Sensations represent our subjective ‘take’ on sensory stimulation – how we feel about redlight falling on the retina, salt dissolving on the tongue, a thorn piercing the skin. Theytell – in the language of phenomenal properties – what the experience is like for us. In sofar as they represent the reality of this subjective relationship, they cannot be said to be il-lusory. The relationship, magical as it may seem, is not being misrepresented as some-thing it is not. If anything, it is being represented as something ‘super-real’.

This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...

Illusionists have proposed an explanation for our tendency to make phenomenal judgements, attributing this disposition to introspective illusion that emerge from the functioning of the human brain. However, a crucial aspect of the illusionist approach is that such an illusion is precisely dispositional and does not necessarily lead to actual beliefs about qualia. A critique ...
