PHIL 19.02 Transcendental Philosophy in Husserl and Heidegger

Transcendental philosophy seeks to uncover conditions for the possibility of experience. This course will study the ways in which Husserl and Heidegger develop and refine Kant’s transcendental project in the course of their phenomenological investigations, in part by broadening the range of human experience that is subject to philosophical scrutiny. Time will be one focus of the course, as we seek to reconstruct Heidegger’s claim that different conceptions of time yield different understandings of what it is to be.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
