課程概述

本課程是探討知覺與認知的跨領域課程。修課同學不須具備相關背景知識。我們將討論下列議題：何謂「看見」一個東西？我們所擁有的概念能力會不會影響對世界的知覺？對於知覺經驗內容的最佳說明是什麼？我們會引進視覺科學的研究來加以討論，並思考哲學對於這些議題能有什麼貢獻。

This is an interdisciplinary course on the nature of perception and how it provides cognition about the world. Students do not need to have any background in this subject. Both philosophical views and empirical studies will be discussed. We will draw on scientific resources to examine some philosophical issues of perception, including the following: what does it mean to see an object? Do our conceptual capacities affect how we perceive the world? What is the best characterization of the content of perceptual experience? By incorporating vision science into our discussions, we will learn how philosophers may make progress on these issues. 

課程目標
 本課程有三項目標：第一，對知覺與認知的本質能有深入的瞭解。第二，學習如何仔細閱讀哲學作品，並練習使寫作更為清晰。第三，對於一些重要議題能發展出自己的想法。

There are three goals in this course: first, we aim to obtain a deeper understanding of the nature of perception and cognition. Second, students learn how to read philosophical texts carefully and write clearly. Third, students try to develop their own thoughts on some of the important issues.  
課程要求
 1. 學生除了得花功夫研讀困難的哲學作品，在上課時參與討論，評估各種立場的論證，也需要在作業中提出自己的觀點，並加以辯護。

2. Students are required to finish the weekly reading assignment before each class. You will spend significant time in reading and thinking. You are expected to make efforts to read the texts closely, write clearly, and think through the problems. Hopefully, your efforts will be intellectually rewarding.

3. Those who miss either 3 classes, 3 homework assignments, Mid-term Exam, or Final Exam will be failed.
