À la lisière des disjonctions en concrescence: Réduction méréologique et Principe des principes

Abstract

At first, we will present some fundamentals
pertaining
Husserl’s
méréologie,
and,
consequently, the idea of a mereological
reduction. Indeed, the phenomenon, against
what has currently been sustained, is an
articulated whole whose intensity and richness
are matched by its purity. It is with this
coalescence in mind that we return to the final
clause of the “principle of all principles”
(Ideen I, §24), which is often misinterpreted as
a limitation of phenomenality whereas it leads,
nevertheless, to a magnificent freeing of its
very richness. Remaining faithful to the final
clause of the principle of all principles
discloses the richness of the phenomenological
realm. We will finally deal with the difficult
relation between mereology, mereological
reduction, and givenness.
