Abstract
VERISSIMO, Danilo Saretta. Phenomenology of perception: theoretical foundations and research scenarios. Psicol. pesq. [online]. 2021, vol.15, n.1, pp. 1-18. ISSN 1982-1247. http://dx.doi.org/10.34019/1982-1247.2021.V15.29674.
In this text, we deal with theoretical foundations of the phenomenology of perception, as well as some of its thematic developments, mainly those directed to what we call ethics of perception. Among the points discussed in the text, the following stand out: the analysis, based on the phenomenological description of perception, of perceptual perspectivism, which preserves the transcendence of the perceived; the examination of the reference systems involved in the perceptual experience; the awareness of the role of the body in the phenomenal field, with the recognition of the overlap between perception and movement, and the plastic dimension of the sensitive experience; and the social character of perception. Such elements allow us to investigate the relationship between sensitive life and the institution of new dimensions of existence, an axis for problematizing an ethos of perception.
