56A case for philosophical pluralism: The problem of intentionalityIn Royal Institute of Philosophy Supplement, Cambridge University Press. pp. 19-32. 1996.In what sense can we speak of pluralism regarding the philosophical traditions or styles crudely characterised as ‘Continental’ and ‘Analytic’? Do these traditions address the same philosophical problems in different ways, or pose different problems altogether? What, if anything, do these traditions share?

15Eriugena (review)Review of Metaphysics 44 (1): 156-157. 1990.This is an informative book dealing with a little known philosopher, Johannes Scottus Eriugena. In his first chapter O'Meara gives a succinct yet scholarly account of the historical context of Eriugena's writings--ninth-century Ireland and France. In particular O'Meara stresses that in that century there is abundant evidence that the Irish knew Greek and certainly the groundwork of Eriugena's later knowledge of Greek, evidenced in his translation of Pseudo-Dionysius, could have been laid in the …Read more

165Immanence, Self-Experience, and Transcendence in Edmund Husserl, Edith Stein, and Karl JaspersAmerican Catholic Philosophical Quarterly 82 (2): 265-291. 2008.Phenomenology, understood as a philosophy of immanence, has had an ambiguous, uneasy relationship with transcendence, with the wholly other, with the numinous. If phenomenology restricts its evidence to givenness and to what has phenomenality, what becomes of that which is withheld or cannot in principle come to givenness? In this paper I examine attempts to acknowledge the transcendent in the writings of two phenomenologists, Edmund Husserl and Edith Stein (who attempted to fuse phenomenology w…Read more

66Sinnboden der Geschichte: Foucault and Husserl on the structural a priori of historyContinental Philosophy Review 49 (1): 13-27. 2016.In this paper I explore Husserl’s and Foucault’s approaches to the historical a priori and defend Husserl’s richer notion. Foucault borrows the expression ‘historical a priori’ from Husserl and there are continuities, but also significant and ultimately irreconcilable differences, between their conceptions. Both are looking for ‘conditions of possibility,’ forms of ‘institution’ or instauration, and patterns of transformation, for scientific knowledge. Husserl identifies the ‘a priori of history…Read more
