• Seeing and Conceptualizing: Modularity and the Shallow Contents of Perception (2018, background): “Recently there has been renewed support for the idea that there is a joint in nature separating perception from cognition (Carey 2009; Burge 2010; Block 2014; Firestone and Scholl 2014, 2015, forthcoming; Raftapolous 2015).”
• Valence and Value (2018, positive): “Moreover, there also remains the possibility of non-reductive naturalism about content, where content is treated as a conceptual primitive (just as it is in much of cognitive science), and where the reality of intentional properties is licensed by the central role they occupy —and are likely to cont”
• Perceptual content and the content of mental imagery (2015, background): “…various properties to various parts of the perceived scene, where I take the perceived scene to be spatially (and not propositionally) organized, in the way Peacocke’s scenario content is (Peacocke 1992—see also Crane 2009; Burge 2010 for other accounts of non-propositional perceptual content).”

• ATTENTION AND MENTAL PAINT (2010, background): “( Burge ( 2010 ) argues persuasively that the content of perception should be understood demonstratively rather than propositionally .”
• Natural Agency: The Case of Bacterial Cognition (2017, background): “Moreover, the behavior of unicellular eukaryotes has motivated a ‘pre-intentional, even pre-representational and preperceptual’ conception of primitive agency in terms of biological function (Burge 2010: 327).”
