Phenomenology

Kinkaid, Eden; Hepach, Maximilian Gregor

Abstract

Phenomenology is a diverse philosophical tradition concerned with perception, the nature of being and subjectivity, the experience of sense and meaning, and the entanglements between subjectivity, the body, world, space, and time. As a method, phenomenology seeks to ground knowledge of the world in presuppositionless descriptions of experience. These descriptions are not merely subjective; phenomenologists seek to uncover general principles governing experience, knowledge, and the structure of worlds.
