Details
In 1907, the Göttingen Circle of phenomenologists was founded by Theodor Conrad – one of many students of Theodor Lipps who travelled from Munich to study with Husserl – and Alfred von Sybel – one of Husserl’s early Göttingen followers. Over the next three decades, students from around the globe flocked to study with Husserl in Göttingen and in Freiburg. Among these students were numerous women, some of whom rose to prominence within the early phenomenological movement, namely, Hedwig Martius, Edith Stein, and Gerda
The aim of this summer school is to discuss and critically assess the philosophical works of Hedwig Conrad-Martius, Edith Stein, and Gerda Walther. Texts from each of these women will be read, contextualized, compared, and contrasted. Special attention will be paid to how they built on and departed from the work of their phenomenological teachers – Husserl, Pfänder, Reinach, Scheler – and how the works of the early women of phenomenology engaged in a dialogue with each other. Topics which may be covered include: the concept of being, the realism/idealism debate, the status of the I, empathy, religious experience, and their critiques of Husserl.
Where possible, primary texts will be made available in English.
