摘要
Ordinary cases of object seeing involve the visual perception of space and spatial location. But does seeing an object require such spatial perception? An empirical challenge to the idea that it does comes from reflection upon Balint's syndrome, for some suppose that in Balint's syndrome subjects can see objects without seeing space or spatial location. In this article, I question whether the empirical evidence available to us adequately supports this understanding of Balint's syndrome, and explain how the aforementioned empirical challenge can be resisted.
