Zahavi Dan (University Of Copenhagen) - Husserl's Legacy Phenomenology Metaphysics And Transcendental Philosophy - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: Dan Zahavi offers an in - depth and up - to - date analysis of central and contested aspects of the philosophy of Edmund Husserl the founder of phenomenology. What is ultimately at stake in Husserl's phenomenological analyses? Are they primarily to be understood as investigations of consciousness or are they equally about the world? What is distinctive about phenomenological transcendental philosophy and what kind of metaphysical import if any might it have? Husserl's Legacy offers an interpretation of the more overarching aims and ambitions of Husserlian phenomenology and engages with some of the most contested and debated questions in phenomenology. Central to its interpretative efforts is the attempt to understand Husserl's transcendental idealism. Zahavi argues that Husserl was not a sophisticated introspectionist not a phenomenalist nor an internalist not a quietist when it comes to metaphysical issues and not opposed to all forms of naturalism. Husserl's Legacy argues that Husserl's phenomenology is as much about the world as it is about consciousness and that a proper grasp of Husserl's transcendental idealism reveals the fundamental importance of facticity and intersubjectivity.
