Our experience of other individuals as minded beings goes hand in
hand with the awareness that they have a unique epistemic and
emotional perspective on the experienced objects and situations.
The same object can be seen from many different points of view, an
event can awaken different emotional reactions in different
individuals, and our position-takings can in part be mediated by
our belonging to some social or cultural groups. All these
phenomena can be described by referring to the metaphor of
perspective. Assuming that there are different, and irreducible,
perspectives we can take on the experienced world, and on others as
experiencing the same world, the phenomenon of mutual understanding
can consistently be understood in terms of perspectival
flexibility. This edited volume investigates the different
processes in which perspectival flexibility occurs in social life
and particularly focuses on the constitutive role of imagination in
such processes. It includes original works in philosophy and
psychopathology showing how perspectival flexibility and social
cognition are grounded on the interplay of direct perception and
imagination.
