Phenomenology of Practice

2007-10-28

Max van Manen

Pathic knowing inheres in the sense and sensuality of our practical actions, in encounters with others and in the ways that our bodies are responsive to the things of our world and to the situations and relations in which we find ourselves. Phenomenology of practice is an ethical corrective of the technological and calculative modalities of contemporary life. It finds its source and impetus in practical phenomenologies of reading and writing that open up possibilities for creating formative relations between being and acting, self and other, interiorities and exteriorities, between who we are and how we act.

Ideas: General Introduction to Pure Phenomenology.

Andrew D. Osborn , Edmund Husserl

This Routledge Classics edition of original translation by W.R. Boyce Gibson includes introduction to English edition written by Husserl himself in 1931. Husserl’s early thought conceived of phenomenology – general study of what appears to conscious experience – in a relatively narrow way, mainly in relation to problems in logic and theory of knowledge. The publication of Ideas in 1913 witnessed a significant and controversial widening of Husserl’s thought, changing course of phenomenology decisively. Husserl argued that phenomenology was study of very nature of what it is to think, the science of essence of itself. Husserl’s arguments ignited a heated debate regarding nature of consciousness and experience that has endured throughout twentieth and continues in present day. No understanding of twentieth century philosophy is complete without some understanding of Husserl, and his work influenced some of great philosophers of twentieth century, such as Martin Heidegger and Jean-Paul Sartre.

Dermot Moran lucidly examines the contributions of phenomenology's nine seminal thinkers: Brentano, Husserl, Heidegger, Gadamer, Arendt, Levinas, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty and Derrida.Written in a clear and engaging style, Introduction to Phenomenology charts the course of the phenomenological movement from its origins in Husserl to its transformation by Derrida. It describes the thought of Heidegger and Sartre, phenomonology's most famous thinkers, and introduces and assesses the distinctive use of phenomonology by some of its lesser known exponents, such as Levinas, Arendt and Gadamer. Throughout the book, the enormous influence of phenomenology on the course of twentieth-century philosophy is thoroughly explored.This is an indispensible introduction for all unfamiliar with this much talked about but little understood school of thought. Technical terms are explained throughout and jargon is avoided. Introduction to Phenomenology will be of interest to all students seeking a reliable introduction to a key movement in European thought.

Through painstaking investigation of European archives and private correspondence, Theodore Kisiel provides an unbroken account of the philosopher's early development and progress toward his masterwork. Beginning with Heidegger's 1915 dissertation, Kisiel explores the philosopher's religious conversion during the bleak war years, the hermeneutic breakthrough in the war-emergency semester of 1919, the evolution of attitudes toward his phenomenological mentor, Edmund Husserl, and the shifting orientations of the three drafts of Being and Time . Discussing Heidegger's little-known reading of Aristotle, as well as his last-minute turn to Kant and to existentialist terminology, Kisiel offers a wealth of narrative detail and documentary evidence that will be an invaluable factual resource for years to come. A major event for philosophers and Heidegger specialists, the publication of Kisiel's book allows us to jettison the stale view of Being and Time as a great book "frozen in time" and instead to appreciate the erratic starts, finite high points, and tentative conclusions of what remains a challenging philosophical "path."

One would have to employ (1) description (2) within the attitude of the phenomenological reduction, and (3) seek the most invariant meanings for a context. The results of this analysis are used to critique an article by Klein and Westcott (1994), that presents a typology of the development of the phenomenological psychological method.

He redefined the central task of philosophy as the investigation of the nature of being, and has exerted a profound impact on literary theory, theology, psychotherapy, political theory, aesthetics, environmental studies, as well as mainstream philosophy. His thought has contributed to the recent turn to hermeneutics in philosophy and the social sciences, and to current post-modern and post-structuralist developments. The disclosing of his deep involvement in the ideology of Nazism has provoked much debate about the relation of philosophy to politics. This volume contains both overviews of Heidegger's life and works and analysis of his most important work, Being and Time. In addition there are discussions of Heidegger's thought in relation to mysticism, traditional theology, ecology, psychotherapy and the philosophy of language. The volume also contains the first in-depth study of what has been called Heidegger's second greatest work, the Beitrage zur Philosophie.

A welcome alternative to the linguistic turn that has dominated recent analytic and Continental philosophy, Tool-Being urges a fresh and concrete exploration into the secret contours of objects. Written in a lively and colorful style, it will be of interest to anyone open to new trends in contemporary philosophy.

This book argues that improved body consciousness can relieve these problems and enhance one's knowledge, performance, and pleasure. The body is our basic medium of perception and action, but focused attention to its feelings and movements has long been criticised as a damaging distraction that also ethically corrupts through self-absorption. In Body Consciousness, Richard Shusterman refutes such charges by engaging the most influential twentieth-century somatic philosophers and incorporating insights from both Western and Asian disciplines of body-mind awareness. Rather than rehashing intractable ontological debates on the mind-body relation, Shusterman reorients study of this crucial nexus towards a more fruitful, pragmatic direction that reinforces important but neglected connections between philosophy of mind, ethics, politics, and the pervasive aesthetic dimensions of everyday life.

Impressive in both scope and imagination, it uses the example of perception to return the body to the forefront of philosophy for the first time since Plato. Drawing on case studies such as brain-damaged patients from the First World War, Merleau-Ponty brilliantly shows how the body plays a crucial role not only in perception but in speech, sexuality and our relation to others.

Captured by the Germans, he was released, after nearly a year, in 1941. He immediately joined the French resistance as a journalist. In the postwar era Jean-Paul Sartre - philosopher, critic, novelist, and dramatist - became one of the most influential men of this century. He died in Paris in 1980.

Dan Zahavi

Supposedly, he never abandoned the view that the world and the Other are constituted by a pure transcendental subject, and his thinking in consequence remains Cartesian, idealistic, and solipsistic. The continuing publication of Husserl's manuscripts has made it necessary to revise such an interpretation. Drawing upon both Husserl's published works and posthumous material, Husserl's Phenomenology incorporates the results of the most recent Husserl research. It is divided into three parts, roughly following the chronological development of Husserl's thought, from his early analyses of logic and intentionality, through his mature transcendental-philosophical analyses of reduction and constitution, to his late analyses of intersubjectivity and lifeworld. It can consequently serve as a concise and updated introduction to his thinking.

Heidegger's concepts of organism, animal behaviour, and environment are uniquely developed and defined with intensity. This work, the text of Martin Heidegger's lecture course of 1929/30, is crucial for an understanding of Heidegger's transition from the major work of his early years, Being and Time, to his later preoccupations with language, truth, and history.

An introduction to phenomenology in qualitative education research: A critical reading of ‘Understanding things from within’

This … Abstract This paper examines the relationship between philosophical phenomenology and its application in qualitative educational research, with a specific focus on Edwin Creely’s 2018 article, “Understanding Things from Within”. This analysis accomplishes two goals. First, I engage directly with Creely’s text to present a more careful interpretation of Husserl’s phenomenology and its potential role in qualitative research. In doing so, I identify key errors in Creely’s reading of Husserl, mistakes in his methodological application, and shortcomings of his empirical findings. Second, I situate Creely’s misapplication within a broader discussion of why misinterpretations of Husserl’s phenomenology persist in qualitative education research. By using Creely as a case study, I identify underlying reasons for common errors in the application of Husserl’s methods and core concepts. I conclude by pointing to a more viable approach that avoids the methodological and conceptual pitfalls frequently found in Creely’s work and similar studies.

A apropriação genuína da história passada e as estruturas constitutivas da vida fática segundo o Relatório-Natorp (1922), de Martin Heidegger

Indicação da situação hermenêutica”), elaborado por Martin Heidegger, em 1922, com o objetivo de concorrer a uma vaga de professor de filosofia nas Universidades de Marburg e Göttingen. Do ponto de vista de seu caminho de pensamento, esta primeira parte retoma sua compreensão da fenomenologia da vida fática já declinada nas preleções friburguenses entre 1919 e 1922. Em sua “Introdução” à subsequente publicação do manuscrito do Relatório-Natorp (em 1989, no Dilthey Jahrbuch), após sua descoberta, Hans-Georg Gadamer o intitulou “O escrito ‘teológico’ juvenil de Heidegger”. Por quê? Porque a teologia cristã se move no interior de conceitos que se originaram na ontologia aristotélica. Heidegger procurou no Aristóteles não escolástico o que o fenômeno religioso do Cristianismo das origens era incapaz de fornecer: a clarificação e a determinação de um caminho genuíno de fazer filosofia. Neste escrito, há um prólogo sobre sua proposta radical: a filosofia é uma hermenêutica fenomenológica da facticidade. Nele, Heidegger esboçou suas interpretações filosóficas atuais e projetadas de Aristóteles. Elas estão a serviço da história da ontologia e da lógica sob fio condutor da situação hermenêutica. Neste sentido, Heidegger procurava conquistar uma direção genuína do olhar em seu interrogar originário. Considerando a densidade do Relatório-Natorp, que se insere no primeiro período friburguense da docência de Heidegger (1919-1923), eu me limitarei a destacar, primeiramente, os pressupostos de toda a interpretação no âmbito de uma ontologia da facticidade: (1); em segundo lugar, abordarei ora a gênese da chamada “situação hermenêutica” como expressão do si mesmo (Selbst), ora a recuperação da história passada com base no “histórico” (das Historische) imanente na pesquisa-questionante; por fim, analisarei as estruturas constitutivas da vida fática: o cuidar, a tendência para o ruir, o como do ter a morte (2).

This paper explores this problem in the context of his work in the 1920s. I first discuss the methodological significance of Heidegger’s references to darkness, sleep, and dreams and his comments on Aristotle’s treatise on sleep. I then broach the phenomena of darkness and dreams themselves, specifically the experience of the uncanny, time, and possibility that they elicit. Afterwards I examine Heidegger’s brief characterization of the dream world in commenting on Heraclitus fragment 89 and draw out its phenomenological implications. I conclude by discussing the metaphysical perspective opened up by the world of sleep.

The Model of Consciousness: An Analysis of Causation, Self, Gödel’s Incompleteness, and Buddhist Philosophy

2025-06-01

Mahendra Samarawickrama | Journal of Physics Conference Series

Abstract This paper examines the limitations of analytical and computational methods in understanding reality, highlighting the secondary role of language and mathematics, which often leads to paradoxes. Gödel’s incompleteness theorems … Abstract This paper examines the limitations of analytical and computational methods in understanding reality, highlighting the secondary role of language and mathematics, which often leads to paradoxes. Gödel’s incompleteness theorems underscore the inherent incompleteness and undecidability in logical and computational systems, such as the Turing machine. We propose that consciousness, operating as a non-material and chaotic finite-state machine (FSM) devoid of self-referencing, can achieve a complete and decidable understanding of reality. This contrasts with the self-referencing nature of logical systems that leads to paradoxes and limitations. Through a conceptual model of the mind inspired by Theravāda Buddhist philosophy, we suggest that awareness of causation is free from self-referencing and coherent with the unpredictable yet causal and deterministic nature of reality. This alignment offers a pathway to a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of causation. The model illustrates the tight integrity between consciousness and causation, proposing that awareness of the present moment of causation can transcend the limitations of Gödel’s incompleteness theorems. This awareness, free from analytical and computational constraints, preserves the integrity of conscious experience and provides a complete and decidable understanding of reality. Future research will focus on developing techniques to sustain this awareness, potentially leading to wisdom and deep insight into the fundamental nature of existence.

The Self as Perspectival Consciousness: Advaita Vedānta and the Elusive Sense of Seslf

It is elusive, I argue, because although I experience myself as a being in the world, this is not what I am. But how can it be that I exist even though there is nothing that I am? This is the paradox of self-identity and, in this paper, I explore how the paradox is solved by Advaita Vedānta. The Advaitic view is that the true self, the ātman, is not a subject of consciousness, but consciousness itself. This is what I truly am, and it is what we all are in the depths of our being. But consciousness is not a worldly phenomenon; it does not exist or occur within us; and this is why the self is not objectifiable.

Şeylerin bilince verilmesi ise ancak bilincin kendi zamansal akışı içinde mümkündür. Zamansal akışın kesintiye uğradığı uyku, doğum ve ölüm gibi hadiseler ise fenomenolojinin betimleyebileceklerinin sınırında yer alır. Bu makalede fenomenolojinin kurucusu olarak kabul edilen Husserl'in ölüm fenomenine yaklaşımı ve onu fenomenolojisinde konumlandırışı ele alınacaktır. Çalışmada cevabı aranan temel soru, bilinç akışını kesintiye uğratan ve birinci şahıs perspektifinden kaçan ölümün, doğrudan verilenlerle yöntemini sınırlayan Husserl tarafından nasıl fenomenleştirildiği olacaktır. Bunun için ilk olarak birinci bölümde, ölümün sınır fenomen olma gerekçesi Husserl düşüncesi bağlamında izah edilecek ikinci bölümde ise Husserl'in ölümü sınır fenomen olmaktan kurtarma çabaları değerlendirilecektir. Çalışma sonucunda Husserl'in ölüme yönelik her iki yaklaşımının da bazı sınırlılıklarla karşılaştığı ortaya koyularak fenomenolojik yöntemin betimleyebileceklerinin sınırlarına işaret edilecektir.

Heidegger on Anxiety and Normative Practice

According to a prominent recent interpretation, Heidegger’s discussions of anxiety, death and the “call of conscience” together explain how we can respond to the norms of our practices as reasons and subject them to critical reflection. I argue that this is only part of the story. Anxiety is an occasion for Dasein to take responsibility for its ongoing activity of interpreting the possibilities for living and acting made available by the normative practices of its community, which is presupposed and overlooked from the perspective of everyday Dasein. Public normativity underdetermines Dasein’s conception of what it would mean to take up any of the possibilities available in its world as a way of living its own life.

Figuras de la alegría en Husserl: sobre la condición del sentimiento como acto y como estado

El fundador de la fenomenología comprende esta vivencia afectiva como un proceso o dinamismo que se va desenvolviendo a partir de diferentes figuras. El análisis de esta cadena de figuras, que combina un acto original y sucesivos estados afectivos a los que denominamos “estelas”, identifica a estas últimas —frente a lo que tradicionalmente se ha considerado— como vivencias intencionales. El hecho de que también en la esfera del entendimiento Husserl reconozca unos peculiares “estados intencionales” obliga a reconsiderar la intencionalidad como el criterio último para distinguir actos y estados, hallando en sus manuscritos un criterio alternativo: el carácter activo o pasivo de la vivencia.

Then decoherence, that is, the quantum-to-classical transition, is discussed in detail. This is important for understanding the classical appearance of our world and the evolution of primordial quantum fluctuations into galaxies and clusters of galaxies. The chapter also presents an introduction to the arrow of time and its possible explanation from quantum gravity. It ends with general reflections and an outlook.

The phenomenology of embodied heuristics in contemporary art: exploring novel modes of cognition and thought

The authors use a phenomenological research method, complemented by elements of the naturalistic method. These methods complement each other and create the conditions for a new understanding of the body, the corporeal and its functional capacities. Contemporary art uses this methodological synthesis and creates context to form new cultural meanings. It shows that the artist’s aim is to search for new semantic contexts that fit organically into the theory of the embodied mind. Architectural and sculptural art indirectly activated questions of knowledge, creating a sense of “height” through one’s own body as a path to the transcendent and access to the mystery of the “invisible”. The modern cognitive paradigm is in crisis: the development of cognition based on rational tools is unable to grasp the objectivity of the world in its totality. The artist activates an inner attunement to specific trajectories of thought, thus destroying the limits of knowledge and expanding its boundaries. The philosophical analysis of the activation of the senses, taking into account bodily capacities and embodied rationality, points to a possible path for the development of knowledge in the future.

O sumo bem e o campo suprassensível nos limites da finitude humana

Assim, conforme diagnostica Hamm (2011), fomentou-se ora reprovação ora negligência acerca do papel do sumo bem na moral kantiana. Enfatizando argumentos da Dialética, intencionamos apresentar a coerência desse conceito (em resposta a Beck, 1960) e situá-lo fora da dimensão da motivação (em resposta a Guyer, 2000). Em suma, defenderemos que o sumo bem é um problema colocado por nossa finitude humana, cuja resposta exige a ocupação de campo do suprassensível que escapa à determinação tanto da razão especulativa quanto da lei moral. Sendo assim, podemos investigar em que medida o primado e os postulados da razão prática, articulando a ordem do ser segundo a demanda da ordem do dever, justificam ou não tal ocupação.

Living with the Everyday Kitsch Object: A New Existential Potentiality

In this paper, I offer my contribution to this discussion, arguing that some everyday kitsch objects have the potential to redeem themselves and, with time, acquire a specific existential value for the person who engages with them. This conclusion will be supported by considering some well-established characteristics of kitsch—like its parasitic nature and effortless identifiability—by criticizing others—its alleged lack of incongruities and critical layers—and by drawing the consequences of some others that are traditionally disregarded, in particular, the fundamental feature of displacement that is present in kitsch in general and the trait of unpretentiousness and lack of beautification that is typical of many forms of everyday kitsch.

Vzpomínka bez paměti. Smrt jako mezní fenomén života v Husserlově fenomenologii

This creates the problem of the meaning of the experience of consciousness before birth and after death. The infinity of the immanent current is itself the constituted yield of the life of the ego. In this sense, it is an independent stage of constitution, whose source is the living, flowing presence. Taking this difference into account gives rise to the problem: how is it possible to make sense of an experience in which the ego was not (unconscious or pre-conscious states, dreamless sleep, death) accessible. We show that these connections cannot be satisfactorily accessible without accounting for the alertness (and maturity) of the ego that is conducting the phenomenological investigation.

A pneumatologia mariana em Edith Stein: O Espírito, o feminino e a maternidade espiritual

Anderson Moura Amorim | Revista Pistis Praxis

Para Edith Stein, … Este artigo analisa a relação entre o Espírito Santo e Maria no pensamento de Edith Stein (1891-1942), evidenciando Maria como Theotókos, protótipo da humanidade em sua inteireza. Para Edith Stein, a interação entre o Espírito e o feminino coloca Maria em uma dimensão espiritual, desde sua “recepção do Espírito” (Lc 1,35) até sua “presença orante no Cenáculo” (At 1,14), vinculando-a ao Espírito que “ressuscita os corpos” (1Cor 15,42-45), alinhado-a à “mulher que serve o Senhor na maternidade espiritual” (LG 53-54; 56; 60-62). O estudo, baseado em pesquisa bibliográfica, investiga como essa relação revela a maternidade de Maria como um “ícone da feminilidade e fecundidade do Espírito Santo”, explorando fundamentos bíblicos, patrísticos e as abordagens fenomenológicas de Edith Stein. A ação do Espírito Santo em Maria revela sua força interior e a contribuição da mulher para a vida comunitária e para a história da salvação, enriquecendo a reflexão teológica sobre o feminino e o papel da mulher no plano divino.

У дослідженні встановлено, що значення поняття нормативного передусім розкривається через дистинкції норм і фактів, нормативності й дескриптивності, нормативізму й натуралізму. Звертаючи увагу на різнобічність наявних концептуалізацій понять нормативного і конвенційного у сучасній філософії наголошується на особливій значущості названої проблематики для філософії прагматичного спрямування, оскільки феномен дії як у буквальному значенні (поведінкова дія), так і у небуквальному (мовна дія) передбачає актуалізацію чинника спільноти і, отже, соціального вектору філософських міркувань, у річищі якого питання конвенційності і нормативності мають непересічну вагомість. Адресуючись до концепції «нормативної прагматики» Р. Брендома, у статті акцентовані такі її риси, як перекривання прагматизму і прагматики та, відповідно, підпорядкування семантичного виміру царинам не лише прагматики, а й прагматизму. Аналітичним бекґраундом праці виступає трансцендентальний дискурс, з позиції якого здійснюється авторська рефлексія.

“The Problem of Speech in Merleau-Ponty: My View of ‘Speaking Speech’ and ‘Spoken Speech’ in Light of Ontogenesis”

2025-04-26

Rajiv Kaushik

The turn away from phenomenology in 20th century French philosophy was in large part due to an increased emphasis on Ferdinand de Saussure’s notion of “linguistic structure”, i.e., that language … The turn away from phenomenology in 20th century French philosophy was in large part due to an increased emphasis on Ferdinand de Saussure’s notion of “linguistic structure”, i.e., that language is the internal system of differences between signs. Thinkers such as Paul Ricoeur and Jean-François Lyotard famously offered a “semiological challenge” to phenomenology. The idea was that phenomenology, especially Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology, reduces to the sensible world and cannot think linguistic structure. Thus, the argument goes that phenomenology leaves out a basic element of human life: not only can it not think linguistic structure, but it also cannot think about elements, e.g., writing and text, which are its result. This paper takes up this challenge, especially in reference to Merleau-Ponty’s terminology in Phenomenology of Perception of “speaking speech” (parole parlante) and “spoken speech” (parole parlée). I point out that, in retrospect of his later work, Merleau-Ponty very clearly did want to take linguistic structure seriously. This, however, means that we need to reconsider some of the basic themes in his work. Taking inspiration from the recently published “problem of speech” lectures, I reconstruct Merleau-Ponty’s idea that speech is a concrete limit situation from which we get both the idea of a language structure in which there are differences and of an ontological difference between being and beings. This is an internal criticism of both linguistic structure and formal ontology. I begin the paper by noting that, in Merleau-Ponty’s descriptions of the tacit and spoken cogito, also in Phenomenology of Perception, Merleau-Ponty criticizes the notion of a subject to which language refers and highlights the notion of a subject that defies representational and denotational structure. I do not, however, go along with Merleau-Ponty’s own criticism of the tacit ego, which he ultimately declared too subjectivistic. Ultimately, I hope to stress the importance of linguistic structure and writing in Merleau-Ponty’s ontology. This is an ontology of that is fragile and requires symbolization. This paper emphasizes under-developed themes in Merleau-Ponty’s work such as bodily event, difference, symbolization, and the writing of philosophy.
