Erotic Perception

Erotic Perception
By:James Waddell
Published on 1997 by University Press of America

This book shows that scientific explanations fall short of providing an exhaustive explanation of the dynamics of erotic perception. The book furnishes portraits from Sarte, Merleau-Ponty, Levinas, and Irigaray that help us understand the ethical, ontological, and religious dimensions of the pleasure, pain, hostility, shame, immodesty, tenderness, caring, and playfulness that compose erotic perception. The final portrait in the book portrays erotic perception as a challenge to existence. This portrait shows that the discernment of the other as sexually significant gives rise to wonder, excitement, agitation, and trouble. The totality of existence is disturbed as we are faced with a decision about venturing to care for the other's existence.
