Edmund Husserl was the principal founder of phenomenology—and thus one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century. He has made important contributions to almost all areas of philosophy and anticipated central ideas of its neighboring disciplines such as linguistics, sociology and cognitive psychology.

11. Phenomenology
● is a study of the structures of consciousness
Bracketing the objects outside of
consciousness itself
● So that one can proceed to reflect on the
systematically describe the contents of the
conscious mind in terms of their essential
structures.
12. Phenomenological Epoche
● First have to bracket ( or suspend) our natural
attitude.
Scientific, philosophical, cultural, and everyday assumption
-natural attitude masks the true nature of reality
● It means suspending the truth, claims of our everyday
cognitive process
13. Natural attitude
● This is our prejudices, preconceived notions,
biases, clear fixed precise unquestioned
explicit knowledge of the object.
● Only phenomena (the things themselves)
● By suspension = setting aside
14. For example
What is our natural attitude?
● A teacher
● A couple ( Filipina and foreigner )
● Our biases and judgement on the motion of love is
a many splendored thing.
● We fail to see the goodness, the beauty, and the
abundance of a person and thing (Dy, 1986)
15. Phenomenological eidetic reduction (seeing)
● Is the reduction of phenomenological
experience to pure essence.
● It is about analyzing essence: what makes
the thing you’re contemplating what it is
17. How can we arrive at the essence?
● Epoche
Bracket our biases and judgement
● Eidetic reduction
Extract the essence by beginning to observe
and experience
18. How can we arrive at the essence? (eidetic reduction)
Question
● Can I change their age?
● Their sex?
● Their race?
● Their family background?
● Their social status
19. How can we arrive at the essence? (eidetic reduction)
● A man and a woman relationship tomorrow
man and man relationship
● A couple of the same age then tomorrow
relationship between an 18 year old man
with 90 year old woman
What we cannot change?
This become the pure essence of love
20. Phenomenological transcendental reduction
● Is the reduction of the object to the very
activity itself of the
● Act of intending – experience of being conscious of
something
● Intended object –one is conscious
consciousness.
21. We now become
conscious of the
subject, the “I”
who must decide
on the validity of
the object in
experience
22. Eidetic reduction
• We see essence of love
Transcendental reduction
• We reduce the meaning
of love to our very
experience of it

Editor's Notes
positivist orientation - Positivism is a belief that we should not go beyond the boundaries of what can be observed.
It means impossible to solve
He merged the insight
That lies before all formal thinking
he continued to write extensively
Radical - a person who advocates thorough or complete political or social reform
he continued to write extensively
He referred to himself at the end of his life as a “true beginner”
This method incorporates on Phenomenological and eidetic reduction
1. Epoché is suspension of judgment
2. By putting aside
3. Because
Cognitive process allow us to create cultures, societies, friends and occupations, many important aspects of human life.
Because in phenomenological viewing, we are not permitted any scientific or philosophical hypothesis
in the manner of their being given to us.
We not denying or affirming the phenomena were just putting or set aside those preconceived ideas in order to get a new ideas
Phenomena something that is observed to occur or to exist.
Eidetic - eidos, meaning "form.“
Reduce nga kasinatian ngadto sa lunsay nga esensya
We bracket those biases and for example love reduce the object love to the PL to live what is our experience of life
We can extract the essence of love
We can change all of these
We can change all of these
This become the pure essence of love
Consciousness is involves both
we pay attention to our feeling our thinking, our willingness and other
We reduce this meaning of love to our very experience of it
It says about ourselves our experience. we will not rely on others but on how the things appears to you to me. Because edmund husserl is base on the self. We just rely on ourselves. Yes others opinion is correct but we must to set aside and rely to our experience. We must considering our experience not the others and we see the meaning of this because we experience it.
