Edmund Husserl. Untersuchungen zur Urteilstheorie

Edmund Husserl. Untersuchungen zur Urteilstheorie

Edmund Husserl

SPRINGER-VERLAG NEW YORK INC.
2009
sidottu
Die im vorliegenden Band herausgebenen Forschungsmanuskripten basieren auf den sogenannten U-Blättern, einer von Edith Stein im Auftrag Husserls 1917 zusammengestellten Manuskriptsammlung zur "Urteilstheorie". Für Husserl war die Urteilstheorie das Kernstück der phänomenologischen Theorie der Vernunft, da in ihr die Probleme der Logik, der Ausdrucks- und Bedeutungslehre sowie der Erkenntnistheorie in ihrer wechselseitigen Verbundenheit zum Austrag kommen. Die im ersten Teil des Bandes veröffentlichten Texte aus dem Zeitraum 1893 bis 1899 zeigen, wie Husserls urteilstheoretische Forschungen ihren Ausgang von der intensiven Auseinandersetzung mit der Urteilstheorie seines Lehrers Franz Brentano nehmen. Diese Texte bieten einen wichtigen Einblick in die Entwicklung und Vorgeschichte von Husserls Bedeutungs- und Erkenntnislehre in den Logischen Untersuchungen; behandelt werden insbesondere die Scheidung von subjektiv-psychologischer und objektiv-logischer Forschungsrichtung, die Erfüllungslehre, die Lehre von der kategorialen Anschauung, die Bedeutungskategorien sowie der Evidenz- und Wahrheitsbegriff. Besondere Beachtung verdienen in diesen frühen Manuskripten Husserls Bestimmungen der Begriffe "Satz" und "Sachverhalt", insofern es sich hierbei um Schlüsselbegriffe seiner späteren, im zweiten Teil des Bandes dokumentierten Urteilstheorie handelt. Dieser zweite Teil kann als Ergänzung zu den in anderen Bänden der Husserliana herausgegebenen Göttinger Vorlesungen Husserls zur Logik und Erkenntnistheorie angesehen werden. Er vervollständigt das Bild von der Weiterentwicklung und den grundlegenden Veränderungen in Husserls Bedeutungs- und Urteilslehre nach den Logischen Untersuchungen. In den hier veröffentlichten, aus den Jahren 1908 bis 1918 stammenden Texten versucht Husserl sich unter anderem über den Urteilsbegriff selbst Klarheit zu verschaffen. Hierbei gilt es einerseits das im Urteil Vermeinte genau zubestimmen und Satz als ideale Bedeutung vom Sachverhalt als Urteilsgegenständlichkeit sorgfältig zu unterscheiden und die mit diesen Termini verbundenen Äquivokationen zu beseitigen; andrerseits geht es darum das Urteilen als Denkakt zu seinen anschaulichen Vorstellungsunterlagen ins Verhältnis zu setzen. Beachtenswert sind desweiteren Husserls Bemühungen um eine Klärung des Unterschieds zwischen Wesensurteilen und empirischen Urteilen. Ein umfangreiches, für die Methode phänomenologischer Deskription bedeutsames Manuskript ist einer Untersuchung der immanent-deiktischen Urteile und ihrer Gültigkeit gewidmet.

Edmund Campion

Edmund Campion

Gerard Kilroy

Ashgate Publishing Limited
2015
sidottu
Edmund Campion: A Scholarly Life is the response, at long last, to Evelyn Waugh’s call, in 1935, for a ’scholarly biography’ to replace Richard Simpson's Edmund Campion (1867). Whereas early accounts of his life focused on the execution of the Jesuit priest, this new biography presents a more balanced assessment, placing equal weight on Campion’s London upbringing among printers and preachers, and on his growing stature as an orator in an Oxford riven with religious divisions. Ireland, chosen by Campion as a haven from religious conflict, is shown, paradoxically, to have determined his life and his death. Gerard Kilroy here draws on newly discovered manuscript sources to reveal Campion as a charismatic and affectionate scholar who was finding fulfilment as priest and teacher in Prague when he was summoned to lead the first Jesuit mission to England. The book argues that the delays in his long journey suggest reluctant acceptance, even before he was told that Dr Nicholas Sander had brought ’holy war’ to Ireland, so that Campion landed in an England that was preparing for papal invasion. The book offers fresh insights into the dramatic search for Campion, the populist nature of the disputations in the Tower, and the legal issues raised by his torture. It was the monarchical republic itself that, in pursuit of the Anjou marriage, made him the beloved ’champion’ of the English Catholic community. Edmund Campion: A Scholarly Life presents the most detailed and comprehensive picture to date of an historical figure whose loyalty and courage, in the trial and on the scaffold, swiftly became legendary across Europe.

Peter Stanlis

AldineTransaction
2006
nidottu
In this unique book, Peter J. Stanlis, the leading Burke scholar in America, has collected all the most important works and speeches of Edmund Burke (1729-1797), British statesman, political philosopher, and founder of modern conservative thought and, with due care to preserve the beauty of Burke's prose, edited them down to their essentials."The main purpose of these selections," Stanlis explains, "is to present extensive and in the main unbroken samples of Burke's most representative thought in his most characteristic style, on a great variety of subjects."In this major effort you can find--to name only a few topics covered--Burke's defense of ordered liberty, his advocacy of secure property rights, his love of Christianity and Europe's moral tradition, and his impassioned jeremiad against the orgy of destruction that the French Revolution became. Stanlis's general introduction gives important insight into Burke's early life, education, professional training, literary and political career, prose style, political philosophy, and more. In addition, each selection is preceded by a headnote that clarifies the selections in their historical context and includes a brief analytical interpretation. A chronology highlights important dates in Burke's life and career.In its compactness and comprehensiveness, this volume is the quintessential Burke reader. It will be of interest to historians, political scientists, and students of literature and intellectual history.

Edmund and Rosemary Go to Hell: A Story We All Really Need Now More Than Ever

Edmund and Rosemary Go to Hell: A Story We All Really Need Now More Than Ever

Bruce Eric Kaplan

SIMON SCHUSTER
2011
nidottu
One Sunday afternoon, an ordinary couple named Edmund and Rosemary decide to go for a walk in their Brooklyn neighborhood. Within moments, they are plunged into a wonderful, nerve-racking, hilarious, unique adventure that begins with a cell phone and ends in a jungle halfway around the world. In Edmund and Rosemary Go to Hell, famed New Yorker cartoonist Bruce Eric Kaplan uses his trademark incisive wit to explore what it is that prevents us from seeing all that we have. By turns wickedly funny and oddly touching, this provocative and ultimately hopeful picture book for adults will appeal to anyone who has ever been stuck in traffic or, more to the point, stuck inside themselves.
