to anything, we just have them._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
