dc.description.abstract	This thesis aims to understand the nature of the visual perception by mainly focusing on the question, “What is the immediate object of visual experience?” To this aim, I will examine the theories of perception and give an account of myself with the help of some other theories. In the first chapter, I will reveal the two main approaches in explaining the nature of perception, namely the direct theory of perception and the indirect theory of perception, and state the objections that are raised against them. In the second chapter, I will briefly mention Searle’s, Dretske’s and Voss’s theories of perception that will help me with my own account of visual perception. In the last chapter, I will put forward my direct realist theory of perception depending on the theories of Searle, Dretske and Voss.
