An exploration of the terrain of consciousness in the light of its
temporality from the father of phenomenology. The Phenomenology of
Internal Time-Consciousness is a translation of Edmund Husserl’s
Vorlesungen zur Phänomenologie des inneren Zeitbewußtseins. The
first part of the book was originally presented as a lecture course at
the University of Göttingen in the winter semester of 1904–1905,
while the second part is based on additional supplementary lectures
that he gave between 1905 and 1910. The pervading theme of these
essays and lectures is the temporal constitution of a pure datum of
sensation and the self-constitution of “phenomenological time”
which underlies such a constitution. Husserl identifies two categories
of temporality—retention and protention—and outlines how
temporality provides the form for perception, phantasy, imagination,
memory, and recollection. He demonstrates a distinction between cosmic
and phenomenological time and explores the relevance of
phenomenological time for the constitution of temporal objects. The
ideas Husserl developed here are explored further in his Ideas and
were pursued until the end of his philosophical career. “As an
addition to the small body of Husserl’s writings now available in
English (Ideas 1931; Meditations, 1960), this book is essential to
even a small collection of source works on contemporary philosophy.”
