existential phenomenology and the social sciences  

Definition(s)

  • Existential phenomenology is often treated as the application of the German philosopher Edmund Husserl's general phenomenological method directly to the issue of human existence. Major figures in the phenomenological tradition after Husserl for whom concrete human existence is a focal point include Martin Heidegger, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Maurice Merleau-Ponty.
