Tennessen and the problem of conceptual schemes
James M Brown , James Christian Brown, Robert Brown
pp. 17-21
After surveying some of the interesting aspects of perception, Tennessen argues that we 'seem to need something like a world view, a global conceptual scheme, a conceptual frame of reference." There is, Tennessen quite rightly claims, no such thing as a neutral given. The belief that there could be something prior to any theory, a pristine "testimony of the senses," is nothing more than a myth; we can see only from some "point of view" or other.
