The Research On Husserl's Thought Of Scientific Philosophy

Edmund Husserl (1859—1938 ) , a famous German philosopher and the founder of the Phenomenology. The phenomenology found by him is one of the philosophic schools of thought, which has the greatest significance in 20th century. And it is also the most important philosophic thought, which is generally acknowledged by western academic circles in modern times. The phenomenological method used by Husserl, not only lays a foundation of the development of the phenomenological movement — the most important philosophic thoughts in European mainland in 20th century, but also has exerted broad and profound influence on various fields and disciplines, including the western philosophy, psychology, aesthetics, literature, logic, ethics, mathematics, natural science and even economics and so on.The special subjects about the phenomenological movement and its influence on other philosophic movements have already been analyzed and discussed thoroughly. But the academic circles haven't paid much attention to Husserl's thought of scientific philosophy for a long time. The criticism of the basis of the science is an important part in his thoughts actually. Studying his thoughts of philosophy of science helps us to clarify the understanding of the orthodox philosophy of science.The thesis reviews the history of the development of philosophy of science, introduces Husserl's phenomenology briefly, and then attempts to analyze and discuss his thoughts of scientific philosophy primarily.The thesis divides into three parts. The first part introduces all Husserl's life and his main academic contributions, and the state of domestic and international study on his thoughts at present. The second part expounds three stages and the main content of his thought of philosophy of science, including five points mainly: "building up philosophy as a rigorous science", "criticism of scientific concept of logical positivism", "science returns to the life-world", "inter-subjectivity in phenomenology" and "intentionality in phenomenology". The third part tries to appraise Husserl's thoughts of scientific philosophy, sums up its distinguishing features and limitations.
