Bag om Sensation and Intuition

Sensation and Intuition: Studies in Psychology and Aesthetics is a book written by James Sully, a British psychologist and philosopher. The book is a collection of essays that explore the relationship between sensation and intuition in the fields of psychology and aesthetics. The first part of the book focuses on sensation, examining the ways in which we perceive the world around us through our senses. Sully discusses the different types of sensations, such as visual, auditory, and tactile, and how they are processed by the brain. He also explores the role of attention in sensation and the ways in which our perceptions can be influenced by factors such as expectation and context.The second part of the book turns to intuition, which Sully defines as a form of knowledge that is not based on logical reasoning or empirical evidence. He examines the nature of intuition and its relationship to other forms of knowledge, such as perception and memory. Sully also explores the role of intuition in creativity and artistic expression, arguing that intuition plays a crucial role in the aesthetic experience.Throughout the book, Sully draws on examples from literature, art, and everyday life to illustrate his points. He also engages with the work of other psychologists and philosophers, including William James and Henri Bergson. Sensation and Intuition: Studies in Psychology and Aesthetics is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of two fundamental aspects of human experience.1880.
