Abstract

The immediate objective of the present essay is to serve as an introduction to the first English translation of selected texts from the writings of Alexander Pfäender, one of the early German phenomenologists, usually known merely for his psychological phenomenology and for his even more influential Logik. I want to show that his phenomenology may have particular significance today for all those who have an interest in the development of a philosophical anthropology and especially in the significance of phenomenology for this development.

From Review of Existential Psychology and Psychiatry V (1965), pp. 122–136.
