The Phenomenology of Internal Time-Consciousness Kindle Edition

by Edmund Husserl (Author), Martin Heidegger (Editor), Calvin O. Schrag (Introduction), Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 58 ratings
An exploration of the terrain of consciousness in the light of its temporality from the father of phenomenology.

The Phenomenology of Internal Time-Consciousness is a translation of Edmund Husserl’s Vorlesungen zur Phänomenologie des inneren Zeitbewußtseins. The first part of the book was originally presented as a lecture course at the University of Göttingen in the winter semester of 1904–1905, while the second part is based on additional supplementary lectures that he gave between 1905 and 1910. The pervading theme of these essays and lectures is the temporal constitution of a pure datum of sensation and the self-constitution of “phenomenological time” which underlies such a constitution. Husserl identifies two categories of temporality—retention and protention—and outlines how temporality provides the form for perception, phantasy, imagination, memory, and recollection. He demonstrates a distinction between cosmic and phenomenological time and explores the relevance of phenomenological time for the constitution of temporal objects. The ideas Husserl developed here are explored further in his Ideas and were pursued until the end of his philosophical career.

“As an addition to the small body of Husserl’s writings now available in English (Ideas 1931; Meditations, 1960), this book is essential to even a small collection of source works on contemporary philosophy.” —Choice

    5.0 out of 5 stars Probably the most incredible discussion on space-time & consciousness
    Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2024

    The text is heavy if you read too fast. You need to have some familiarity with Husserl's usage of "essence" as it is not the same as the Aristotelian notion. By Husserlian essence is to identify the invariant structures of phenomena that are "given" or "presented" to consciousness; invariant as in testing against phenomena by their dependencies and supplemental characteristics. He works out how various acts of consciousness (recollection, imagination, perception, and so on) operate through the present, past, and future. His distinction of retention-protention is a fruitful relationship to speak about the flux of time in the presentation of phenomena and investigates the necessary and contingent relations through them.

    It is such an amazing book, it is a must-read for those wishing to learn Husserl's descriptive approach in practice. Probably one of the deepest explorations on the question of time perhaps next to Heidegger's hermeneutical investigation.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Most Esoteric Heavy Book Of Alltime
    Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2007
    What can you say about one of the greatest thinkers of alltime who inspired other greatest thinkers of alltime? Well, one could say that this book - which often isn't even listed as a work of his on certain lists (see wikipedia) is his very very best. By far the most insightful book ever written about how consciousness interacts with the reality of space-time. His thought provoking ideas into intentionalities and replaying memories is nothing short of amazing. The appendix to this book will take you a decade to absorb. Incredible thoughts for the late 1800's and early 1900's.
