This volume critically discusses the role empathy plays in different processes of understanding. More precisely, it clarifies empathy’s role in interpersonal understanding and appreciating works of literature and art. The volume also includes a section on historical theories of empathy’s role in understanding.When it comes to understanding other persons, empathy is typically seen as a process that enables the empathizer to recognize a target person’s mental states, a process which is in turn seen as “understanding” this person. This volume, however, explores empathy’s role in understanding beyond mere mental state recognition. With contributions on processes of interpersonal understanding and understanding of literature and art, it provides readers with an overview over both differences and similarities regarding empathy’s epistemic role in two rather different areas. Since important roots of the debate about empathic understanding lie at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth century, the historical section of the volume focusses specifically on this period.Empathy’s Role in Understanding Persons, Literature, and Art will appeal to scholars and advanced students working in the philosophy of mind, epistemology, aesthetics and the history of philosophy, as well as in literary studies and art history.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis .com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.

This volume brings together two philosophical research areas that have been subject to increased attention: work regarding the unique character of having an experience and studies on the nature and powers of imagination.The importance of imagination seems to stand in tension with the assumed unique and irreplaceable role of experience in our lives. However, new arguments in various philosophical debates suggest that there is a need to examine how both areas of research interrelate and can enrich one another. The chapters in this volume examine whether the traditional accounts of experience and imagination need to be challenged. They are divided into thematic sections that discuss epistemological, ontological, normative, phenomenological, and intersubjective questions related to experience and imagination.Imagination and Experience is an essential resource for scholars and advanced students working in philosophy of mind, epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, and philosophy of psychology.Chapters 6, 8, 13, 14, 15, and 19 of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDFs at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 licenses.

Wie man mit Worten Dinge erschafft

Die sprachliche Konstruktion fiktiver Gegenstände

The central question of this book is: How are fictional utterances - like writing a novel or telling campfire tales - described correctly? The author argues for the thesis that even these fictional linguistic utterances has to be described in terms of speech act theory, namely as illocutionary acts. Moreover with these linguistic acts authors or speakers create fictive characters. Those entities are abstract artefacts. Against this background it is possible to analyse fictional utterances as illocutionary acts of the type, John Searle calls declarations. Finally it is shown what this analysis means for the correct description of the acts of reference and predication as parts of fictional utterances.
