The goal of the present paper is to develop McDowell's heterodox interpretation of the LBD by 1) making its foundations stronger and 2) more fully working out the implications of McDowell's provocative argument that, for Hegel, empirical consciousness becomes apperceptive consciousness.
Both associative and apperceptive variants are reported; although both types result in poor facial recognition, in associative prosopagnosia, patients are still able to discriminate between faces, but they lack the ability to identify them.
For McDowell, the struggle describes <<a failure and then a temporary success at integrating, within a single individual, a consciousness aiming to affirm itself as spontaneously apperceptive, and a consciousness that is conceived as immersed in life in the world>> (McDowell 2006: 45).

These deficits were explained by apperceptive visual agnosia, spatial agnosia and moderate constructional apraxia and were not justified by the degree of visual impairment (see Table 3).
Their impairment at constructing a perceptual representation from vision and the consequent inability to copy or identify a drawing are consistent with apperceptive agnosia [3,25].
The result is a startlingly apperceptive experience, in which listeners become more conscious of their activity of listening than the piece itself.
Hegel agrees with Kant that consciousness is apperceptive, that in responding to the world, I am always already aware that it is I who am doing so--all consciousness is at least implicitly self-consciousness; but the self of which we are more or less aware as each of us make judgments is not an immanent object within the world, but rather the very condition for the possibility of the objects in the world appearing in their rule-governed unity.
Absolute dread is the unknown that cannot be warded off in advance-the sudden, unexpected, horrific, cinematic shot that no filmic logic or apperceptive conditioning prepares us for.
Yet even here Husserl continues to speak of "strata", and even of a phenomenological "archaeology" unearthing the "hidden constitutive structures" of the apperceptive sense-performances whose correlate is the seemingly "ready-made" world--a search for ultimate origins that, as with archaeology in the usual sense, proceeds by way of "reconstruction" (19).
The inclusion of a broad range of topics nevertheless reveals the (sometimes unavoidable) biases of medieval scholarship: twelve of the sixteen essays deal with liturgical or religious practices, and six focus on literary (narrative or dramatic) texts, while all necessarily rely heavily on written records of verbal, ceremonial, dramatic, ritualistic or other performative acts, whose apperceptive gap is barely acknowledged by some authors, but bridged by others through an intuitive and thoughtful application of performance theory.
A clinician can identify disorders of perception and integration in the neurological examination by requesting an individual to identify simple objects such as a key by sight using the visual system (apperceptive, associative) or by touch using the somatosensory system (astereoagnosia).
