Bøger af Aron Gurwitsch

This book presents the remarkable correspondence between Alfred Schutzand Aron Gurwitsch, emigre philosophers influenced by Edmund Husserl, who fledEurope on the eve of World War II and ultimately became seminal figures in theestablishment of phenomenology in the United States. Their deep and lastingfriendship grew out of their mutual concern with the question of the connectionsbetween science and the life-world. Interwoven with philosophicalexchange is the two scholars' encounter with the unfamiliar problems of Americanacademic life -- what Gurwitsch called the "passology" of exile. Apart from itsbrilliant and moving portrait of two distinguished men, the correspondence holdsrich significance for current issues in philosophy and the socialsciences.

This volume contains Gurwitsch's magnum opus, which emphasizes how items in the thematic field are relevant to the theme. It is introduced by his student Richard Zaner. This volume also includes the posthumous text, Marginal Consciousness.

This is the first of six volumes of Gurwitsch's writings. It documents his thought while in France and includes the text based on his four lecture courses at the Sorbonne during the 1930s plus autobiographical sketches and critical reviews of works by others.

The second of a planned six-volume edition of Gurwitsch's writings, this is a corrected version of a collection he published in 1966 that was intended to complement the English edition of The Field of Consciousness (1964), now the third volume of this series.
