Recollection, perception, imagination
Philosophical Studies 148:15 - 26 (2010)
Abstract
Remembering a cat sleeping (specifically, recollecting the way the cat looked), perceiving (specifically, seeing) a cat sleeping, and imagining (specifically, visualizing) a cat sleeping are of course importantly different. Nonetheless, from the first-person perspective they are palpably alike. The paper addresses two questions:
Q1. What are these similarities (and differences)?
Q2. How does one tell that one is recalling (and so not perceiving or imagining)?
