PF Strawson and AJ Ayer: Perception: Raw Like Sushi? (Part 2)

In this second episode of a three part series on PF Strawson's 1978 lecture Perception and Its Objects, I focus on Strawson's criticism of AJ Ayer's portrayal of the average adult human's process of perception. Through his criticism of Ayer's account, Strawson elaborates on the features of his own account - what he calls a real realism but what PF Snowden calls a relaxed realism. Can we divide our perceptual experiences into a division of raw data and theory? Strawson attempts to answer this question and comes to some Kantian conclusions.
