Ep. 53: What is Phenomenology? (Part II)

In this episode, Giuseppe and Anthony continue their conversation on the "sub-method" of philosophy known as phenomenology: What can descriptive analysis of basic experiences tell us about the fundamental structures of consciousness? What assumptions do we typically make but take for granted in everyday experience? Is phenomenology a kind of metaphysics, epistemology, both, or neither? What is the difference between "having an body" and "being embodied?" How is Heidegger's phenomenology of "Being" (which might be called ontological, existential, or hermeneutic) distinct from Husserl's phenomenology? Why is Anthony so scarred when it comes to talking about Heidegger? Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/publicphilosophyproject. For questions or suggestions: publicphilproject@gmail.com
