This volume contains sOOeen essays written by his students and
colleagues in honor of Maurice Natanson. The essays explore some of
the diverse themes Professor Natanson has pursued through forty
years of teaching and philosophizing in the tradition of
existential phenomenology. Because it also includes a lengthy
biographical and philosophical interview where one can find an
absorbing account of Natanson's Lebens/au/in his own words, there
is no need to detail that polypragmatic career here. Suffice to say
that even passing acquaintance with the man and the work will
reveal that Edmund Husserl's self-description holds equally of his
distinguished interpreter: "I seek not to instruct but only to
lead, to point out and describe what I see. I claim no other right
than that of speaking according to my best lights, principally
before myself but in the same manner also before others, as one who
has lived in all its seriousness the fate of a philosophical
existence. "l For Natanson, as the diversity of the contributions
to this volume attest, such seriousness involves something other
than that narrow technical vision for which a topic is the more
philosophical the less it has to do with anything else. In
Natanson's pages-to say nothing of his teaching and
conversation-there are no men of straw but living, breathing human
beings; with hirn philosophy's tentacles are ubiquitous.
