Phenomenology

show how the various key concepts of Kant's philosophy paved the way for phenomenological thinking. This includes the Copernican turn, the antinomies and Kant's denial of dogmatic metaphysics. I will argue that Kant effectively paved the way for phenomenology by claiming that the phenomenal realm is all that we can really know anything about. The paper will follow this notion by highlighting some of the more problematic notions in Kantian philosophy. I will mostly be dealing with the severe…

the what and the how of the experience. Phenomenological research does not try to analyze or explain the essence of the experience, but focuses on providing a complete picture to the reader (Moustakas, 1994). Phenomenology also moves away from only looking for empirical…

memorable experience for the people. It should be recognised through its qualities based on our senses: sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch where they can interact and engage with the space. By studying the human behaviour and the essence in phenomenology we could change the way we perceive, design architecture and rethink ways it could benefit society today. As architects, it is their role to undertake the challenge to think of innovative ways within their design incorporating our sensory…

Phenomenology of Architecture, as hinted by Pallasmaa in his earlier quote, are practiced by several famous architects including, Herzog & De Meuron and Steven Holl. Their architecture designs are created based of the society around it; the forms and spaces hold functions which are accommodated to the populations that dwell among its walls. Designs that practice the Phenomenology of Architecture do not need to heed the corruption of time…

the concept of which, albeit difficult to grasp is made possible through the interpretations of those who populate it. It is even possible to say that there are as many places as people in a space. This concept is central to the discourse of Phenomenology, a school of thought that first developed around the end of the 19th century but gained significant traction in the years of the 20th century. It was first conceived as a ‘return to things’, a critical response and reaction to centuries of…

There are multiple interpretations given to the fourth chapter, Self-Consciousness, of Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit. Alexandre Kojève initiated a phenomenon that isolates the fourth chapter being an essay in itself discussing anthropology or social philosophy (Magrì 2016; Pippin 2010). These lectures given by Kojève influenced subsequent thinkers like Merleau-Ponty and Sartre (Schmidt 1979). I am rejecting this kind of reading. This is a radical shift of Hegel’s reading from an…

While Plato claimed that there was a legitimate ontological and epistemological distinction between appearances and the mind-independent world, Husserl 's phenomenology conflates appearances and reality.43 Although their views of what constitutes reality differ, Phenomenology seems committed to the direct realist, anti-representationalist view that reality appears to us.44 This is made most notable by Husserl 's anti-Kantian view that things themselves are not…

The type of research conducted by Fackler et al. (2015), is stated to be phenomenology with the goal of understanding how nurses perceive power within their professional roles.…

qualitative research studies, but the six most common types of qualitative research studies are phenomenology, ethnography, grounded theory, historical, case studies and action research. The following explains the top six qualitative research studies: • Phenomenology studies examine human experiences through the descriptions that are provided by the people involved (Nieswiadomy, 2012). In phenomenology studies, researchers must use bracketing to prevent biasing their research observation and a…
