The Massif Central as a Centre of Roman Brass Production? New Geochemical Data of the So‐Called Hemmoor Buckets
New analytical data of the so‐called Hemmoor buckets, a group of brass vessels from the Roman period of the 2nd to 3rd century ad that are widespread throughout central and eastern Europe, show considerable similarities with the polymetallic Cévennes ore deposits in south‐eastern France in terms of their geochemical characteristics and lead isotope ratios. The consistency of the analytical data collected in this work with those of brass ingots fr…
Husserlian cognitive phenomenology
The term “cognitive phenomenology” may be understood as referring to the idea that there is something it is like to entertain thoughts. One of the main problems in the debates on cognitive phenomenology is the question of how it should be construed, for instance in terms of being in a particular phenomenal state. In order to give a concise idea of what cognitive phenomenology is, I elicit the help of the philosophical doctrine of phenomenology of…
Scheler’s phenomenological reduction
On Max Scheler’s account, the purpose of the phenomenological reduction of an experience is to reveal the a priori or essential contents that are constitutive for that experience. By contrast to Husserl, Scheler does not hold that the reduction reveals the immanent contents of consciousness, but objective and mind-independent sense-structures. In this paper, I aim to give a systematic account of these claims by interpreting the phenomenological r…
States of affairs between logic and ontology
In the phenomenological tradition, a state of affairs is described as the objectual correlate of an act of judgement. This understanding of states of affairs is ambivalent in regards to its logical and ontological implications. I explore this ambivalence in terms of the following dialectic: states of affairs are what make our judgements true. But they do so because we can form true judgments that posit them. According to the approach of Alexander…
Ingarden’s Theory of Ideas
In the work of Roman Ingarden, ideas are supra-personal items of knowledge, the content of which maps, in a specific way, the ontological structure of ideal and real objects falling under them. This paper develops a systematic account of Ingarden’s theory of ideas. The account specifies, firstly, the structure of the content of ideas, and accordingly the different kinds of ideas corresponding to different kinds of objects. Secondly, the account d…
Husserl, Richir, and the Indeterminacy of Meaning
According to Belgian phenomenologist Marc Richir, a central shortcoming of Husserlian phenomenology lies in its overly static and determinate conception of how meaning is constituted in thinking and experience. Husserl, Richir argues, envisions experience and thought as being thoroughly governed by stable “eidetic structures,” constitutive of what he calls “symbolic institution.” Against this image, Richir proposes a phenomenology that foreground…
The (Personal) Experience of Values – Scheler and Hildebrand
There are several problems in conceiving of value experience in early phenomenology. What exactly does the experience of a value consist in? How are we to determine the morality of an action that is based on a value which is, as a reality in and of itself, imposed on us from without? How is the experience of values related to the person and in what way can an intuitive value response be reconciled with the application of acquired, personal value …
Gertrud Kuznitzky and Edith Stein on (non)conceptual experience
This article considers a largely overlooked phenomenological account of nonconceptual experience that turns on experience having a sense that is unique to intuition, and which can be invoked to explain how we come to view what we experience in objective terms without referring to ready‐made concepts. The two early phenomenologists Edith Stein and Gertrud Kuznitzky are discussed as having elaborated two distinct, yet related, versions of this intu…
A Phenomenological Actus Essendi? Hedwig Conrad-Martius and Edith Stein on Finite Existence
In later Edith Stein and Hedwig Conrad-Martius, finite existence appears to be necessarily intertwined with infinite being. In response to this observation, this paper puts particular focus on the experience of finite being in order to address the specifically phenomenological (i.e., experiential) aspects of Stein’s and Conrad-Martius’ metaphysics. As a consequence, instead of pointing to eternal or infinite being, finite experience is understood…
How Does the Future Appear in Spite of the Present? Towards an “Empty Teleology” of Time
This article takes a phenomenological approach to thinking about ways in which the future comes to pass without being derived from the present, i.e. without being based on our current and past objective engagements. In the first part, I look at Husserl’s idea of “protention” in order to discuss how phenomenology has conceptualized the indeterminacy of the present moment. In the second part, the Heideggerian notion of “projection” is discussed as …
Denkende Körper
Descartes gilt als einer der einflussreichsten Vertreter der metaphysischen Scheidung des Menschen in Körper und Seele. Entgegen dieser Annahme entdeckt Daniel Neumann in Descartes' Frühwerk einen "denkenden Körper“, in welchem die Mechanik des Körpers und die Denkprozesse des Verstandes unzertrennlich sind. Dieser Befund bildet die Grundlage für eine Neubetrachtung der Rezeptionsgeschichte der cartesianischen Philosophie von ca. 1650 bis 1750 in…
“Being tied to experience”
In this text, Heidegger's notion of the event is understood as a rupture on an ontological level. From this follows the aporia of whether the event concerns the coming about of being itself, or of beings. To address the ontological as well as the ontic aspect of the event, the article suggests to understand the event in a subjective framework, in line with transcendental conditions of experience, specifically as a "receptivity" to the event. The …
Passivity or Receptivity
This article reconsiders a critique of Jean-Luc Nancy’s and Giorgio Agamben’s political philosophies as passive and unpractical. The article argues that in both cases, the political philosophy is motivated by the concept of “withdrawal of law,” as outline
Recursivity and Contingency
In Recursivity and Contingency, Yuk Hui sets out to accomplish two things: firstly, to conduct a historical survey, beginning with Kant's Critique of Judgement, of how philosophy envisioned nature and living beings as autonomous systems interacting with their environment in complex ways. Fundamentally, Hui understands this to be a breaking away from the linear causality of mechanistic thought, inherited from 17th century Rationalism, to a circula…
Preliminary Report on the first season of fieldwork in Berettyóújfalu-Szilhalom
This study aims to present the first results of fieldwork conducted by the teams of the Römisch-Germanische Kommission (Frankfurt am Main) and the Institute of Archaeological Sciences of Eötvös Loránd University (Budapest) in the scope of a joint project. The investigated tell site, Berettyóújfalu-Szilhalom is well known by prehistoric archaeology due to earlier excavations. The main goals of the project were to gain a better understanding of Lat…
Hort und Raum
The essays in this volume, which are conducted across a broad geographical range, reveal the great potential of studying Bronze Age hoard sites. This volume provides a glimpse into current research on Bronze Age hoard sites between the Baltic Sea and Carpathian Basin while also opening up new perspectives on a phenomenon often regarded as fully researched.
