Abstract
This chapter concludes the book’s discussion of Phenomenology, and has two main aims. The first is to make explicit some of the fundamental aspects of the ontology that undergirds the work. This will hinge on taking the holism in perception to have ontological import and then finding that holism to support the notion of “essential manifestness.” This is the idea that while there is some reality independent of our minds, there is also an aspect of reality that is dependent on the relation between mind and world for its being. This will lead to the second aim, which is to discuss the fundamental transcendental role played by intersubjectivity. This is because the holistic relations between embodied subjects and their environments necessarily entail relations between embodied subjects and other embodied subjects.
