The stated subject of these lecture courses given by Husserlbetween
1910 and 1918is 'reason, the word for the mental activities and
accomplishments that govern knowledge, give it form and supply it
with norms.' They show their author still pursuing the course set
out in the Logical Investigations up to the end of the second
decade of the century and displaying utter consistency with stands
that he began taking on meaning, analyticity, Platonism, manifolds,
mathematics, psychologism, etc. in the 1890s. Thus, they undermine
many idees recues about the development of his thought. The
centerpiece of this work is an exploration of the realm of meaning.
Moreover, they add new dimensions to standard discussions by taking
readers back to the place where phenomenology and analytic
philosophy diverged. They show that Husserl tangled long and hard
with the very ideas that went into the making of the latter and
offer a wealth of interesting insights into sense and meaning,
theory of judgment, complete and incomplete meanings, states of
affairs, extensional logic, the relationship between logic and
mathematics, functions and arguments, propositional functions,
quantification, existential generalization, the word 'all,' number
theory, sets, modality, deductive theory, ideas that are still
under discussion today. Prepared for oral delivery in the
classroom, they are refreshingly lively and spontaneous. They are
clearer, more explicit, and readable than the books Husserl
published during his lifetime.
