Abstract
The concept of sensation arose out of the empiricist enterprise taking the psychic as a sector of Nature, intelligibly integrated into the totality of Nature by laws, and understood by the exposition of the relationships between its simplest component elements. Husserl surely did not believe that consciousness could be treated as a sector of Nature among others, and rejected not only the analysis of the psychic into the atomic sensations of classical empiricism, but also of the analysis of the psychic into the molecular or molar sensations of Gestaltism.1
