The focus is on issues of philosophy ofmind and of anthropology, on the theory of emotion, psychology and history of art. The feeling of experience is to be understood as a fundamental, undirected experience of being alive which can be integrated both in a nature-based theory of the organism and in theories of the specific constitution of human experience.
