'SOME ASPECTS OF THE RELATION BETWEEN THE LIVED BODY AND THE PHYSICAL BODY REVEALED THROUGH THE STATE OF VIOLENCE' "INTERNATIONAL HUSSERL RESEARCH SOCIETY" The Waterloo International Conference on 'HUSSERL AND THE IDEA OF PHENOMENOLOGY' was conceived for the purpose of providing, for the first time, a gathering of Hussed scholars at which they might exchange views concerning their current research. In this way, it should be possible to deter­ mine where phenomenology stands today. It seems desirable, however, that provision be made for a continuing exchange. Some of us feel, therefore, that the present Conference is an appropriate occasion for establishing an "INTERNATIONAL HUSSERL RESEARCH SOCIETY" Such a Society would gather scholars concerned chiefly with Hussed research - but marginally also with Phenomenology research related to Husserl. It could meet every two or three years for the purpose of exchanging the results of their work at conferences meant for the community of minds of Hussed scholars rather than for a wider Philosophical audience. The Society could also offer for Hussed and Phenomenology research an opportunity - hitherto nonexistent - to publish specialized essays in this field of work (of a size 40 to 120 pages) by issuing a Year Book devoted to this purpose. In view of the widespread interest in Phenomenology in general, the fomation of such a nucleus of fundamental research work appears imperative. Its international composition would greatly contribute to overcoming the limitations of regional confmement which leads, e.g., to the situation where young scholars work in siolation and are ignorant of similar work which has already been done in another country, and thus preclude the real progress in the field. I would be most interested to hear your reaction to this proposal. Would you be willing to take part in the organization committee for the inauguration of the Society? Would you have comments to make about this idea? Should you be interested in this project, please come to the organizational meeting of the Society which will be held on: 435 436 ANNEX Saturday evening at 9:00 p.m. at the party given by me for the participants of the Conference.

Hans Georg Gadamer and Herman Leo van Breda, Director of the Husserl Archives in Louvain, at the First International Phenomenology Congress of the International HusserI and Phenomenological Research Society, in Waterloo, Ontario, on Apri112, 1969. 437 ERLING ENG COMMENTS AFTER THE INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENOLOGY CONFERENCE IN MONTREAL 1974 Tradition of Spontaneity In his opening remarks of the third meeting of the International Hussed and Phenomeno­ logical Research Society in Montreal, March 26-30, 1974, Raymond Klibansky of the University of Montreal pointed out an interesting discrepancy between the English and French titles of the conference: 'Phenomenology and the Crisis of Western Culture" and "Phenomenologie et 1a Crise de I'Homme'. Is the crisis one of Western man alone or of mankind generally? Or if related, in what way? Understandably enough it was Husserl's Krisis which provided the principal backdrop for these discussions at Sir George Williams University under the auspices of the Canada Council, to explore the relevance of phenomenology for cultural praxis and renewal. Participation by African sociologists, representatives from Korea and the Soviet Union, contributed a realism to the ongoing debate not always present in predominantly philo­ sophical congresses. Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka, Secretary-General of the Society, in her opening address very wisely instigated the possibility of a dialectical framework for the ensuing discus­ sions by emphasizing the priority of "spontaneity" to the Husserlian "intentionality". Of course the question remained how such a dialectic starting from Hussed was to be distinguished from that of Plato or Hegel, both of whom stood in the shadows of the subsequent presentations and interventions. These centered about such diverse phenom­ enological contributors as Roman Ingarden, discussed by W. Strozewski of the Polish Academy of Sciences, and Maurice Blanchot, in the discourse of Claude Levesque of the University of Montreal. Still the issue of the relevance of phenomenology for action-related decisions re­ mained moot, despite dialectical accommodation in this direction. Quite unexpectedly and remarkably it was the contribution of Michel Masson on the third day of the meetings which provided a kind of breakthrough to the Congress theme. In his paper 'Continuite et discontinuite des valeurs: un essai d'interpretation dans 1a perspective chinoise' he both showed the relevance of Husserlian phenomenology for clarifying the nature of a non-Western cultural crisis and provided an illustration of the operative dialectic not thematized in the Hussedian opus. M. Masson referred to the crisis of Chinese Man as "a crisis of the traditional values which poses the question of the continuity or discontinuity of these values." But unlike the Krisis of Hussed, that of modern China has been, and continues to be, one of dissonance between Western and traditional Chinese values. So that "the choice between continuity and discontinuity tends to be identified with a choice between the 'Chinese essence' and westernization." In these circumstances any particular interpretation of the crisis involves a certain understanding of what is "Occidental" and what is "Chinese." To survive as a people the Chinese have had to transfer the traditional filial loyalty to the modern national state, recovering the value as such while enlarging its scope to include a new object. Thus with this 'break' from the traditional Confucian forms there has occurred, in the process of re-interpretation, a renewal of the age-old meaning at 438 ERLING ENG 439 another level. The argument of M. Masson was of course more complex than this, but these remarks will serve to illustrate the thrust of his contribution. No less importantly, this understanding of the Chinese crisis as an ongoing revolution with intermittent peaks of activity threw light on the deeper dialectic of Husserlian historiology, as expressed in his late dictum: "History is the grand fact of absolute being." For man, individually and collectively, while being a "time-binding animal", is subject to breaks in the continuity of his historical awareness,

THE BASIC DISTINCTIONS IN DER STREIT by Ingvar Johansson The paper presents Ingarden’s views on what he calls ‘modes of being’ (‘ways of existence’) and ‘existential moments’; the latter being constitutive parts of the former. Mainstream analytic philosophy has been dominated by the view that ‘existence’ can mean only existence simpliciter. Ingarden, on the other hand, discerns four possible modes of being, one of which is of special interest to semiotics: purely intentional being. It is of relevance for the ontological understanding not only of texts, but also of pictures and other sign-related entities. At the end, an extrapolated Ingardenian semiotic triangle is presented. 1. Ontological and metaphysical investigations – first part Volume I of Roman Ingarden’s Der Streit um die Existenz der Welt has the subtitle “Existentialontologie,” volume II the subtitle “Formalontologie,” and volume III “Über die kausale Struktur der realen Welt.” This paper will present the basic distinctions of the first volume.1 Ingarden distinguishes between four different kinds of philosophical investigations: existential-ontological, formal-ontological, material-ontological, and metaphysical. Existential-ontological investigations examine what modes of being or ways of existence that are in principle possible, i.e., what modes are not self-contradictory or internally absurd in some other way. In formal-ontological investigations the more precise nature of various kinds of entities such as those labeled ‘autonomous individual object’, ‘heteronomous individual object’, ‘idea’, ‘state of affairs’, and ‘relation’ are investigated.

  • The Quasi-Real World of Fiction and the Cognitive Value Of
    The Quasi-Real World of Fiction and The Cognitive Value of Literature in Roman Ingarden’s Philosophy of Literature* Murat ÇELİK** Makale Geliş / Recieved: 01.10.2018 Makale Kabul / Accepted: 01.11.2018 Abstract Literary works of art present us a fictional world in which the objects and states of affairs are purely intentional. These objects and state of affairs do not have a correlative in an ontic sphere that is independent from the work itself. However, that does not mean that the sentences in a literary artwork do not have any assertive power. The predicative sentences in a literary artwork assert something in a particular manner. Hence, literary works of art have a cognitive value. They say something to us about the world we live in, about our lives, our being on this world etc. But they do not teach us about the world in a straightforward way by referring directly to the extra-textual world. Rather they teach us by presenting us their own world; the quasi-real world of the text. In this paper I will try to reveal the particular manner by which the literary artworks help us to better understand our disposition through the world. I will achieve this aim by focusing on the structural and functional differences between the literary work of art and the factual work in Roman Ingarden’s literary theory. Keywords: Roman Ingarden, Quasi-real, Literary Work of Art, Scientific Work, Truth-value. * This article is an extended version of the second part of the first chapter of my unpublis- hed PhD dissertation entitled “An Ethics of Reading: Ingarden, Iser and Ricoeur” written at University of Sussex in 2017.

  • Roman Ingarden's Philosophy Reconsidered
    HORIZON 9 (2) 2020 : Introduction : W. Płotka, T. Byrne : 489–494 ФЕНОМЕНОЛОГИЧЕСКИЕ ИССЛЕДОВАНИЯ • STUDIES IN PHENOMENOLOGY • STUDIEN ZUR PHÄNOMENOLOGIE • ÉTUDES PHÉNOMÉNOLOGIQUES INTRODUCTION https://doi.org/10.21638/2226-5260-2020-9-2-489-494 INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION: ROMAN INGARDEN’S PHILOSOPHY RECONSIDERED Roman Ingarden’s (1893–1970) philosophical legacy is not limited exclusively to ontology, as it usually is regarded. His thought also addresses aesthetics, philosoph- ical anthropology, epistemology, ethics, axiology, philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, logic, philosophy of literature and original considerations on the history of philosophy. Ingarden’s philosophical investigations concern, but are not limited to such topics as the status of the world, intentionality, experience, the notion of object, intersubjective cognition, the existence and cognition of the literary artwork, time, the question of aesthetic and moral values, responsibility, and causal relations. What unites these different topics and accounts in Ingarden’s philosophical enterprise as a coherent project is the phenomenological approach, which Ingarden employs at the preliminary stage of research. Ingarden — who is educated in Lvov under Kazimierz Twardowski (1866–1938) and later in Göttingen and in Freiburg im Breisgau under Edmund Husserl (1859–1938) — is one of the key figures of the Göttingen Circle and develops in the eidetic line of the phenomenological movement. Although from the very beginning, he criticizes Husserl for falling into idealism and for adopting a tran- scendental stance, his own original philosophical project is formulated in a life-long discussion with Husserl’s ideas. At the same time, his project is influenced by other prominent philosophical personalities of modern and contemporary philosophy, in- cluding Kant, Bergson, Scheler, Hartmann, Conrad-Martius, Stein, not to mention the Lvov-Warsaw School of logic, and many others with whom he discusses the most important philosophical questions.

  • 19Chronology of Works in Aesthetics and Philosophy Of
    Chronology of 19 Works in Aesthetics and Philosophy of Art Darren Hudson Hick Notes on Selection This chronology, as with this Companion as a whole, focuses on those works that contribute to the Western tradition of aesthetics, and, beginning in the twentieth century, in the analytic current of thought within that tradition (as opposed to the Continental one). As with the history of Western philosophy in general, the study of philosophical problems in art and beauty dates back to the ancient period, and is infl uenced by the major philosophical and cultural move- ments through the centuries. Much of what survives from the ancient to the post-Hellenistic period does so in fragments or references. In cases where only fragments or references exist, and where dating these is especially problematic, the author or attributed author and (where available) his dates of birth and death are listed. Where works have not survived even as fragments, these are not listed. As well, much of what sur- vives up to the medieval period is diffi cult to date, and is at times of disputable attribution. In these cases, whatever information is available is listed. Aesthetics in the period between the ancients and the medievals tends to be dominated by adherence to Platonic, Aristotelian, and other theories rooted in the ancient period, and as such tends to be generally lacking in substantive the- oretical advancements. And while still heavily infl uenced by ancient thinking, works from the medieval period tend also to be heavily infl uenced by religious thinking, and so many issues pertaining to art and aesthetics are intertwined with issues of religion as “theological aesthetics.” Movements in art theory and aes- thetics in the Renaissance, meanwhile, were largely advanced by working artists, and so tend to be couched in observational or pedagogical approaches, rather than strictly theoretical ones.

  • Towards Formalization of Information
    Towards a Formal Ontology of Information Selected Ideas of Krzysztof Turek Roman M Krzanowski Abstract There are many ontologies of the world or of specific phenomena such as time, matter, space, and quantum mechanics1. However, ontologies of information are rather rare. One of the reasons behind this is that information is most frequently associated with communication and computing, and not with ‘the furniture of the world’. But what would be the nature of an ontology of information? For it to be of significant import it should be amenable to formalization in a logico- grammatical formalism. A candidate ontology satisfying such a requirement can be found in some of the ideas of K. Turek, presented in this paper. Turek outlines the ontology of information conceived of as a part of nature, and provides the ‘missing link’ to the Z axiomatic set theory, offering a proposal for developing a formal ontology of information both in its philosophical and logico-grammatical representations. Key words: information, formal ontology of information, set theory, form-matter complex, substance, structures, relations 1. Introduction This paper is an attempt to present selected thoughts of K. Turek, a Polish-language philosopher whose writings remain inaccessible to non-Polish speakers. Turek discusses the conceptualization of information, its formal ontology and its representation using the Z axiomatic set theory. Turek’s ideas on the nature of information, though written between 1978 and 1981, may still be of relevance today. Turek perceived information as a formative element of the Universe 2, and the third element of reality in its own right, with matter3 and energy being the other two.

  • Plato and Roman Ingarden
    On the Several Modes of Being in Plato A widely accepted view of Plato’s metaphysics is that he held what may be characterized as a “degrees of reality” theory and that his metaphysics can be equated with the theory of forms (or ideas). In this paper, I argue that the “degrees of reality” model is flawed, that the theory of forms is held by Plato throughout the dialogues, and that a “modes of being” model is a better interpretative model because it retains the value of the theory of forms and shows the relation of the theory to his wider observations on being per se. Caveats In attempting to understand the work of a philosopher, especially when the writings are as rich and complex as those of Plato, one may find that the interpreter, no less than the translator, is a traitor, albeit a traitor unawares, a risk that applies also to the writer of the present paper. However, there are criteria for assessing the value of an interpretation. A good interpretation must consider various contexts of the writing, the historical period, the problems and audience addressed, the relation of the writing to the other works of the author, the writing style, and the writer’s terminology, especially when the central concepts are complex, technical, or newly introduced with highly specialized meanings. But perhaps the most important test for an interpretation is whether it provides a deeper, more coherent, and fruitful understanding of the work. In a certain sense, the interpreter should drop out the “I” in interpretation and attend to the work as the true lover attends to his beloved.

  • The Question of Legitimizing Law in Adolf Reinachâ•Žs Phenomenology
    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS LODZIENSIS FOLIA IURIDICA 90, 2020 http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/0208-6069.90.05 Tomasz Bekrycht* https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8944-6257 THE QUESTION OF LEGITIMIZING LAW IN ADOLF REINACH’S PHENOMENOLOGY Abstract. When speaking about legitimizing law we can mainly mean analysis which concerns metaphysical justification for what is called the phenomenon of law. From the metaphysical point of view, the justification of law means indicating the foundation of its existence. It is about seeking (indicating) an esse (essence) basis of law, in line with the task set by the metaphysical analysis, namely seeking an answer to the question: Why does object X exist? And in the answer, there will appear a formula indicating the final reasons for its existence (ratio essendi). The same ideas that we can find in Adolf Reinach’s principal work, The Apriori Foundations of the Civil Law, provide a possibility of better understanding this important issue of legal philosophy, namely the question of legitimizing law (justifying law). The aim of this article is to present that argument. Keywords: legal phenomenology, legitimizing law, positive law, speech acts theory, soziale Akte. INTRODUCTION The same ideas that we can find in Adolf Reinach’s principal work, The Apriori Foundations of the Civil Law, provide a possibility of better understanding an important issue of legal philosophy, namely the question of legitimizing law (justifying law). If we enrich and complete these ideas with similar remarks from Roman Ingarden’s ontology, we can, in my opinion, give quite a coherent and convincing argument on this issue.

In particular it canthenbe pointedout that: i) soundis separable from the scene,but using sound VR becomes enriched; ii) the mainrole inliterature is left for the imagination,while inVR we findrichnessinconcretization. Second, it is argued in discussion that works in VR can be qualified as works of art. These electronic works may have all the aesthetical qualities (basedonthe phenomenology of Roman Ingarden) of the works of art in the traditional sense.

  • On the Kinship of Spirit and Thought: John Henry Newman and Edith Stein
    chapter 1 A Gloss to the Biographies They that are whole can heal others […]. John Henry Newman … Only the person who renounces self- importance,, who no longer struggles to defend or assert himself, can be large enough for God’s boundless action. Edith Stein ∵ John Henry Newman lived in the turbulent period of the nineteenth century that saw the rise of socialism and communism, in an era that made people look with awe at the encroachment of science onto the time- honoured territories of, for example, religion (let it suffice to mention the theory of evolution that had seemingly undermined the hitherto beliefs). When analysing the nine- teenth century, one cannot forget about two, apparently contradictory, trends. On the one hand, there are the high hopes awakened by scientific endeavours which, in turn, give rise in the romantic era to popular robustness, in political life characterised by the ideas of expansionism and nationalism; but, on the other, it is a time when the human psyche often feels at a loss, when it suf- fers from emotional inadequacy and fragility. It senses an incongruity amid this inhuman technological milieu of the “brave new world.” The modern mind, deprived of the traditional fulcrums of stability and armed solely with individual choice, but no criteria as to which choices are good and which are bad, loses its course like a ship tossed about on a stormy sea. The theory of evolution added momentum to this feeling, especially since the authoritative voice of the institutional Church was long wanting.1 The British biographer of Newman, Meriol Trevor (1919–2000), rightly observes that it “so shocked and 1 Charles Darwin published his Origin of Species in 1859.
