Exploring the historical and cultural dimensions of the senses, this Element delves into how perception has evolved across different eras and societies. It challenges conventional views on sensory interaction and highlights the unique qualities of each sense, particularly the emotional resonance of smell. Readers will encounter intriguing figures such as 17th-century philosopher Margaret Cavendish and 19th-century artist James McNeill Whistler, whose work exemplifies the interplay between art and sensory experience. The findings presented offer surprising insights that redefine our understanding of perception.
