Edgar Allan Poe: A Phenomenological View (Princeton Legacy Library)

By means of trying to droop ethical, ideological, or mental assumptions, a phenomenological interpretation of literature hopes to arrive "the issues themselves," the basic phenomena of being, area, and time, as they're constituted, by way of cognizance, in phrases. even if there was a practice of phenomenological feedback in Europe for the final 20 years, David Halliburton is the 1st to put in writing a normal research of an American writer from this actual perspective.

Sample text

In general, Vongehr’s considerations on these issues must be regarded as rather imprecise and inconclusive. In an appendix to his Von Bolzano zu Husserl. Eine Untersuchung über den Ursprung der phänomenologischen Bedeutungslehre (1996) Christian Beyer examines Husserl’s considerations of the occasionality of empirical meaning in “The problem of the ideality of meaning” and present an interpretation of Husserl’s solution, centred around a particular understanding of Husserl’s notion of the “determinable X”.

Above all, they take into account passages other than those dealing explicitly with occasional expressions and make some interesting connections between indexical expressions and proper names. On the other hand, their explanation of Husserl’s claim that all empirical predications have occasional meanings leaves a lot to be desired. Generally, their account is determined by an “externalist” interpretation of Husserl’s early conception of intentionality. They also suggest that Husserl’s later transcendental turn leads to unsolvable problems with regard to intentional directedness to realia.

A look at the content of the draft confirms this assumption. Here, Husserl introduces a new, “radical” distinction between occasional or empirical and ideal truth. He points out that although such a distinction 22 INTRODUCTION is made in the Prolegomena – probably referring to the distinction between vérités de raison and vérités de fait –, it misses the point (XX/1, 264). The reason is the following: /…/ since sufficient phenomenological insights into the make-up of the constitution of the transcendent in the context of experience were still lacking at the time of the first edition of the Logical Investigations (despite a series of beginnings, through which the way to a phenomenological analysis of empirical consciousness was opened for the first time).
