24Metaphysics, Metontology, and the End of Being and TimePhilosophy and Phenomenological Research 60 (2): 307-331. 2000.In 1928 Heidegger argued that the transcendental philosophy he had pursued in Being and Time needed to be completed by what he called “metontology.” This paper analyzes what this notion amounts to. Far from being merely a curiosity of Heidegger scholarship, the place occupied by “metontology” opens onto a general issue concerning the relation between transcendental philosophy and metaphysics, and also between both of these and naturalistic empiricism. I pursue these issues in terms of an ambigui…Read more

33Logische Untersuchungen Ergänzungsband Erster Teil (review)Review of Metaphysics 57 (2): 413-414. 2003.By the summer of 1913, Husserl had already completed revisions of the Prolegomena to Pure Logic and the first five Investigations for a new edition of his Logical Investigations. The intervening years had seen considerable development in Husserl’s thought, so he attempted to compromise between a merely mechanical reproduction of the original edition and a complete rewriting from the newly attained standpoint of his transcendental phenomenology. The compromise worked fairly well until Husserl cam…Read more

78Husserl, Derrida, and the Phenenology of ExpressionPhilosophy Today 40 (1): 61-70. 1996.This article examines the presuppositions underlying Derrida's criticisms of Husserl's theory of expression, and philosophy of language generally. I argue that Derrida's claim that indication (and so the sign-function) is present at the heart of phenomenological "expression" is based on an unwarranted substitution of a Hegelian structure of reflection for Husserl's own phenomenological concept of reflection and evidence. I then criticize a different sort of unclarity in Husserl's analysis of the…Read more

7Husserl, Heidegger, and the Space of Meaning: Paths Toward Trancendental PhenomenologyNorthwestern University Press. 2001.Winner of 2002 Edward Goodwin Ballard Prize In a penetrating and lucid discussion of the enigmatic relationship between the work of Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger, Steven Galt Crowell proposes that the distinguishing feature of twentieth-century philosophy is not so much its emphasis on language as its concern with meaning. Arguing that transcendental phenomenology is indispensable to the philosophical explanation of the space of meaning, Crowell shows how a proper understanding of both Hus…Read more

1This volume contains sOOeen essays written by his students and colleagues in honor of Maurice Natanson. The essays explore some of the diverse themes Professor Natanson has pursued through forty years of teaching and philosophizing in the tradition of existential phenomenology. Because it also includes a lengthy biographical and philosophical interview where one can find an absorbing account of Natanson's Lebens/au/in his own words, there is no need to detail that polypragmatic career here. Suff…Read more

2Truth and Reflection: The Development of Transcendental Logic in Lask, Husserl, and HeideggerDissertation, Yale University. 1981.The claim to truth has been common to both positive science and philosophy. But at present there is no consensus concerning what this claim to truth can mean for philosophical inquiry. Can a given philosophical position be regarded as true or false? Is it still possible to say that philosophical inquiry aims at truth at all? I argue that philosophy must be seen as oriented toward the disclosure of truth if it is to retain that critical dimension in which alone constructive disagreement is possib…Read more

17Mixed messages: The heterogeneity of historical discourseHistory and Theory 37 (2). 1998.If, as many historians and theorists now believe, narrative is the form proper to historical explanation, this raises the problem of the terms in which such narratives are to be evaluated. Without a clear account of evaluation, the status of historical knowledge remains obscure. Beginning with the view, found in Hayden White and others, that historical narrative constitutes a meaning not reducible to the factual content it engages, this essay argues that such meaning can arise only through a syn…Read more
