Abstract
Three profound points of agreement between Aron Gurwitsch and Husserl were enough to earn Gurwitsch the title Husserlian. First, Gurwitsch accepted Husserl’s theory of intentionality generally, and Husserl’s tripartite distinction between:
-
a)
the mental act of attention (Vorstellung/Noesis),
-
b)
the sense of the act (Sinn, Noema, object as intended),
-
c)
and the referent of the act (Gegenstand, object which is intended) [6: 173–75; 7: 124–40; 8: 227–55].
