Perception, philosophy: perceptions are conscious or unconscious processings of changes of state or events in the environment or within a living organism. Perceptions are happening in the present. Memories and imaginations are not perceptions. In language usage the expression of perception is used both for the process of perception and for the perceived.

Donald Davidson on Perception - Dictionary of Arguments
I (c) 40 Perception/Quine/Davidson: no final data, therefore: observation sentences, not observation. (> Observation Sentences/Quine). - See also sense data. - - - McDowell I 167 Receptivity/Davidson/McDowell: can come only from outside the space of reasons. Therefore, nothing can be challenged in terms of their material in a rational way. McDowell I 167 Spontaneity/Davidson/McDowell: it cannot be rationally limited by something outside itself (i.e. receptivity). This is Davidson’s coherence theory. See also other authors on coherence theory._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
