Una fenomenologia dell'esperienza

Much of Giovanni Piana's philosophical elaboration aims to build a philosophy of experience; this comes from a critical reinterpretation of the empiricist tradition. Experience is for Piana, on the one hand, perception as a capacity that places us in the presence of objects and precisely in the ways and forms in which it differs and, on the other, all those “ways” that put us in the presence are experience of objects. Therefore, precisely if we broaden the definition, “remembering”, “imagining” and so on, are also an experience. It is possible to determine the modes of operation of every experience, which Piana considers real “structures”. The objective of this essay is to clarify the way in which Giovanni Piana’s Theory of experience is developed within the framework of his phenomenological structuralism.
