Abstract

The purpose of this article is to examine the possibility of immediate against mediated or theoretical knowledge. However, in both types of knowledge, there is a face toface confrontation. I encounter something which I wish to apprehend. Therefore, aspirationalready assumes a duality, a gulf between me and that which faces me. The object is, as itwere, already there, autonomous, present as a fact. This is, of course, a basic tenet ofpositivism and empiricism. The world as summation of all its possible contents is simply'given'. This article also tries to enquire a little further into this perspective, questioning thenature of this objectivity exploring possible ambiguities. I shall be looking mostly atKantian transcendentalism and Husserlian and Merleapontian phenomenology.
