Nyíri Kristóf. Meaning and motoricity

Frankfurt am Main: Peter Lang GmbH, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften, 2014. — 152 p. — ISBN10: 9783631651346; ISBN13: 978-3631651346There is an intrinsic connection between the notions of image and time. Visual images can strike us as incomplete, as ambiguous, unless they are moving ones, happening in time. However, time cannot be conceptualized except by metaphors, and so ultimately by images, of movement in space. The philosophy of images and the philosophy of time are interdependent. This book argues for the reality of time and for visual images as natural carriers of meaning. The experience of the passage of time, of the reality of time, is embodied and made visible in the bodily gestures of time, and indeed in all our gestures. Meaning, both emotional and cognitive, is grounded in the motor dimension. By implication, no meaningful philosophy of time can neglect the aspect of motor imagery.Visualization and the Horizons of Scientific Realism
