its name. This theory predicts that when we experience the object, the thought about the object becomes associated with a word or symbol. This theory also predicts that meaning is expressed through the relationships of experience/referent, thought/reference, and symbol for experience (Lee, 2017). Ogden and Richards both made contributions to the study of the meaning of…

identity be changed depending on external influences? I will discuss the idea of personal identity with the reference of John Locke’s Essay on Human Understanding, “Of the identity and Diversity”. Locke discusses how personal identity is the continuity of life and consciousness. Referencing section nine, Locke explains that what a person stands for can reflect ones personal identity in a sense. Along with this idea, the mere process of thinking and consciousness gives one the ability to have a…

WHAT SENSE WOULD YOU CHOOSE TO LOSE IF YOU HAD TO LOSE ONE? WHICH SENSE WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE MUCH STRONGER? EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWERS. Of course I would not want to lose any of my senses, but if I had the choice of which one to lose I would pick the sense of smell. There are so many beautiful things in the world to see and hear, that I would not want to lose the ability to do so. The loss of smell can be partial (hyposmia) or (anosmia) which is complete loss (Mayo Clinic, 2017). There are many…

means lacking awareness or perception. While it is true that blindness means unable to see, it doesn’t have to mean that you lack awareness. To compensate for one sense underperforming, or not in use, the other senses tend to pick up some of the perceptual slack. The hearing of someone who is blind may increase beyond the normal sense of a sighted person to make up for this loss, or the perceptions of the sensory sounds are utilized and relied on more heavily. The perception or processing of…

As a one of the animal species, human has various senses with the five traditional senses; taste, smell, touch, sight, and hearing, all other animal species has the different types and outstanding senses with different genetical organism and its lifestyle for surviving. Even if some animal shows very similar direction for use its sense, but, in such cases, there are differences between the frequency of use and…

Introduction Perception is a process by which we organise, integrate and recognise stimuli in order to make sense of the world through meaning and interpretation. Perception begins when the human brain receives data from body’s five senses touch, sight, taste, smell and hearing. Knowledge and experience are extremely important for the concept, perception, this is because they help us make sense of the input to our sensory system. Without being able to organise and interpret sensations, life…

In Italo Calvino 's "The naked bosom," the protagonist Mr. Palomar undergoes an internal conflict of viewing a woman 's bare bosom as she sun-bathes along a beach. Palomar is discreet upon his actions, yet he fails to realize the implications of viewing the woman 's breast in such a derogatory manner. His inner restrictions, specifically society’s perception of nudity, compel his course of actions as he is torn from one thought to another. It is suggested that social conventions related to…

my opinion, understood and had a justifiable explanation of true knowledge which is the better out of the two writers. Locke’s epistemology about true knowledge is that it comes from experience which comes from some kind of substance, like our five senses (sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing). When we see some “thing” we take it into consideration that we don’t know what this thing is. Then our mind “represents” the thing into an idea. We may not know what this thing is until we are told…

As time has progressed forward, the distinction between human senses and reality became clearer. John Donne’s Good Morrow, as well as Margaret Cavendish’s book, The Blazing World, both, discuss nature through battles between reality and the wild perceptions of humans. The Good Morrow demonstrates the human perception of the world through the imaginary telescope of love and sex. The Blazing World demonstrates the struggle to revolutionize scientific methods with particularly the invention of a…
