Retrouver la Lebenswelt, par-delà Husserl. Patočka et Ricœur, lecteurs de la Krisis
Résumé
The main goal of my inquiry is to lay out the proximity between Patočka’s
and Ricœur’s readings of Husserl’s Krisis and to stress the role played by the
concept of the life-world in the unfolding of their original philosophical
undertakings. In the first part, I show the importance both Patočka and
Ricœur assignedto the Husserlian project of an “ontology of the life-world”. In
the second part, I expose the criticism these two authors addressed to
Husserl’s understanding of the life-world and, more precisely, to the idea that
the exploration of the life-world is merely another way of gaining access to
transcendental subjectivity. In the last part, I show how the concrete
descriptions of the life-world given by Patočka and Ricœur depart massively
from the Husserlian perspective.
