  • Summary

  • Exploring the timeless ideas of history’s greatest thinkers, one lecture at a time.

    Philosophers must be eternal beginners, according to Edmund Husserl. In this podcast, we invite you to begin with us, accompanied by great lectures.

    Every episode dives into the rich world of phenomenology, existentialism and hermeneutics, posing and answering profound questions concerning human existence. Through these episodes, you'll get familiar with Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Sartre, Levinas, and many others.

    Our first season centers around Awee Prins and his lecture series Human Conditions. To accompany you through this journey, Sonia Shvets and Kas Molenaar will provide brief interludes, insights, and introductions.

    Let's begin, finally!

    E05 Towards Husserl
    Nov 21 2024

    Edmund Husserl - Crisis of the Sciences - First Philosophy

    In order to understand Edmund Husserl's famous dictum to go "zu dem sachen selbst" we need to first understand the reasons for which it makes sense to do so.
    Awee expertly guides us through the crises of sciences, which brings us to Husserl's doorstep.

    Kas and Sonia discuss whether anything Jean — Paul Sartre ever wrote is worth wile, or if he should have at least written something better than the sources he used? And, without missing a beat, they hit their favourite target: the Dostoevsky anvil, lest we forget.

    Let's begin finally!
