What is the “crisis” of the European sciences which Husserl spoke of at the end of his life? What is its complex relation with the rise and fall of modern philosophy and its discovery of the constitutive role of subjectivity? What does Husserl actually mean by “science” and in what sense is he allowed to talk of “European” sciences? Finally, what is the role of phenomenology with respect to such crisis? In this seminar, we will attempt to answer these questions by reading in detail some selected passages from Husserl’s later works.
