In this new translation of 5 lectures delivered in 1907 at the University of Göttingen, Husserl lays out the philosophical problem of knowledge, indicates the requirements for its solution & for the 1st time introduces the phenomenological method of reduction. For those interested in the genesis & development of phenomenology, this text affords a unique glimpse into the epistemological motivation of his work, his concept of intentionality & the formation of central phenomenological concepts that will later go by the names of `transcendental consciousness', the 'noema' etc. As a teaching text, it's ideal. It's brief, it's unencumbered by the technical terminology of his later work, it bears a clear connection to the problem of knowledge as formulated in the Cartesian tradition & it's accompanied by a translator's introduction that clearly spells out the structure, argument & movement of the text.
