Klappentext Demonstrates how phenomenology constructively addresses problems in philosophy of mind, moral psychology and philosophy of action. 'Steven Crowell's Normativity and Phenomenology in Husserl and Heidegger is a terrific book. Read individually, the chapters offer a set of sensitive and original readings of Husserl and the early Heidegger. Taken as a whole the book gives us even more; an original argument that Heidegger, building upon and criticizing the work of Husserl, went a long way towards revealing the necessary conditions on intentionality by displaying the necessary conditions on an agent whose acts are normatively responsive and whose 'being' is normatively responsible.' Mark B. Okrent, Bates College 'Crowell's work combines careful attention to the historical detail with a concern both to express the ideas involved as clearly as possible, and to demonstrate their wider significance. His discussions of phenomenology and authenticity, for example, clearly make a case for their importance for our broader understanding of intentionality, action and ethics. This book is a lucid, rigorous and ambitious piece of work that sheds light on our philosophical past and present.' Denis McManus, University of Southampton Zusammenfassung Crowell's essays outline and defend a new understanding of the philosophical importance of phenomenology! taking the work of Husserl and Heidegger as exemplary. The volume will be of great value to scholars and graduate students of Husserl and Heidegger and of twentieth-century philosophy more generally. Inhaltsverzeichnis Introduction; Part I.
