Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a critical examination of "immediate experience" and its role in shaping philosophical thought. The author traces the historical trajectory of this concept, highlighting its significance in the works of renowned philosophers such as Bradley, Whitehead, and Dewey. The exploration begins by contrasting classical Greek philosophy, where knowledge was viewed as a functional and active process, with the modern emphasis on immediate experience as the foundation of knowledge. The author dissects the limitations of this modern approach, exposing the challenges it poses for comprehending the complexities of human experience. Through a meticulous analysis of the works of Bradley, Whitehead, and Dewey, the book reveals the nuanced ways in which these philosophers grappled with the concept of immediate experience. Their diverse perspectives shed light on the inherent tensions and paradoxes within this notion, prompting a reevaluation of its role in philosophical inquiry. Ultimately, this book challenges readers to move beyond a simplistic understanding of immediate experience and embrace a more holistic view of knowledge that acknowledges the interplay of thought, feeling, and the world around us. The author's insights provide a valuable framework for navigating the complexities of human experience and understanding the enduring quest for knowledge.
