The reduction

John Drummond

pp. 46-59

Husserl has said in both editions of LU that acts with a common matter intend the same objectivity. In speaking of this intentional objectivity, Husserl tells us, we are not concerned with the sense in which we speak of its "being;" we are unconcerned, that is, with whether the intentional object is real or ideal, actual (wahrhaft), possible or impossible (LU II/1, 427 [II, 587]). It is this indifference to the mode of the object's existence which becomes prominent in Husserl's later theory of the phenomenological reduction.
