Husserl on the Human Sciences in Ideen II

subject

description

Interpreted according to the intentions of the author in Ideen I, Ideen II (with Ideen III) analyzes the relation between phenomenology and the natural and the spiritual sciences. Dilthey and early twentieth century discussions of the Geisteswissenschaften, the historical sciences in particular, are not examined by Husserl, but reflections on the personalistic attitude explicates Dilthey’s intentions. The person, motivation, communities, cultural objects, psychology, and relations with nature and with transcendental phenomenology are considered, as are pertinent abstractive reductions. References to continuations of the analyses here in later works of Husserl are also included.
