Title: Phantasy, Image Consciousness, and Memory (1898-1925) (Edmund Husserl Collected Works)
First published: December 2, 2005
Description: What follows is a translation of Phantasie, Bildbewusstsein, 1 Erinnerung (1898–1925), Volume XXIII in the Husserliana series, the critical edition of the works of Edmund Husserl. Husserliana XXIII brings together a broad range of posthumous texts on p- ception, phantasy, image consciousness, memory, time, and a variety of related topics. They were written during a period of enormous productivity and pivotal development in Husserl’s philosophical life, reaching from the years immediately preceding the publication of the Logical Investigations (1900–1901) almost to the time of his reti- ment in 1928. As Eduard Marbach, the editor of Husserliana XXIII points out, Husserl formulated grand plans early in the last century for the s- tematic development and presentation of his thought, particularly of the phenomenology of reason. Part of this project would consist of 2 a “ ‘very comprehensive work on perception, phantasy, and time. ’ ” Husserl never in fact realized his idea of exploring these topics c- lectively in a single work, but he did offer courses and write sketches touching on all of them. A selection of these materials, mainly from the ?rst decade of the last century and devoted to time consciousness, 3 was published in 1928 in Husserl’s Jahrbuch with a brief foreword 1 Edmund Husserl, Phantasie, Bildbewusstsein, Erinnerung.
