Abstract

By absolute consciousness Husserl did not mean to designate simply an epistemological function; absolute consciousness is a region of reality (albeit the proto-region), an ontic existent, individualizing itself across its internal temporality as a singular ego. In addition it inheres in a body.1 This means that psychism is apperceived in the heart of Nature. But it also means that corporeity is apperceived within intentionality itself.
