Phenomenology in the United States is in a state of ferment and
change. Not all the changes are happy ones, however, for some of
the most prominent philosophers of the first generation of
phenomenologists have died: in 1959 Alfred Schutz, and within the
past two years John \Vild, Dorion Cairns, and Aron Gur witsch.
These thinkers, though often confronting a hostile intel lectual
climate, were nevertheless persistent and profoundly
influential-through their own works, and through their students.
The two sources associated with their names, The Graduate Faculty
of The New School for Social Research, and the circle around John
Wild first at Harvard and later at Northwestern and Yale, produced
a sizable portion of the now second gener ation American
phenomenological philosophers. In a way, it was the very hostility
of the American philo sophical milieu which became an important
factor in the ferment now taking place. Although the older, first
generation phenome nologists were deeply conversant with other
philosophical move ments here and abroad, their efforts at
meaningful dialogue were largely ignored. Determined not to remain
isolated from the dominant currents of Anglo-American philosophy in
par ticular, the second generation opened the way to a dialogue
with analytic philosophers, especially through the efforts of the
Society for Phenomenology and Existential Philosophy, led by 2
INTRODUCTION such men as James M. Edie and Hubert Dreyfus and, in
other respects, Herbert Spiegelberg and Maurice Natanson."
