The three-course development of Empathy

"Appresentation as such presupposes a core of presentation. it is a presentification combined by association with presentation, with perception proper, but a presentification that is fused with the latter in the particular function of 'co-perception'. In other words, the two are so fused that they stand within the functional community of one perception, which simultaneously presents and appresents, and yet furnishes for the total a consciousness of its being itself there."

Edmund Husserl, Cartesian Meditations, trans. Dorion Cairns (The Hague: Martinus Nijhoff, 1973), p. 150.
