 | Kant and Phenomenology Phenomenology, together with Marxism, pragmatism, and analytic philosophy, dominated philosophy in the twentieth century--and Edmund Husserl is usually thought to have been the first to develop the concept. His views influenced a variety of important later thinkers, such as Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty, who eventually turned phenomenology away from questions of knowledge. But here Tom Rockmore argues for a return to phenomenology's origins in epistemology, and he does so by locating its roots in the work of Immanuel Kant. Tom Rockmore is professor of philosophy and a McAnulty College Distinguished Professor at Duquesne University. He is the author of numerous books, including Kant and Idealism ; In Kant's Wake: Philosophy in the Twentieth Century ; and Hegel, Idealism, and Analytic Philosophy . |
