Lemon and Honey
From UrsinusWiki
Using Merleau-Ponty's examples of lemon and honey, taken from Exploring the World of Perception: Sensory Objects as an example, describe the qualities of an object/space that has left a lasting impression on you. If you decide to discuss a particular "space" please be sure to consider Exploring the World of Perception: Space supplemental readings "i" I would like you to first consider the object/space as it relates to the autonomous you, what are your perceptions/experiences, but then also to consider how others might engage this object/space. Be creative but stay focused on the phenomenological methods Merleau-Ponty sets fourth.
Some of you may find yourself in accord with these methods but others may find that they do not correspond with your individual perspective. Whether you write in support of, or in critique of, the methodologies of Phenomenology is up to you but what is paramount is that you accurately reference in your essay the foundations of Phenomenology and the two Merleau-Ponty essays in particular.
Please note that you will most likely also need to do some secondary research using the library and internet.
The paper should be between 5-7 pages and is due by 5pm 2/18 via email[1]
