Edmund Husserl wordt erkend als de grondlegger van de fenomenologie en heeft het filosofische denken van de 20e eeuw diepgaand beïnvloed. Hij brak met de positivistische oriëntatie van zijn tijd en stelde dat alle kennis voortkomt uit ervaring. Zijn werk duikt in de structuren van het bewustzijn en gebruikt fenomenologische methoden om de essentie van verschijnselen te ontdekken. Husserls geschriften nodigen uit tot een diepere contemplatie over de aard van de werkelijkheid en onze waarneming van de wereld.
The book presents a first English translation of Husserl's influential lectures on "passive synthesis," delivered from 1920 to 1926, during a pivotal period of his work. It explores the application of genetic phenomenology to perceptual experience and its relationship to judgment and cognition. Additionally, the lectures reflect on the crisis in contemporary thought, delve into the layers of meaning within experience, and outline the evolution of judgment through "active synthesis."
This first English translation of Husserliana XXIII presents a collection of posthumous texts by Edmund Husserl, focusing on representational consciousness. It includes lectures and sketches that provide an in-depth exploration of image consciousness, phantasy, perception, and memory.
Such a phenomenology would advance the "critique of knowledge," in which the problem of knowledge is clearly formulated and the possibility of knowledge rigorously secured. that is, he attempts to secure the possibility of the knowledge of the possibility of knowledge, not the possibil ity of knowledge in general (see below, pp.
Presents a translation of Husserl's "Thing-lectures" (Dingvorlesung) of 1907. The lectures deal with the constitution of the thing as a res extensa, an extended spatial structure filled with sensuous qualities and not yet with substantial or causal properties. They present an example of the application of this idea to a concrete field of research.
The primary intent of this volume is to give the English reader access to all the philosophical texts published by Husserl between the appearance of his first book, Philosophie der Arithmetik, and that of his second book, Logische Untersuchungen- roughly, from 1890 through 1901.
Edmund Husserl's work is a foundational text in phenomenology, a pivotal movement in twentieth-century philosophy. In "Ideas," originally published in 1913, Husserl expands his earlier, narrower conception of phenomenology to explore the essence of consciousness and thought itself. This shift sparked significant debate about consciousness and experience, influencing major philosophers like Martin Heidegger and Jean-Paul Sartre. The reprint preserves the original's integrity, offering readers insight into the evolution of philosophical thought and its lasting impact.
The Essential Husserl, the first anthology in English of Edmund Husserl's major writings, provides access to the scope of his philosophical studies, including selections from his key works: Logical Investigations, Ideas I and II, Formal and Transcendental Logic, Experience and Judgment, Cartesian Meditations, The Crisis of European Sciences and Transcendental Phenomenology, and On the Phenomenology of the Consciousness of Internal Time. The collection is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in twentieth-century philosophy.

Widely regarded as the principal founder of phenomenology, one of the most important movements in twentieth century philosophy, Edmund Husserl's Ideas is one of his most important works and a classic of twentieth century thought. Husserl's early thought conceived of phenomenology - the general study of what appears to conscious experience - in a relatively narrow way, mainly in relation to problems in logic and the theory of knowledge. The publication of Ideas in 1913 witnessed a significant and controversial widening of Husserl's thought, changing the course of phenomenology decisively. Husserl argued that phenomenology was the study of the very nature of what it is to think, "the science of the essence of consciousness" itself. Husserl's arguments ignited a heated debate regarding the nature of consciousness and experience that has endured throughout the twentieth and continues in the present day. No understanding of twentieth century philosophy is complete without some understanding of Husserl, and his work influenced some of the great philosophers of the twentieth century, such as Martin Heidegger and Jean-Paul Sartre.
The Crisis of European Sciences and Transcendental Phenomenology, Husserl's last great work, is important both for its content and for the influence it has had on other philosophers. In this book, which remained unfinished at his death, Husserl attempts to forge a union between phenomenology and existentialism. Husserl provides not only a history of philosophy but a philosophy of history. As he says in Part I, "The genuine spiritual struggles of European humanity as such take the form of struggles between the philosophies, that is, between the skeptical philosophies--or nonphilosophies, which retain the word but not the task--and the actual and still vital philosophies. But the vitality of the latter consists in the fact that they are struggling for their true and genuine meaning and thus for the meaning of a genuine humanity."
Contents: I) " Philosophy as a Rigorous Science." II) "Philosophy and Crisis of European Man." From book's Introduction by Quentin Lauer: "It is hoped that the two essays chosen for translation in this volume will contribute towards filling a gap which those who are interested in contemporary phenomenology cannot but feel. The first essay can be said to represent Husserl early in his career, when he was seeking to gain a hearing for his 'radically new' scientific manner of philosophizing. The second dates from the years immediately preceding the cessation of Husserl's philosophical activity. Together they constitute a striking testimony to the continuity of Husserl's 'scientific' ideal in philosophy. The intervening years saw considerable development of the detailed method for attaining the goal of universal rationality, but it is significant that the position achieved as a result of this development in no way involved relinquishing any major position adopted at the beginning or along the way. Thus we have in these two essays on only an early in a late stage in the genetic growth of Husserl's thought but also an introduction to what can be called his definitive attitude toward the very nature of philosophical thinking."
