Observation/Perception/Galileo/Feyerabend: plays partly a better and partly a worse role in our knowledge.
I 92
Reason/Perception/Feyerabend: the use of reason does not change the impression in the least! But it is linked to new observational statements and now plays a new role. (Partly better, partly worse).
Observation/Perception/Observation Language/Feyerabend: there are no two acts, the perception of a phenomenon and its expression in the statement, but only one, namely that one fails in a certain situation or thinks "the moon is following me..." or "The stone falls in a straight line".
>Observation language, >Perception.
Feyerabend: it is not true that the structure of the perceptions is independent of its linguistic expression!
I 94
Natural Interpretation/Feyerabend: mental operations that are so closely linked to the senses that a separation is difficult. Natural interpretations are learned!
Natural Interpretation/Intellectual History/Feyerabend: depends, either a-priori presuppositions (Kant) or advantages (Bacon). >Interpretation.},
