PHILOSOPHY

Topic :  Bracketing

Lecture - 17

SYNOPSIS: The concept of phenomenological method will be discussed in detail by comparing it with the Cartesian method. We will also see how Husserl conceives phenomenology as a presuppositionless philosophy and how he conceives the essences that are directly given to the consciousness and immanent to it as the fundamental data of knowledge. We will also examine the process of bracketing. We will see that in bracketing, we do not change anything in the world. It is only an attitude we adopt towards the world.
