Abstract

This article examines the major contribution to phenomenology by Jitendra Nath Mohanty, who first published in Philosophical and Phenomenological Research in 1954 soon after he had completed his dissertation under Josef König at the University of Göttingen. In 2008 and 2011, this literary output culminated in a substantial two-volume intellectual history of the philosophy of Edmund Husserl from the early Göttingen years until Husserl's death in 1938. In the five decades of commitment to the exposition of Husserl's thought, Mohanty's early philosophical influences remained with him and justify his self-identification as a phenomenological Vedāntin.
