The paper deals with what could be seen as „a new origin“ (rather as a comeback) of the subjectivity in contemporary French philosophy. The author believes, that a piece of this „different“ subjectivity appears already with Husserl; it is something irreducible to the idealistic subject matter in transcendental egology, something similar to feeling, which endures… Read more

The author tries to outline the new possibilities the phenomenology offers for considerations of a specific type of phenomenality which in some respects goes be yond the rules of phenomenalization as defined by Husserl in connection with „the principle of principles“ as well as exploring the horizon, i.e. the constitutive condition of any giving. While the… Read more

In this paper, I have twofold aim: First I wish to show to what extent the Husserlian Theory of Intersubjectivity can be relevant for contemporary empirical research and for ancestral wisdom traditions, both in their experiences and in their conceptual tools; and secondly I intended to rely on some empirical results and experiential mystical/practical reports in… Read more

I wish to come back to the „failed dialogue“ between Changeux and Ricœur in order to understand better what is the difficulty in the relation between neurosciences and phenomenology. Is this apparent difficulty real, and in that case, should it be conside- red insurmountable? Long before there was talk of „cognitive neurosciences“, the Voluntary and the… Read more

Or is the time to be referred to as the Heideggerian ek-statikon, excluding any intentionality, which is an inseparable part of Husserlian subject? In unveiling the time the author’… Read more

A twofold question is asked about the appearing as such; it is this… Read more

If in the visual mode we speak about sparkling, in the experience of a touching we should speak about stroking. These forms of experience refer to a slight trembling, that disappears without clenching our fists. A decision not to possess, not to keep in the hands, not to use one’s own power is a reflection of a subtle aesthetics of a tacit respect to things. We… Read more

The paper deals with those current Sartrean researches, which are concerned with Sartre’s early phenomenological writings. The researchers involved see the latter as important as Sartre’s later fundamental works. Their interpretations go beyond the view traditional of those works. Beside Sartre as a philosopher of subjectivity they try to emphasize the „other“… Read more
