Franz Brentano is one of the founding fathers of twentieth century
philosophy, celebrated for introducing the concept of
intentionality to philosophy as well as making significant
contributions to ethics and logic. His work exerted great influence
on major philosophers such as Edmund Husserl, but also philosophers
travelling in the opposite direction, such Gottlob Frege. He
counted Sigmund Freud amongst his students and Freud expressed
great admiration for his teacher in several letters. Psychology
from an Empirical Standpoint is Brentano's most important and
brilliant work. It helped to establish psychology as a scientific
discipline, but did so in a highly original and distinctive manner
by arguing for a form of introspectionism. Brentano argued that
consciousness is always unified and that the hallmark of the mind
is that one's thoughts are always directed towards something - his
famous theory of 'intentionality' - arguments that have deep
implications not just for philosophy but psychology, cognitive
science and consciousness studies. With a new foreword by Tim
Crane.
