They also justify two branches of the development of Husserl’s phenomenology — one shows how the phenomenological method of reduction is applicable to constitution of essences of particular phenomena, in this case to music; the other accentuates how the concepts of life-world and intersubjectivity are developed in the context of music. This study analyzes how Husserl’s phenomenology influences Ingarden’s and Schutz’s views on music; how such basie notions of phenomenology as intentiona!ity, constitution of es­ sences, intersubjectivity, life-world, and internai time modify their philosophical conceptions of music. Ingarden employs a method of phenomenological reduction for the Identification of ontological struetures and modes of being of the musical work, and shows how the essence of music dwells in the musical work itself, while Schutz emphasizes the common sodai experience of music and analyzes music as an intersubjective and social phenomenon. The philosophers share two approaches in common: (a) they both turn away from transcendental to reālist phenomenol- ogy and (b) they both use phenomenological concepts for deseriptions of music. The primary resources of the study are Ingarden’s The M u sic a l W ork and Schutz’s M aking M usic Together. A Study in Social Relationship and M ozart and Philosophers. Comparing the views expressed in these works we see both similar and different approaches to phenomenological interpretation of music. 160 Ineta Kivle Key words: music, time, Husserl, Ingarden, Schutz, phenomenology Philosophical thinking about music and listening to music constitute dif- ferent meanings of music. In the process of listening to music we do not analyze essential structures of music but enjoy sonority; when we begin to analyze what we have listened to, we move to a theoretical approach, intentions are no longer directed to the sounding phenomena but to our thoughts, impressions and emotions. Husserl writes: “Just as a phantasied sound is not a sound but the phantasy of a sound, or just as tonal sensation and tonal phantasy are fundamentally different and are not to be considered as possibly the same, except the difference in interpretation, likewise pri­ māra intuitively remembered sound is intrinsically something other than the perceived sound, and the primary remembrance of sound is something other than the sensation of sound.”1 If we listen to music, we experience the melody; however, if we think about the phenomenon of music, we are in a phenomenological attitude and practice philosophical thinking. If we constitute structures of internai time consciousness, we explore the method of phenomenological thinking. As an object the heard melody is the same in both situations - in listening to the melody and in thinking about it - but the melody appears differently at the two times because it is grasped by different intentions and constitutes different meanings: “The sound itself is the same but in the way “that it appears” the sound is continually different.”2 The development of the phenomenology of music would perhaps have been unlikely without Husserl’s contribution. While he does not write about music directly, he provides the impulse to think about mu­ sic as a time-object, intentional object and meaningful intersubjective phenomenon, showing ontological structures of the phenomenon. If the ontological structure of any phenomenon is a dynamic correlation be- tween objectivity and appearance, then what are the exclusive features of 1 Edmund Husserl, The Phenomenology o f Internai Time-Consciousness, ed. Martin Hei- degger, trans. James S. Churchill (Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1964), 54. 2 Ibid., 45. Music in the Phenomenology ofRoman Ingarden and Alfrēd Schutz 161 the phenomenon of music that differentiate it from other phenomena? Husserl’s descriptions of sound as a temporal object and his elucidation of the structure of internai time consciousness give clear phenomenological analyses of music. Husserl’s phenomenology describes sound as it is given in experience, and alongside his descriptions of sound he elucidates on- tological structures, essences, formation of meanings, intentionality, the phenomenal time of experience, and the internai time of time-objects. Alongside descriptions of sound Husserl’s approach constitutes intentional structures of internai time consciousness. The question: “How do T perceive music?” is the beginning of the phe­ nomenological constitution of music. Later phenomenologists of music do not repeat the question: How is music as a meaningful phenomenon given in the stream of consciousness? They do not analyze the constitution of meaning and the pure ‘I’, nor the techniques of phenomenological and tran- scendental reduction, bracketing and reflection. They turn away from Husserl’s revelations of transcendental phenomenology and create realistic phenomenology in analysis of particular phenomena. Both Ingarden and Schutz pay critical attention to phenomenological transcendentalism: In­ garden criticizes Husserl for dependence on the world of consciousness; however, he explores reduction as a methodological way for identification of ontological structures and gives a realistic description of the work of art. Schutz suggests that this is not an appropriate approach for the theoretical explication of social structures and the phenomenology of music. Ingarden’s Realistic Phenomenology of Music Ingarden does reject Husserl’s views regarding the constitution of essence by turning away from the natūrai attitude to the phenomenological atti- tude, the slogan “back to things themselves”, phenomenological reduction, and reflection. Ingarden explores these cognitions as evidently given; he does not repeat them but concentrates on the musical work itself. Ingarden’s approach is centred upon the question: How is music in itself? He is the first to elaborate such detailed analyses of the ontological structures ofworks of art: literature, music, painting, architecture, and film. 162 Ineta Kivle Because of the belated translation of The M usical Work into English, the references of later phenomenologists of music to Ingarden’s

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.

  • (RECENT) EPISTEMOLOGY Christian Beyer Edmund Husserl's
    CHAPTER ONE HUSSERL’S TRANSCENDENTAL PHENOMENOLOGY CONSIDERED IN THE LIGHT OF (RECENT) EPISTEMOLOGY Christian Beyer Edmund Husserl’s transcendental phenomenology represents an epis- temological project which he sometimes refers to as “First Philosophy”. He also speaks of “Cartesian Meditations” and stresses that “the first philosophical act” is “the universal overthrow of all prior beliefs, however acquired” (Hua VIII, 23).1 This project aims at nothing less than a philo- sophical understanding of our whole view of the world and ourselves. I propose to investigate into this undertaking regarding both its method and content and to relate it, where useful, to more recent (analytic) epistemology. For Husserl, the task of First Philosophy is to philosophically explicate our access to, or being in, the world, i.e., the intentionality of our con- sciousness. By an intentional state of consciousness, an intentional (lived) experience, he understands a state of consciousness that has a subject matter which it is directed toward, so to speak (cp. the literal meaning of the Latin verb intendere); a state that is “as of ” something, represents something. It was Husserl’s teacher Franz Brentano who brought this notion to the attention of philosophers and psychologists. In his Psychol- ogy from an Empirical Standpoint he says: Every mental phenomenon is characterized by what the Scholastics of the Middle Ages called the intentional (or mental) inexistence of an object, and what we might call, though not wholly unambiguously, reference to a content, direction toward an object (which is not to be understood here as meaning a real thing [eine Realität]), or immanent objectivity.

    o cho l and f S C o o l g a n n i r t i u v e o J P International Journal of School and l s a y n ISSN: 2469-9837 c o h i t o a l o n r g e y t I n Cognitive Psychology Commentary Phenomenological Research Methods: Extensions of Husserl and Heidegger Effie Heotis* College of Arts and Sciences, Grand Canyon University, Phoenix, USA ABSTRACT The relevance to understanding the lived experience and consciousness is the focus of a movement that began in the early part of the 20th Century. Phenomenology is a movement that explores the lived experience of a given phenomenon. Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger were two of the most prominent philosophers who spearheaded this movement and subsequently, they developed their own distinct philosophical approaches and methods of inquiry as means to exploring and understanding the human experience. Various and more distinctive psychological research approaches emerged in other disciplines from the philosophies of Husserl and Heidegger, and the researchers who developed these methods contribute to expanding repertoires aimed at understanding of the human experience. Keywords: Phenomenology; Phenomenological research methods; The lived experience; Husserl; Heidegger INTRODUCTION which are uniquely yet collectively designed to shed light on the human experience. Phenomenological research methods are grounded in the rich traditions of phenomenology and hermeneutics and especially Descriptive or Interpretive? the philosophical views of Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger. Central to Husserl’s claim is that the essence of a Descriptive oriented phenomenological research methods phenomenon could be understood through an investigation and maintain that capturing a vivid and precise description description concerning core components of one’s experience concerning the perception of the lived experience can lead to while suspending suppositions [1,2].

  • 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.

  • HUSSERVS CRISIS of WESTERN SCIENCE Editor's Preface This
    Appendix I ALFRED SCHUTZ HUSSERVS CRISIS OF WESTERN SCIENCE Edited by FRED KERSTEN Editor's Preface This letter of Alfred Schutz to Erlc Voegelin was written between 11 November and 13 December, 1943. It contains an extensive reply to a sweeping critique of Husserl's Die Krisis der europl1ischen WlSsenschaften und die transzend­ entale Phllnomenologie1 which his friend Erlc Voegelin had developed in a letter to him. Voegelin had found merit in some of Husserl's lines of thought but on the whole rejected them as much in their references to historlcal trends in European philosophy, which he showed to be arbitrarily selective and hence at variance with historio­ graphical facts and objectivity, as in their philosophical inferlority because they were merely epistemological under­ takings and as such did not reach the level of genuine philosophizing (i.e., they did not constitute a metaphysics). Schutz's defense of Husserl followed two lines of thought: First, that Voegelin misunderstood the whole philosophical intent of Husserl when he considered his interest in past philosophers as serving historiographical interests instead of interest in the problems they had posed; and, second, even if the whole philosophy of Husserl could be subsumed under the heading of epistemology, it would still maintain its high philosophical respectability. At the very end of the letter Schutz spoke of the possibility of continuing this defense of Husserl's way of philosophizing in a further letter. However, no evidence has surfaced to indicate that he found the time to continue his attempt at vindicating Husserl's philosophical dignity. 1 Edmund Husserl, Philosophia, 1936.

Stanford A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Thesis Committee: David A. Johnson, Chair Richard H. Beyler Douglas Morgan Michael Reardon Portland State University © 2010 ABSTRACT Leo Strauss resurrected a life-approach of the ancient Greeks and reformulated it as an alternative to the existentialism of his age that grew out of a radicalized historicism. He attempted to resuscitate the tenability of a universal grounded in nature (nature understood in a comprehensive experiential sense not delimited to the physical, sensibly- perceived world alone) that was historically malleable. Through reengagement with Plato and Socrates and by addressing the basic premises built into the thought of Friedrich Nietzsche and Martin Heidegger, Strauss resurrected poetry (art, or the mythos) that Enlightenment thinkers had discarded, and displayed its reasonableness on a par with the modern scientific approach as an animating informer of life.

It shows that Beauvoir’s notion of philosophy stems from the phenomenological interpretation of Cartesianism which emphasizes the role of evidence, self-criticism, and dialogue. Simone de Beauvoir is not usually considered a philosopher, and her works, including The Ethics of Ambiguity (Pour une morale de l’ambiguïté 1947) and The Second Sex (Le Deuxième sexe 1949), are not usually studied as philosophical.1 Beauvoir is read as a novelist and essayist, and her nonfictional works are taken as sociohistorical studies—popular rather than scholarly, moral rather than ethical. This common view is fundamentally mistaken. I show that Simone de Beauvoir is a philosopher and that she herself considered her work to be phi- losophical. Her understanding of philosophy, however, was specific, and this specificity is the theme of my paper. My claim is that the philosophical context in which Beauvoir operated is the phenomenology of body that Edmund Husserl initiated and Maurice Merleau-Ponty further developed. So I argue against the traditional under- standing according to which Beauvoir’s philosophical notions stemmed from Jean-Paul Sartre’s works; but I also question the more recent argument that Beauvoir based her views on Martin Heidegger’s work.

  • 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.
