What about this one Larry?

        ‘Experience’ is what James called a double-barreled word. Like
        its congeners, life and history, it includes /what/ men do and
        suffer, /what/ they strive for, love, believe and endure, and
        /how/ men act and are acted upon, the ways in which they do and
        suffer, desire and enjoy, see, believe, imagine – in short,
        processes of /experiencing/. ... It is ‘double-barreled’ in that
        it recognizes in its primary integrity no division between act
        and material, subject and object, but contains them both in an
        unanalyzed totality. ‘Thing’ and ‘thought’, as James says in the
        same connection, are single-barreled; they refer to products
        discriminated by reflection out of primary experience (1929 PJD:
        256-7).

Mike,

On page 12 of the article on Dewey's notionotion of experience the theme of experience AS "life overcomes and transforms factors of opposition to achieve higher significance. Harmony and equilibrium are the resullts not of mechanical processes but of RHYTHMIC resolution of tension. The rhythmic ALTERNATION within the live creature BETWEEN unity and disunity becomes CONSCIOUS in humans. Emotion signifies BREAKS in experience which are then resolved through reflective action"

I thought this may be a way in to *start* the conversational dialogue with perezhivanie.

Michael, Mike:
One more fragment on the  definition of sentipensante:

Sentipensante pedagogy offers a transformative vision of education that emphasizes the harmonic, complementary relationship between the sentir of intuition and the pensar of intellect and scholarship; between teaching and learning; between formal knowledge and wisdom; and between Western and non-Western ways of knowing.

Seems to have some family resemblance to this theme of experience Larry

Mike,
Thanks for this.
Stanford Pub is a wonderful resource. I seem to download an author approximately once a month. For $10 you support them and get the articles sent in a PDF format.

Michael , here is a link [in Spanish] to a youtube video of Orlando Fals-Borda discussing his understanding of experience from the heart. If you have any articles in English which you can share, this seems to be exploring experience within "felt awareness".
Seems to be a fascinating expansion of the understanding of experience.

Thanks, Michael and Mike

Thanks Larry. Viva la differencia. Here is a quick summary of Dewey on experience. Note that his ideas are considered unusual by the
author.
That
Stanford pub seems very useful.

Michael,
I also found this site for Orlando Fals Borda.
http://comm-org.wisc.edu/si/falsborda.htm
If it is off topic please ignore. However, it is where my curiosity was called or invited.

Perhaps another avenue to explore might be Ortega y Gasset's ideas on experience (which is probably in some ways reflective of Dewey)
which was
appropriated by Orlando Fals Borda in the concept of vivencia -
which is
very compelling - and became an important part of Fals-Borda's
conception
of Participatory Action Research. This might then tie back to the
earlier
issue on PAR.

Thanks Beth--

I ask, firstly, because there appear quite clear overlaps as you and
Monica
have been exploring.

Secondly, we have two submissions to MCA on perezhivanie that are
very
focused on Russian authors. Over and above competing exegeses of the ideas of Vygotsky, Puyzerei, etc., it seems important
that
we figure out ways to explore different ways of thinking about the
general
category of "experience" that will be productive of new empirical and theoretical investigation.

Monica and I have just started using the two concepts in
conjunction,
as
we write about the relation between play and learning and Dewey's
ideas
on
the relation between art and science in Art and Experience. I am
very
interested in any ref. you find as I have found none yet. Can I
ask why
you
ask now? Beth

Has anyone written on uses of the term perezhivanie as used in the cultural historical tradition and Dewey's concept of experience?
references?
