Abstract

Cairns presents a plausible two-part, step by step, approach seemingly developed in Husserl's "workshop" to transcendental phenomenology that is independent of culture and history, refines a concept of knowledge and its references to worldly things, encounters a difficulty, and resolves it through recognition of a non-worldly apodictic core of consciousness distinct from being in the real temporal, spatial, and causal world.
