Abstract

In this paper I investigate the relationship between the philosophies of Edmund Husserl and Richard Avenarius. Despite this topic has been almost disregarded by Husserlian scholars, it is of uttermost importance if one aims at illuminating the origins of Husserl's phenomenological thinking. My thesis is that Husserl's concept of natural attitude and its correlate, the natural world (Umwelt) - as they emerge in various lectures during the 1910s and especially in Ideen I with respect to the phenomenological reduction stem from an early confrontation with Avenarius' empiriocriticist standpoint as laid out in his book Der menschliche Weltbegrift. In order to uphold this claim, I will discuss in my paper Husserl's gradual approach to the theories of the Swiss-German philosopher as well as his late critique of the same. Although Husserl in fact conceived of Avenarius' standpoint as a valuable beginning, he was decisively prompted in his late reflections to call into question some of the premises of the empi rio-criticist philosophy.
