Husserl’s Transcendental Phenomenology

In this book Andrea Staiti unearths and examines the deep theoretical links between Husserl's phenomenology and the philosophical debates of his time, showing how his thought developed in response to the conflicting demands of Neo-Kantianism and life-philosophy. Drawing on the work of thinkers including Heinrich Rickert, Wilhelm Dilthey and Georg Simmel, as well as Husserl's writings on the natural and human sciences that are not available in English translation, Staiti illuminates a crucial chapter in the history of twentieth-century philosophy and enriches our understanding of Husserl's thought. His book will interest scholars and students of Husserl, phenomenology, and twentieth-century philosophy more generally.

- Offers an interpretation of Husserl which engages with lesser-known thinkers of his time, appealing to those pursuing an understanding of phenomenology which goes beyond standard presentations

- Discusses key texts that are not available in English translation, providing Anglophone readers the opportunity to learn about these crucial philosophical works for the first time

- Clarifies fundamental notions in transcendental phenomenology in accessible terms, allowing readers familiar with Kant's transcendental philosophy to connect Husserl's thought to the Kantian tradition
