Beskrivning
Offering a systematic introduction to a vital disciplinePhenomenology is a now century-old school of philosophy, to which Alexander Schnell offers here a threefold introduction that explores its diversity of approaches. In What Is Transcendental Phenomenology?, Schnell provides an in-depth overview of the Husserlian phenomenological method and its fundamental concepts (epoché and reduction, eidetic variation, phenomenological description, and phenomenological construction). He then examines that method's limits, stressing the necessity of overcoming them in order to achieve a constructive approach while staying true to its fundamental disciplinary frameworks. Finally, he outlines a theory of understanding that expands the phenomenological method and highlights its speculative grounding before turning to speculative realists' criticisms of the field. Schnell's work shows that phenomenology can face the challenge of speculative thinking from an idealist standpoint, making a vital contribution to current debates about new, or speculative, realism. This important volume not only answers its titular question but, in its mode of discussing its subject, is itself phenomenology.

"An excellent example of a living method at work, What Is Transcendental Phenomenology? offers innovative ways to consider—and reconsider—the classical phenomenological method. Both exceptional and lucid, this work is a great contribution to research in the anglophone context." —Andreea Smaranda Aldea, DePaul University"What Is Transcendental Phenomenology? offers a high-level argument for a phenomenological speculative idealism set out in illuminating contrast to both classical German philosophy and classical transcendental phenomenology, with a focus on how to construe the concepts of reality, being, and meaning. Of special importance is the value of an initially non-evident kind of understanding for the refutation of a host of realisms that are deemed reductive or one-sided. The book's intricate defense of a version of 'phenomenological correlationism' serves ultimately as a call to pursue the promise of phenomenology for solving problems in contemporary philosophy. This is an instructive work of scholarship by one of the preeminent phenomenologists and scholars of phenomenology at work today." —Mary Beth Mader, University of Memphis
