12. Knowledge Sources / B. Perception / 3. Representation

21215	The representation may not be a likeness [Velarde-Mayol]
	Full Idea: Representationalism is the doctrine that maintains that the object is represented in consciousness by means of an image. ...One should not confuse an image with a likeness.
	From: Victor Velarde-Mayol (On Husserl [2000], 2.4.3)
	A reaction: Helpful reminder that sense-data or whatever may not be a likeness. But then how do they represent? Symbolic representation needs massive interpretation.
