Resumo: | In his essayAvoiding the Myth of the Given(AMG), McDowell gives a new charac-terization both of the content of perceptual experience and of the way in which it enables asubject to know. This new characterization has been charged to give rise to a “pluralism anxi-ety”. The goal of this paper is to explore in detail possible problems linked with the pluralismthat arise from McDowell’s change of mind about the content of perceptual experience, andto evaluate whether McDowell has conceptual resources to avoid them. The structure of thepaper will be the following: first we will reconstruct in detail McDowell’s revised view on per-ceptual experience as it is presented in AMG; then, we will reconstruct arguments in supportof the claim that McDowell’s revised position could give rise to a pluralism anxiety; finallyyet importantly we will discuss whether it is possible to offer an interpretation of McDowell’sposition which offers a way out of such difficulties. |

McDowell's revised view of perceptual experience and the threat of the "pluralism anxiety"A visão revisada de McDowell acerca da experiência perceptual e a ameaça da “ansiedade pluralista”In his essayAvoiding the Myth of the Given(AMG), McDowell gives a new charac-terization both of the content of perceptual experience and of the way in which it enables asubject to know. This new characterization has been charged to give rise to a “pluralism anxi-ety”.

Esta nova caraterização tem sido acusada de gerar uma “ansiedade pluralista” (Corti 2017). Escopo deste artigo é reconstruir os problemas que, segundo Corti (2017), surgem a partir da virada argumentativa do filósofo, assim como avaliar se McDowell tem à disposição recursos conceituais para esquivar-se às críticas. Para isso, contamos com a seguinte estrutura de texto: 1. reconstruiremos em detalhe a posição revisada de McDowell acerca da experiência perceptual tal como ela foi exposta em AMG; 2. reconstruiremos o argumento de Corti (2017) acerca da possibilidade de que a nova posição de McDowell implique no surgimento de uma “ansiedade pluralista”; 3. discutiremos se é possível fornecer uma interpretação da posição de McDowell que ofereça uma saída para tal ansiedade.

In his essayAvoiding the Myth of the Given(AMG), McDowell gives a new charac-terization both of the content of perceptual experience and of the way in which it enables asubject to know. This new characterization has been charged to give rise to a “pluralism anxi-ety”. The goal of this paper is to explore in detail possible problems linked with the pluralismthat arise from McDowell’s change of mind about the content of perceptual experience, andto evaluate whether McDowell has conceptual resources to avoid them. The structure of thepaper will be the following: first we will reconstruct in detail McDowell’s revised view on per-ceptual experience as it is presented in AMG; then, we will reconstruct arguments in supportof the claim that McDowell’s revised position could give rise to a pluralism anxiety; finallyyet importantly we will discuss whether it is possible to offer an interpretation of McDowell’sposition which offers a way out of such difficulties. |
