Episode notes
Phenomenology's Aim
- Husserl's phenomenology aims to restore contact epistemology, getting back to the things themselves.
- This involves reflective attention on our contact with the world, not mere introspection.
Heidegger's Critique
- Heidegger critiques Husserl for not fully achieving contact, lacking participatory knowing.
- Heidegger emphasizes the existential mode of being, where our being is in question.
Being in Question
- We are beings whose being is in question, unlike other entities with fixed identities.
- This questioning connects our self-knowledge to ontology, the study of being.
