Abstract

Determining an object requires explication. The first grasped outstandingness becomes a theme and then a character is grasped for the sake of it so that it becomes a substratum, while Xa can become a relative substratum upon further explication. Explication is original when intuitive and if not intuitive it can become fulfilled. There can also be articulated spontaneous recollecting. Pairs can become themes, there can be similarities and differences, but explication can never exhaust the inner and relative determinations of individual objects. Explication can be reflective and critical and done in the transcendental as well as the natural attitude.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Continued explication of X in a series of determinations does not involve an act of collecting these determination. That would be a higher founded act.

  2. 2.

    Cf. pp. 202f.

  3. 3.

    A common time is a necessary condition for a common space.

  4. 4.

    We are speaking, of course, of pure fictions, not of non-intuited parts of reality, which are evidently posited as possibly like some fictively evident object. I.e., we are not speaking of the “fiction” which is grasped as compossible with a seriously intuited object, but of the fiction grasped as a pure possibility. (Cf. Chap. 10, pp. 95ff.).

  5. 5.

    Cf. pp. 202f.

  6. 6.

    Cf. Chap. 19, pp. 211–216.

  7. 7.

    Cf. Chaps. 20, 21, and 23, pp. 217–255, 263–273.
