Fenomenologia trascendentale e cognizione incarnata. La relazione tra soggetto, corpo e mondo nel quadro di un’ontologia naturale riformata
Rivista Internazionale di Filosofia e Psicologia December 27, 2024 Edoardo Fugali
This work compares enactivist cognitive science with classical phenomenology, focusing on Husserl, Heidegger, and Merleau-Ponty. It argues that the relationship between subject, body, and world, along with action's mediating role, supports a dynamic conception of cognition. The transcendental perspective of embodied subjectivity shows continuity among action, perception, and higher cognition, challenging mind-body duality. The text also critiques physicalist naturalism, advocating for a weak naturalism compatible with a transcendental view that grounds subjectivity in an embodied biological organism. An ontology of nature, inspired by Merleau-Ponty, emphasizes qualitative aspects of the “flesh” and overcomes limitations in Husserl's approach.
