Thing and Space
Résumé
Presents a translation of Husserl's "Thing-lectures" (Dingvorlesung) of 1907. The lectures deal with the constitution of the thing as a res extensa, an extended spatial structure filled with sensuous qualities and not yet with substantial or causal properties. They present an example of the application of this idea to a concrete field of research.

Thing and Space by Edmund Husserl
This is a translation of Edmund HusserI's lecture course from the Summer semester 1907 at the University of Gottingen. The German original was pub- lished posthumously in 1973 as Volume XVI of Husserliana, Husserl's opera omnia. The translation is complete, including both the main text and the supplementary texts (as Husserliana volumes are usually organized), except for the critical apparatus which provides variant readings. The announced title of the lecture course was Main parts of the phenome- nology and critique of reason. The course began with five, relatively inde- pendent, introductory lectures. These were published on their own in 1947, bearing the title The idea ojphenomenology.l The Five Lectures comprise a general orientation by proposing the method to be employed in the subsequent working out of the actual problems (viz., the method of phenomenological reduction) and by clarifying, at least provisionally, some technical terms that will be used in the labor the subsequent lectures will carry out. The present volume, then, presents that labor, i.e., the method in action and the results attained. As such, this text dispels the abstract impression which could not help but cling to the first five lectures taken in isolation. Accord- ingly, we are here given genuine introductory lectures, i.e., an introduction to phenomenology in the genuine phenomenological sense of engaging in the work of phenomenology, going to the matters at issue themselves, rather than remaining aloof from them in abstract considerations of standpoint and approach.Edmund Husserl was born in Moravia in 1859 and studied mathematics and physical sciences in Vienna and Berlin. In 1884, he made the decision to devote his life to philosophy. Until his retirement in 1928, he held professorships at the universities of Halle, Gottingen, and Freiburg. In 1938, he passed away. Experience and Judgment, also published by Northwestern University Press, is one of his many published works.
