Lecture 2 Phenemenology
Phenemenology
- experience of phenomena as starting point; extract essential features (essence) from it
- observed isn’t a fixed object, but an intentional act created by consciousness
● object essence resides in individual intentional relationship with it
○ subjectively shared perception/meaning → common experience → cultures
- inner consciousness: studies phenomena from point of view of the researched
- essence is dependent; based on interpretation
● essence not as explanation of regularities, but a way people make sense of the world
Heidegger
- what is the meaning of being?
● time: horizon of being
● dead: not-being
- being is intelligible: not a thing, but a relationship between thing-human
● overcome Cartesian subject-object split; also explain it
● how can this relationship (dasein) be understood?
- dasein: way we live our life and deal with the world
- being in: own being founds knowledge, not the world around us
● lived space: subjective space created by being-in → dwelling
● dwelling: complex process of home-making; home different for everyone
Phenomenological philosophers
- Merleau-Ponty: advocate of subjectivity; own thinking is superior → inspired other thinkers
- Descartes: is what I observe real?
● res cogitans (soul/mind) and res extensa (physical world) zijn onafhankelijk
○ soul can reflect on the world → cogito ergo sum (ik denk, dus ik ben)
- Kant: space as pre-condition to observe and image the physical world
- Hegel: dualism of res cogitans + res extensa make reality a dynamic process
● thesis evokes an antitheses which generates a new synthesis
- Hüsserl: empirical knowledge never justified, so make assumptions; phenemenological reduction
● transcedental phenemenology: methodology to understand human experience
Space-place distinction
- mind thinks, but body as starting point for experiences, as the body engages with the world
● intentionality of the body; bodily perspective → able to perceive/experience space
● space: objective reality → experience → place: subjective reality
○ place is space that became familiar and meaningful because of experience
