The last work of Edmund Husserl

Aron Gurwitsch

pp. 447-502

In 1936 Husserl published the first of an intended series of articles which were to deal with the general intellectual crisis of our time, especially the crisis of the sciences, and with transcendental phenomenology as a way, the only way, to overcome that crisis.2 The series would have become the principal document of the last phase of Husserl's phenomenology and would have provided the center of reference of his other writings pertaining to that phase: viz., ">Formale und transzendentale Logik (1929) and Erfahrung und Urteil (edited by L. Landgrebe and published in 1939, after Husserl's death; reissued in 1954). Because of his final illness, Husserl had to discontinue all work after August 1937, so that the planned series was never completed, the article of 1936 having thus far been the only one to appear in print.
