Notes

  1. In his first approach to this question in Chap. 5, Geniusas discloses two features intrinsic to the horizon as a philosophical notion: it is an implicit system of references, and it is a horizon of validity (see p. 28).

  2. On this subject see Rabanaque (2003), where the noema’s temporal horizonality is discussed in the context of hyletic constitution. Incidentally, “noematic intentionality” (p. 33) is itself a somewhat puzzling issue, as Marbach (1992) shows.

  3. Wherein” (worin) appears as a subheading: “Welt als worin alles Seiende (für mich Seinsgewisse) inexistiert” (Hua XXXIX, p. 73), further in Hua XV, pp. 325, 353, 596, 656 (related to the body), p. 684 (in a marginal note). “Wherefrom” (assuming that it renders the German “woher”) is not documented in Hua XXXIX.
