Abstract

The final chapter re-introduces the act-pole of the Husserlian Transcendental Ego as pure adesse. This is done first through a critical study of Dasein as a relation, not to nothingness as in Heidegger but to the actus purus essendi as it is in itself. Then it is done through the analysis of the pure concept of the asymmetrical towardness of Husserlian apophantics to formal ontology itself. Then the actual motivation necessary for proceeding forth into the new science of convergent phenomenology is given. The final section uses the metaphor of the now newly converged Transcendental Ego as special role to be played within the realm of general phenomenology as understood by Husserl.
