La tentative de Husserl de fonder la philosophie comme " science rigoureuse " ainsi que certains principes de sa phenomenologie ont ete remis en question par plusieurs de ses successeurs. La premiere partie du livre qui est consacree a la question fondamentale de l'Etre presente au moyen d'une comparaison hermeneutique differentes relectures de la methode husserlienne et de l'ontologie heideggerienne, relectures qui ont contribue aux " tournants " essentiels de la philosophie phenomenologique. L...
The phenomenology of Edmund Husserl is being analyzed in regard to its ontological implications. It is demonstrated that Husserl's method of reduction directly leads to an ontological idealism for which there is no epistemological justification. An alternative to this idealistic misunderstanding of the phenomenological approach is being developed in applying Heidegger's existential analysis to questions of epistemology and transcendental philosophy. It is thus shown that phenomenology may be est...
This project examines the cultural and political differences between Europe and America and contends that Britain's 'special relationship' with America, although well-intentioned, continues to undermine greater European cooperation and integration - a problem for Europe which can only be solved if and when a number of the suggestions made in this title are not merely considered, but democratically implemented.

by William Crookes
Published in 1874, this collection of reports by the chemist and scientific journalist Sir William Crookes (1832-1919) describes his controversial research into psychic forces.

D. Home, Kate Fox and Florence Cook. This fascinating work describes Crookes' witnessing of the movement of bodi...
Die Autorin geht in der Analyse des grundlegenden Problems der aristotelischen Metaphysik, der Substanztheorie, neue Wege. Sie verwendet zusatzlich zu den ublichen ontologischen Relationen wie den vier Kausalitaten causa materialis, causa formalis, causa efficiens und causa finalis, und der Inharenz, also der Substanz-Akzidens Beziehung, auch die Teil-Ganzes-Relation, die man seit Stanislaw Lesniewski 'Mereologie' nennt. Diese Teil-Ganzes-Beziehung spielt in der aristotelischen Metaphysik eine g...
Kants Reflexion uber die "Notwendigkeit" ist von entscheidender Wichtigkeit innerhalb der radikalen Transformation der Metaphysik des XVIII. Jahrhunderts. Es ist andererseits sehr schwer, seine vorkritischen Werke uberhaupt zu verstehen und die Idee einer neuen Systematik der Philosophie als Kritik der reinen Vernunft nachzuvollziehen, wenn man die Auseinandersetzung Kants mit den Begriffen der Moeglichkeit, Wirklichkeit und Notwendigkeit (und damit mit den Grundlagen der klassischen Ontologie s...
