1. PHENOMENOLOGY A brief introduction

2. LEARNING OUTCOMES On understanding the difference between ‘beings’ and ‘being’ Develop an understanding of the existential phenomenological framework Identify the purpose and possible issues in conducting research using this method TODAY YOU WILL:

3. ONTOLOGY EPISTEMOLOGY METHODOLOGY Concerned with the nature of reality. Concerned with the relation between the 'knower’ and the ‘known’ Concerned with how the study is conducted, i.e., the various techniques used for investigation. RESEARCH Do you remember these keywords?

4. Husserl’s Phenomenology Aiming to construct a new foundation for knowledge. ORIENTATION AIM PROCESS Husserl’s early background was in mathematics, with a PhD in the subject. Like all mathematicians he too was a Platonist who was greatly influenced by the Cartesian tradition. Husserl aimed to create a presupposition-less foundation to human knowledge, i.e., a science of sciences. Looking into oneself and after finding an indubitable foundation for that and for the contents of your mind to move from there to generating the external world

5. CENTRAL ASSUMPTION Self is Self-Evident and comes first, i.e., the knower comes before the known. Knowledge of eternal essences forms the foundation of other elements of knowledge SELF IMPLIES

6. PHENOMENOLOGY VS. EMPIRICISM The talk about ‘intuition’ Elaborating on the ‘how’ as opposed to ‘what’ Husserl used the term “INTUITION” but not traditionally This is because... We perceive th e word ‘intuition’ as poorly defined/demarcated, which may be true in some cases.

7. PHENOMENOLOGY VS. EMPIRICISM INTUITION HUSSERL VS. HUME OBSERVATION This is because... both are ultimately based on our own experience s triking similarity

8. Maintain Skepticism What to think?

9. INTENTIONALITY the facts of mental life of our psychic life are irreducible Fundamentally cultural concern; dissatisfaction with scientis m. WHY? By creating ‘ Epoches ’ and performing phenomenological reductions. HOW ? Essence

10. PHENOMENOLOGICAL STATEMENT What does phenomenology generate This is because... Husserl is looking for is absolute certainty without presuppositions A priori statements about being human

11. REDUCTION TRUTHS EXPRESSION ISSUES Read the following summaries to help you identify what structure the story follows. It requires looking directly into the self and since the self constructs and projects the world, we're going to cogitate ourselves and bootstrap ourselves into some permanent reality But there may be infinite number of predicates. How to find out what is the most essential predicates for creating essences Limits of language
