orbit and far beyond it. Indeed, the immense, painstaking, indefatigable and ever-improving effort of Husserl to find ever-deeper and more reliable foundations for the philosophical enterprise (as well as his constant critical re-thinking and perfecting of the approach and so? called method in order to perform this task and thus cover in this source-excavation an ever more far-reaching groundwork) stands out and maintains itself as an inepuisable reservoir for philosophical reflec? tion in which all the above-mentioned work has either its core or its source. In fact, in his undertaking to re-think the entire philosophical enterprise as such and to recreate philosophy upon what he sought to be at least a satisfactorily legitimated basis, Husserl, through his already systematised and authorized work, and his courses, and later on in his spontaneous reflection (which did not find its way into a definitive corpus but was nevertheless sufficiently coherent with his previously established body of thought to be considered a continuation of it), uncovers perspectives upon the universe of man and projects their new philosophical thematisation that brings together all the attempts by philosophers (e. g. , Merleau-Ponty, who drew upon this material and found there his own inspiration) who succeeded him with foundational intentions; it also gives a core of philosophical ideas and insights for the youngergenerationofphilosophers today.Inaugural Studies the Turning Points of the New Phenomenological Era.- Life, the Critique of Reason, Embodied Subjectivity, the Human Being, the Societal World, Nature, the Creative Experience.- Phenomenology of Life and the New Critique of Reason: From Husserls Philosophy to the Phenomenology of Life and of the Human Condition.- The Construction of Subjectivity.- Husserl and the Anthropological Vocation of Phenomenology.- Was ist und was leistet eine ph?nomenologische Theorie der sozialen Welt?
