商品簡介
The extended-mind thesis (EMT), usually attributed to Andy Clark and David Chalmers,proposes that in specific kinds of mind-body-world interaction there emerges an extended cognitivesystem incorporating such extracranial supports as pencils, papers, computers, and other objects andenvironments in the world. In Feeling Extended, Douglas Robinson accepts thethesis, but argues that the usual debate over EMT -- which centers on whether mindreally (literally, actually, materially) extends to body and world or onlyseems to -- oversimplifies the issue. When we say that mindfeels as if it extends, Robinson argues, what extends is precisely feeling -- andmind, insofar as it arises out of feeling.
Robinson explores the world of affectand conation as intermediate realms of being between the physical movements of body and thequalitative movements of mind. He shows that affect is transcranial and tends to becomeinterpersonal conation. Affective-becoming-conative sociality, he argues, is in fact the primaryarea in which body-becoming-mind extends. To make his case, Robinson draws on a wide spectrum ofphilosophical thought -- from the EMT and qualia debates among cognitivists to the prehistory ofsuch debates in the work of Hegel and Peirce to continental challenges to Hegelianism from Bakhtinand Derrida -- as well as on extensive empirical research in social psychology and importantsociological theories of face (Goffman), ritual (Connerton), and habitus (Bourdieu).
