Enkinaesthesia
proto-moral value in action-enquiry and interaction
pp. 411-431
Abstrakt
It is now generally accepted that human beings are naturally, possibly even essentially, intersubjective. This chapter offers a robust defence of an enhanced and extended intersubjectivity, criticising the paucity of individuating notions of agency and emphasising the community and reciprocity of our affective co-existence with other living organisms and things. I refer to this modified intersubjectivity, which most closely expresses the implicit intricacy of our pre-reflective neuro-muscular experiential entanglement, as "enkinaesthesia'. The community and reciprocity of this entanglement is characterised as dialogical, and in this dialogue, as part of our anticipatory preparedness, we have a capacity for intentional transgression, feeling our way with our world but, more particularly, co-feeling our way with the mind and intentions of the other. Thus we are, not so much "mind'-reading, as "mind'-feeling, and it is through this enkinaesthetic "mind'-feeling dialogue that values-realising activity originates and we uncover the deep roots of morality.
