Abstract

Two kinds of subjectivity, pure ego and noesis, which are contained in the theory of intentionality of Husserl's Ideas, develop into the paradox of human subjectivity between transcendental ego and psychological ego in Crisis. Husserl tried to solve this paradox by way of self-objectification of the former ego into the latter. This essay seeks a more complete solution.
