Abstract

Colour has often been supposed to be a subjective property, a property to be analysed orretly in terms of the phenomenological aspects of human expereince. In contrast with subjectivism, an objectivist analysis of color takes color to be a property objects possess in themselves, independently of the character of human perceptual expereince. David Hilbert defends a form of objectivism that identifies color with a physical property of surfaces - their spectral reflectance. This analysis of color is shown to provide a more adequate account of the features of human color vision than its subjectivist rivals. The author's account of colro also recognises that the human perceptual system provides a limited and idiosyncratic picture of the world. These limitations are shown to be consistent with a realist account of colour and to provide the necessary tools for giving an analysis of common sense knowledge of color phenomena.
色彩与色彩感知——以人类为中心的现实主义研究
颜色通常被认为是一种主观属性,一种需要从人类经验的现象学角度正确分析的属性。与主观主义相比,客观主义的色彩分析认为,色彩是物体本身所具有的一种属性,与人类感知经验的特征无关。大卫·希尔伯特(David Hilbert)为一种客观主义辩护,认为颜色是表面的一种物理特性——它们的光谱反射率。这种对颜色的分析被证明比其主观主义对手更充分地说明了人类色彩视觉的特征。作者对色彩的描述也认识到,人类的感知系统提供了一幅有限的、特殊的世界图景。这些限制被证明与现实主义的色彩描述是一致的,并为分析色彩现象的常识知识提供了必要的工具。
