Psychology and Phenomenology -- Truthfulness and Memory: Philosophical Notes on Trauma -- Empathy and Reliability: Albert Fraenkel as seen by his Patients Hesse and Jaspers -- On Gadamer, Phenomenology and Historical Relativism -- Max Scheler on Love and Hate: A Phenomenological Approach -- About the Authors -- Analytical Table of Contents -- Process Thought Series
Summary: This volume gathers prominent international scholars to celebrate the complex legacy of Reiner Wiehl, whose work has been instrumental in bringing together the European tradition of prima philosophia as represented by Plato, Spinoza, Kant and Hegel, with the adventurous speculative renewal of the twentieth century by Alfred North Whitehead. Grouped into four sections (Process and Universals, Nature and Subjectivity, Ethics and Civilization, Psychology and Phenomenology) the fifteen papers collected in this book cover a range of topics which is as wide and as intertwined as Wiehl's own expertise. The common thread running through all contributions is the problematic nature of subjectivity and especially of its process slant, which easily eludes the static and abstract schemes of rationality.
