The symptoms of depersonalization are examined in the light of the phenomenological views evolved by Franz Brentano. He had come to the conclusion that our conscious experiences are primarily directed towards objects (contents) that are ‘phenomenal’ or ‘intentional’ in the sense that they do not necessarily have counterparts in the external world. In experiencing such an object, a person...

The authors studied retrospectively 78 reports of "near-death experiences using subjects narratives and questionnaires, interviews, and medical records. Prior experiences suggestive of transcendence of death were more common among these subjects than among control populations, but prior experiences suggestive of extrasensory phenomena were less common. Subsequent changes in attitudes were more...

Over the years there have been many reviews of the phenomenology of hallucinogens and schizophrenia. The vast majority of these have been written by scientists who interviewed research subjects and subsequently extracted and summarized the experiences of these subjects. Comparisons of schizophrenia with drug-induced experiences have proven useful in directing further research aimed at...

Paul Ricoeur was one of the foremost interpreters and translators of Edmund Husserl's philosophy. These nine essays present Ricoeur's interpretation of the most important of Husserl's writings, with emphasis on his philosophy of consciousness rather than his work in logic. In Ricoeur's philosophy, phenomenology and existentialism came of age and these essays provide an introduction to the...

Abstract This paper develops a phenomenological account of the therapeutic significance of psychedelic-induced mystical experience, drawing on the philosophy of Maurice Merleau-Ponty. The central argument holds that the enduring therapeutic benefits of psychedelics emerge through a radical transformation in the structure of lived experience. Two prominent objections to the therapeutic value of...

The aim of this paper is to compare the exteroception and general phenomenology of naturally arising, or spontaneous out-of-body experiences (OBEs), sometimes also referred to as extra-corporeal experiences (ECEs) with those that have been induced via the use of hypnotic induction in order to compare their phenomenology. The similarities and differences emerged from this comparison offer a very...

Auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH) have traditionally been thought to be outside the influence of conscious control. However, recent work with voice-hearers makes clear that both treatment-seeking and non-treatment seeking voice-hearers may exert varying degrees of control over their voices. Evidence suggests that this ability may be a key factor in determining health status, but little...

This paper is motivated by what I call the “enigma of time”, the paradox that, on the one hand, the givenness of a temporal entity takes time, i.e., comes in installments and is never complete, while, on the other hand, at each moment of manifestation the entity is grasped as a unity, i.e., “pretends” to be complete. A methodological assumption underlying my investigation is that the paradox...

Digital media have been repeatedly described as disembodying, virtualizing, or abstracting human experience. This article rejects that premise. It argues that the digital does not weaken embodiment but reorganizes it at a fundamental level. Drawing on embodied simulation and phenomenology, I propose a framework of radical aesthetics in which aisthesis—embodied, affective sense-making—is the...
