Edmund Husserl: Philosopher of Infinite Tasks

by Maurice Natanson

On This Page

Description

Winner of the 1974 National Book Award The product of many years of reflection on phenomenology, this book is a comprehensive and creative introduction to the philosophy of Edmund Husserl. Natanson uses Husserl's later work as a clue to the meaning of his entire intellectual career, showing how his earlier methodological work evolved into the search for transcendental roots and developed into a philosophy of the life-world. Phenomenology, for Natanson, emerges as a philosophy of origin, a show more transcendental discipline concerned with consciousness, history, and world rather than with introspection and traditional metaphysical warfare. show less
