Intentionality – Bracketing – Dingbewusstsein – Rain or urine? 

 Awee delves into reading the works of Edmund Husserl, guiding the listener through the first steps into transcendental phenomenology. Through key fragments, as well as contextualizing Husserl through his early influences and the thinkers he influenced, this episode will give you a firm starting ground to understanding the father of phenomenology. 

Sonia and Kas disagree whether Husserl is thinking warmly or falls to his math-envy, and remind themselves as well as the listener that we still limit ourselves to the canon of western philosophy.

What is First Philosophy?

Exploring the timeless ideas of history’s greatest thinkers, one lecture at a time.

Philosophers must be eternal beginners, according to Edmund Husserl. In this podcast, we invite you to begin with us, accompanied by great lectures.

Every episode dives into the rich world of phenomenology, existentialism and hermeneutics, posing and answering profound questions concerning human existence. Through these episodes, you'll get familiar with Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Sartre, Levinas, and many others.

Our first season centers around Awee Prins and his lecture series Human Conditions. To accompany you through this journey, Sonia Shvets and Kas Molenaar will provide brief interludes, insights, and introductions.
