Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the development and philosophies of Maine de Biran's early psychological observations. De Biran is regarded as one of the forefathers of introspection and vitalism, and his work greatly influenced philosophers of consciousness and volition. The author focuses on the themes of sensation, perception, and the differences between mental and bodily experience in de Biran's system. The book discusses the concept of a "sixth sense", which de Biran suggests underpins our ability to move, as well as his theories on attention and memory. Biran's metaphysics of consciousness is a fascinating and complex subject, with particular relevance to contemporary philosophical discussions on the nature of embodied and situated cognition.
