Abstract
The philosophical tradition that attempts to describe the world and the way we experience it without relying on abstract theories is called phenomenology. The term took on new significance with German philosopher Edmund Husserl whose work focused on human subjectivity, the role of intention in consciousness, and the significance of noema and lebenswelt. Husserl's most famous student, the German philosopher Martin Heidegger, rejected the notion of a detached mind that can look at the world objectively. It was his contention that we are like the physical objects around us, yet we have a mind that causes us to relate to the world in a very different way. If we want to understand our encounter with the world, we first have to understand our engagements in it, maintaining an attitude of determination and authenticity
