Abstract
The article is devoted to analysis of philosophical and methodological aspects of contemporary representationalism. The theory of Susanna Siegel was chosen as the investigation subject. She presented an argument of the phenomenological contrast in a couple of papers which can answer the question about what properties are represented in perceptual experiences. The paper deals with criticism of the argument by Portuguese theorist R. Jagnow who offers an alternative explanation for the phenomena under discussion.
