The aim of The Husserl Page, which in reality consists of many distinct pages, is twofold. First, this site provides a series of originally created bibliographic and informational pages relevant for research into Husserl's philosophy and development thereof. Second, this site supplies an exhaustive listing of (external) internet sites relevant for research into the life and philosophy of Edmund Husserl. To get a sense of the structure of this site and its contents, you may wish to consult the site map. The map provides a catalog of all the pages herein and indicates their placement. But nowhere in these pages will you find a synopsis, summary, or other such treatise on Husserl's phenomenology, so you may wish to jump to the chronological bibliography of Husserl's writings. Here you may search for the various "introductions" to phenomenology by Husserl himself. If you are looking for such a text, the Encyclopaedia Britannica article on phenomenology stands as one of the best of Husserl's short works. Finished in the years 1927-28 and (in a heavily edited and distorted version) published in the 14th ed. of The Encyclopaedia Britannica, this work was intended by Husserl to be a joint project between himself and Martin Heidegger. (The collaboration failed, however, and Heidegger's contributions were not ultimately incorporated into the article submitted for publication. Hence, the article can serve both as an introduction to Husserlian phenomenology and as a platform by which to examine similarities and differences in the Husserlian and Heideggerian philosophies.) While not as dense as the Cartesian Meditations or as fragmentary as the Crisis texts, the Encyclopaedia Britannica article provides a concise, readable and mature statement of Husserl's transcendental phenomenology. An adequate translation can be found in Husserl: Shorter Works, edited by Frederick Elliston & Peter McCormick or Joseph J. Kockelmans' book, Edmund Husserl's Phenomenology. Without question, the best source for this text is Thomas Sheehan & Richard Palmer's edition of the Husserliana Collected Works, Volume 6, Psychological and Transcendental Phenomenology and the Confrontation with Heidegger. Copies of these books can be found most likely in an academic library, at a good bookseller, through the publisher or, surprisingly, online. |
