Abstract

A sound empiricism must attribute a rational meaning to our perceptual experience lest this experience be severed from the universe of our beliefs. On the other hand, perceptual experiences cannot be treated as creations of our own. They must be considered as contributions coming from the world around us. These two requirements can only be met if we conceive our perception as an exercize of our conceptual capacities within the range of our sensorial consciousness.
