Patocka, like few others before or since, combined what was best in Husserl and Heidegger, but at the same time found for himself a distinct, original philosophical voice. Both his originality and his synthesis of the two dominant strands of classical phenomenology are evident here, as Patocka pursues the threefold theme of subject body, human community, and the phenomenological understanding of "world." This volume is an excellent introduction to philosophy in the phenomenological tradition.

In his last work, "Crisis of the European Sciences and Transcendental Phenomenology," Edmund Husserl formulated a radical new approach to phenomenological philosophy. Unlike his previous works, in the "Crisis" Husserl embedded this formulation in an ambitious reflection on the essence and value of the idea of rational thought and culture, a reflection that he considered to be an urgent necessity in light of the political, social, and intellectual crisis of the interwar period. In this book, James Dodd pursues an interpretation of Husserl's text that emphasizes the importance of the problem...

In a way, the problem of the body in Husserl' s writings is relatively straightfo r- ward: it is an exercise in faithful description and elaboration of a sense or mean- ing, that of the "lived body," using the tools and methods of intentional analysis. What is to be described is nothing exotic, but a recognizable, familiar element of experience; further, it is not something limited to any special type of experience, but is ever-present, whether it is in the background or the center of attention. Thus the lived body is, in a way, the most mundane of topics in phenomenology, to be du1y noted as...

The subject of this study is Husserl's theory of meaning as it appears in his writings from the Logical Investigations to the Crisis of the European Sciences. The first chapter focuses on HusserI's critique of psychologism and the theory of meaning that stems from it. The second chapter takes its departure from the question of HusserI's attitude towards the Cartesian tradition, then presents the transcendental (noematic) theory of meaning represented by The Idea of Phenome- nology, Ideas, and Cartesian Meditations. The third chapter deals with Husserl's interpretation of time consciousness...

Die Autoren beginnen mit einem historischen Ruckblick auf die Entstehung der modernen Physik und die ersten Erfolge bei der Beschreibung der vier fundamentalen Krafte der Natur: der Elektrodynamik, der Schwachen und Starken Kernkrafte und der Schwerkraft. Die Darstellung der groen Fortschritte der 60er und 70er Jahre mit der Entstehung des Standardmodells der Elementarteilchenphysik ist im Aufbau eher systematisch. Der Schwerpunkt liegt aber stets auf der Einfuhrung des Lesers in die Konzepte und Begriffe dieser Wissenschaft, ohne aber den mathematischen Apparat in Anspruch zu nehmen. Wie die...

This book pursues the problem of whether violence can be understood to be constitutive of its own sense or meaning, as opposed to being merely instrumental. Dodd draws on the resources of phenomenological philosophy, and takes the form of a series of dialogues between figures both inside and outside of this tradition. The central figures considered include Carl von Clausewitz, Carl Schmitt, Hannah Arendt, Jean-Paul Sartre, Ernst Junger, and Martin Heidegger, and the study concludes with an analysis of the philosophy of Jan Patocka.
