Abstract

In this chapter, I shall address a number of developments that can be demonstrated in Husserl's analysis of time-consciousness in the L-manuscripts. Some of these developments link up directly with the exposition of the three models in the previous chapter, but all of them foreshadow the following part of this inquiry, which deals with Husserl's analysis of time in the C-manuscripts. The developments I have in mind concern the role of protention; the structure of the phase of perception in which something is given as present now; the phenomenology of recollection; time as a principle of individuation; and the relation between time and the ego. The first two developments mentioned are linked to the exposition in the previous chapter of this inquiry
