Christian Ferencz-Flatz: Husserls Idee einer “Phí¤nomenologie der Okkasionalití¤t”, in: Philosophisches Jahrbuch 118 (2011) 1.
The article addresses Edmund Husserl’s attempts, in several of his later notations, to sketch out the program of a phenomenology of “˜occasionality’, understood as a “˜phenomenology of the aesthetic world’. Husserl sees this as the subjective correlative analysis to an “˜ontology of the aesthetic world’, dealing with the ideal structures of the “˜world in itself’. To this extent, we will follow the evolution of a closely related theme in Husserl’s philosophy, across the period between his Logical Investigations (1900/1) and the Formal and Transcendental Logic (1927), namely the question of occasional expressions, judgements and truths. Thus we will try to show how Husserl is led from questioning a particular form of expressions and meanings to issues concerning situational experience and the occasional apparitions of the world.
