Alexander Schnell: The Discovery of Pre-Phenomenality, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book presents the current state of theoretical phenomenology today and highlights new perspectives for the overall field. It presents the historical sources of the new transcendental phenomenology where the focus is on Heidegger, Derrida and Richir and where it becomes clear that various basic coordinates of classical phenomenology are questioned or even completely overturned. Further, fundamental questions of phenomenological research are posed and treated anew -- especially with regard to truth, phenomenality, the absolute and a phenomenological concept of the divine. This leads to the development of a generative phenomenology in the theoretical sense, for which self-reflective processes of sense-formation are at the center.

The main thesis is that the new theoretical phenomenology transcends the sphere of the phenomenally given and thereby discovers "pre-phenomenality". The book is aimed at researchers, students, and those interested in contemporary philosophy, particularly in the areas of phenomenology and post-structuralism. Since it pursues a phenomenological-speculative approach that ties in with the transcendental philosophies of Kant and Fichte, it is also of interest to those familiar with classical German philosophy who are seeking a connection to contemporary issues.
