Abstract

Husserl's identification of three strata of formal logic, his phenomenology of objectifying intentions, and the syntheses of fulfillment are used to catalogue the ways in which an object of scientific theory can attain or fail to attain ontological status. Examples from the history of the natural sciences are used to make the case.
