The Viewpoint Of Time In Husserl’s Phenomenology

The Viewpoint of Time in Husserl’s Phenomenology lain in an important positionis a key link to understand the transformation of his thoughts on consciousnessconstruction from static to genetic (from static phenomenology to geneticphenomenology). He had thought on the issue of time deeply and meticulouslythroughout his life. The essay is argued to elaborate his phenomenology of theconsciousness of internal time in his early time, to clarify its development and toevaluate it.A series of representative view of time before Husserl are discussed in ChapterOne. Then the phenomenological premise---to suspend the objective time, as wellas the critique of both Brentano’s and Minong’s view of time, is being discussed inChapter Two, paving the way to introduce Husserl’s phenomenologicalconsciousness of internal time in the following chapter. Chapter Three keynotes theanalysis of the main part of his phenomenological view of time from the threefoldhorizons, namely original impression, retention and protention constructed fromindividual objects of time. I play great emphasis on the final stage of timeconsciousness’ structure---structure concerning absolute consciousness stream in thelast chapter, and solve problem with regard to "infinite regress" in theconstruction process of absolute consciousness stream, so as to set forth therelationship between the proto-consciousness and post-reflection.
