Husserlian Phenomenology in the Light of Microphenomenology

August 10, 2020 Natalie Depraz 5 citations

This chapter traces the lineage of Husserl's transcendental epoché into the contemporary discipline of microphenomenology, which aims to describe the subject's singular, real-time lived experience with fine-grained precision. The author examines what microphenomenology borrows from Husserlian phenomenology and how it establishes its difference, particularly through the prefix "micro." The chapter then revisits the historical relationship between phenomenology and introspective psychologies (Titchener, Külpe), using the example of attention to demonstrate their intimate bond. Finally, the author relates the microphenomenological project to Varela's research program on the naturalization of phenomenology.

Trauma and Phenomenology

Eidos. A Journal for Philosophy of Culture February 4, 2020 Natalie Depraz 4 citations

Trauma is often understood as a shock that ruptures experience, but this inquiry tests that model by examining the inner structures of attention (as open awaiting) and emotion (as perduring resonance). Integrating microphenomenological subjective reports with neuro and physiological data, the work aims to renew understanding of the blank lived experience of trauma and the passive preconscious dynamics of traumatism, and to generate possible therapeutic effects.
