This chapter argues for the concept of kinaesthesis as a transcendental subjective form of perception. Such a concept makes it possible to distinguish proprioception as one of the channels of bodily feedback from kinaesthesis as a transcendental dimension and egoic capacity over one’s own body. Husserl’s analysis of the coupling between the series of ocular kinaesthetics and the series of visual (tactile) appearances clearly showed that it is not a matter of feedback, analysis of sensation or proprioception, or even of kinaesthesis confused with proprioception, but of the transcendental necessity that each experienced appearance corresponds to a certain kinaesthetic configuration. The kinaesthetic configuration is a priori for every sensory experience. It is also a priori for proprioceptive experience. This allows one to move away from the psychophysical concept of kinesthetics and to explore it with a philosophical and phenomenological method based on phenomenological reduction.

摘要

This chapter argues for the concept of kinaesthesis as a transcendental subjective form of perception. Such a concept makes it possible to distinguish proprioception as one of the channels of bodily feedback from kinaesthesis as a transcendental dimension and egoic capacity over one’s own body. Husserl’s analysis of the coupling between the series of ocular kinaesthetics and the series of visual (tactile) appearances clearly showed that it is not a matter of feedback, analysis of sensation or proprioception, or even of kinaesthesis confused with proprioception, but of the transcendental necessity that each experienced appearance corresponds to a certain kinaesthetic configuration. The kinaesthetic configuration is a priori for every sensory experience. It is also a priori for proprioceptive experience. This allows one to move away from the psychophysical concept of kinesthetics and to explore it with a philosophical and phenomenological method based on phenomenological reduction.
