Abstract

In the article logic preconditions of the concept of description at Brentano and Husserl are considered, in particular, a connection between the doctrine of the definition and the practice of the description of consciousness. Originality of Brentanos doctrine is that he has departed from the Aristotelian principle of dichotomizing differentiation of generic concepts. On the contrary, Husserl comes back to an Aristotelian principle of differentiation of generic definitions and confirms an intentionality as a generic property of acts of the consciousness. The author shows how divergences in the logic theory of concept have caused many essential distinctions at Brentano and Husserl in practice of description and in interpretation of the structures of acts of the consciousness.

Key words

Phenomenology, Brentano, Husserl, description, theory of definition, intentionality.

Abstract

This article deals with the notion of time in the Martin Heidegger’s fundamental оntology. The conceptual deference between the ordinary understanding of time and its ontological comprehension as temporality is made here. Namely the time of the ordinary understanding is guided by the moment of “now”, but the temporality as the meaning of human being (of Dasein) has to be treated on the base of its ecstatical character. It is shown in which way the temporality as the ontological meaning of human being can be the condition of possibility of any understanding of being in general.

Key words

Fundamental Ontology, Martin Heidegger, being, time, Dasein, temporality, ecstasis.

Abstract

The hermeneutical conception of personal identity and self-understanding is based on narrativity. The latter is hermeneutical in so far as it involves hermeneutic circle wich is inscribed in different ways into our self-understending. However, the narrative self is founded in the phenomenology of embodiment. There is a reciprocal connection between our narrative and embodied selves.

Key words

Narrative, self, self-understanding, self-consciousness, hermeneutic circle, embodiment.

Abstract

This paper examines the contensive and methodological functions of the “primary (living) present” in the Husserl’s late phenomenology. In the first part of the paper transcendental being as a “concrete primarily living present” and transcendental life as a “Heraclitean streaming present” are thematized. In the second part I examine the role of an investigation into the living present in the context of a change of attitude. In the conclusion special attention is given to the primal fact of the “living present” and to the situation of “auto-discovery” in reflection.

Key words

Living present, transcendental being, transcendental life, time-consciousness, phenomenological method, reflection.

Abstract

This translation fully reproduces the most compact part of volume XXXIII of collection of Husserl’s works (Part IV). It consists of only two texts: № 14: “My flow of feelings and I” and №15: “Temporal relations of pure I”. Title of part IV “Egological and hyletic temporality in a genetic perspective” seems to be adequate to the content of texts: problem of participation of I in the flow of consciousness and problem of passive hyletic layer of time constitution.

Key words

Flow of feelings, non-egological sensuality, proto-state, hyle.

Abstract

This textological workshop focused on translation of the § 2 of the text № 14 from Bernau Manuscripts. In the framework of the workshop the discussion of the first paragraph of the text no. 14 was given, to be exact — the problem of reduction to the non-egoglogical sensuality (ichlosen Sensualität), status of discretion that leads to non-egological side of I and this I itself.

Key words

Transcendental Ego, non-egological sensuality, phenomenological abstraction, reflective intuition.

Abstract

The author of this monograph considers substantial sides of philosophical work of Heidegger in its own phenomenological context. Moreover, in contrast to many other interpreters of heideggerian philosophy, Getmann examines Heidegger’s ontological undertaking in the unity of its systematic intention. This fragment is about Heidegger’s reformulation of phenomenological program of Husserl, particularly of the idea of pure consciousness, being of intentional that resulted in neglect of the question about the meaning of being itself and became the key to understanding the philosophical theme of Heidegger.

Key words

Principles of phenomenology, meaning of being, fundamental ontology, ontological funding of sciences.

Abstract

This article deals with little-studied issue of passive constitution, research of which clears the way to understanding of peculiar Husserl’s transcendental philosophy. The author of the article points out that concept of formation varies between formation of sense and creation, but this fluctuation takes place only in relation to passive synthesis. Landgrebe rests upon a number of statements, considered in the article (“deep-laid dimension” of constitution process cannot be grasped by phenomenological introspection; functions of corporeality belong to functions of passive pre-constitution and with them to transcendental subjectivity; proceeding proto-occurrence of transcendental subjectivity has to be understood as creative process) in which this variation proves to be justified.

Key words

Passive constitution, formation of sense, creation, corporeality, phenomenological introspection, foundation.

Abstract

The main idea of the conference was the need of revision of modern state of the French phenomenology, which accomplished considerable revision of theses of phenomenology, based on classical Husserl’s and Heidegger’s texts, and oriented its researches to analysis of what is not presented phenomenally (such as rupture, trauma, event, face, gift, sacrifice). The conference was divided in 9 thematic blocks that, in addition to discussion the prospects of the French phenomenology and the problems of translation, substantially outlined such topics as prospects of subject of Maldine, scope of the external and manifestation of the Other of Levinas, otherness and phenomenon, phenomenology and pathological, otherness in M. Henri’s thought.

Key words

Abstract

Systematic research of “first-person” perspective in a monograph continues the old debate about the scientific status of introspection, its peculiarities, and in the interpretation of Zahavi — its advantages in comparison with the “third-person” perspective. The author questions about grounds of formation of self-consciousness, taking into account the experience of philosophy and other human sciences. The aim of this paper is to describe and clarify the whole system of differences and genetics of internal motivation in the form in which subjectivity is a dynamic (temporal) model of consciousness.

Key words

Formation of self-consciousness, internal structure of subjectivity, phenomenological method, internal consciousness of time.
