in this discussion, approach these questions from very different angles. Reid 's theory is more phenomenological and he advocates direct realism. (Hahn 28 May) In his view, the sensory perception of an object requires that the perceiver has firm confidence in the reality and existence of that object. (Reid 24) Since this certainty is instantaneous, Reid claims that it cannot be the product of inference, meaning that perception must be direct. (25) In contrast, Helmholtz 's theory is deeply…

I chose the object, Marble Grave Stele with Family Group (560 B.C). This object I found interesting because it is a funerary object that do not have a story that is strongly believed to be true. It has two stories that could go either way. The first story is that the woman, who’s body is mostly missing, is the one in which the family to the right is mourning her death. The other story is that the woman is the only one who is mourning the loss of her family; being the sole survivor.…

conversations while driving affected attention to objects encountered in the driving scenery (i.e. billboards). Participants were asked to do a simulated drive, and then asked to identify objects that had and had not been in the driving scene. Researchers found that conversations disrupt driving performance by diverting attention away from the external environment. Results indicated that participants engaged in a conversation identified fewer objects…

Thomasson’s paper, “If We Postulated Fictional Objects, What Would They Be?” introduces the artifactual theory in which fictional characters are ‘abstract artifacts’ created by and depend on their authors for their existence. Under the Meinongian Theory of Objects, anything that the human mind can think of or refer to is an object with a certain ontological statues of either existence,…

it look bigger in size. And when you take the photo with the secondary item with the object in front of the camera it will appear as to be farther away. Close up photo tips: When the camera is close to the object that you are trying to take the picture of it will look more real. The forced perspective technique, it results as it manipulates our human perception with the use of optical illusions to make objects appear larger, smaller, farther, or closer than they actually are.Photography also…

The universe is so big and mysterious that you never know what it’s going to throw at you. When you think you got everything figured out, you encounter a bump on the road. This happens because the universe is so complex and infinite, that we are barely begging to understand it. We are still a very long way into fully understand the universe. Pluto originally discovered in 1930, and later given official planet status by the IAU has been an ongoing debate for decades (Freedman). There are those…

year of speech therapy, Gerald’s articulation improved, but it still takes great effort. He was also severely impaired in his ability to name objects. When his doctor held up a coffee cup, Gerald was unable to name the object, however, he knew it was “something that you hold” and “it holds stuff.” He related his symptoms of not knowing the names of objects to old age. It is already known that Gerald has impaired language production due to his expressive aphasia, also known as Broca’s aphasia.…

that good is, unless, as Moore puts it “such reasons cannot be given. (Moore, 5, 2) Moore sets out to define what we mean by the object of good. He sets out to determine this by comparing it to the color yellow. He comes to the conclusion that both of these objects are simple, indefinable and unanalyzable. This paper will focus on the similarities of these two objects, and critique Moore’s assessment. STRONGER THESIS HERE. What is good? According to Moore, there are 3 possible definitions…
