Abstract

"Perception is one of the oldest and most deeply investigated topics in the field of psychology, and it is also raises some profound philosophical questions. It is concerned with how we use the information reaching our senses to guide and control our behaviour as well as to create our particular, subjective experiences of the surrounding world. In this Very Short Introduction, Brian J. Rogers discusses the philosophical question of what it means to perceive, as well as describing how we are able to perceive the particular characteristics of objects and scenes such as their lightness, colour, form, depth, and motion. What we perceive, however, does not always correspond to what exists in the world and, as Rogers shows, the study of illusions can be useful in telling us something about the nature and limitations of our perceptual processes. Rogers also explores perception from an evolutionary perspective, explaining how evolutionary pressures have shaped the perceptual systems of humans and other animals. He shows that perception is not necessarily a separate and independent process but rather part of a 'perceptual system', involving both the extraction of perceptual information and the control of action. Rogers goes on to cover the significant progress made recently in the understanding of perception through the use of precise and controlled psychophysical methods, single cell recordings, and imaging techniques. There have also been many insights from attempts to model perceptual processes in artificial systems. As Rogers shows, these attempts have revealed how difficult it is to programme machines to perform even the most simple of perceptual tasks that we take for granted."

Abstract

Le dictionnaire Marcel Proust a pour objectif de réunir la somme des connaissances actuelles sur Proust et son œuvre. Le projet de consacrer un dictionnaire à Proust se justifie par la notoriété du plus grand romancier français du XXe siècle, par la transformation, depuis cinquante ans, de notre savoir relatif à l'auteur de la Recherche et à l'ensemble de ses écrits. Une équipe de trente-sept spécialistes internationaux a consacré un millier d'articles aux personnages, aux personnes réelles, aux lieux fictifs et réels qui figurent dans son œuvre. Chaque écrit de Proust fait le sujet d'une entrée qui rappelle la date de la première publication, depuis les devoirs du lycéen jusqu'aux notes posthumes. D'importants articles de synthèse concernent l'homme et l'éc rivain, les prédécesseurs et contemporains, la pensée de Proust, l'œuvre, les thèmes et notions et la critique proustienne
