With a new foreword by Dermot Moran 'the work here presented seeks
to found a new science - though, indeed, the whole course of
philosophical development since Descartes has been preparing the
way for it - a science covering a new field of experience,
exclusively its own, that of "Transcendental Subjectivity"' -
Edmund Husserl, from the author's preface to the English Edition
Widely regarded as the principal founder of phenomenology, one of
the most important movements in twentieth century philosophy,
Edmund Husserl's Ideas is one of his most important works and a
classic of twentieth century thought. This Routledge Classics
edition of the original translation by W.R. Boyce Gibson includes
the introduction to the English edition written by Husserl himself
in 1931. Husserl's early thought conceived of phenomenology - the
general study of what appears to conscious experience - in a
relatively narrow way, mainly in relation to problems in logic and
the theory of knowledge. The publication of Ideas in 1913 witnessed
a significant and controversial widening of Husserl's thought,
changing the course of phenomenology decisively. Husserl argued
that phenomenology was the study of the very nature of what it is
to think, "the science of the essence of consciousness" itself.
Husserl's arguments ignited a heated debate regarding the nature of
consciousness and experience that has endured throughout the
twentieth and continues in the present day. No understanding of
twentieth century philosophy is complete without some understanding
of Husserl, and his work influenced some of the great philosophers
of the twentieth century, such as Martin Heidegger and Jean-Paul
Sartre.
