Abstract
Husserl’s concept of the “Lebenswelt” (life-world) is to be found implicitly in his theory of the “general thesis” (Generalthesis) of the natural standpoint. But a real terminological fixation along with a conceptual clarification takes place late in the writings of Husserl. “Lebenswelt”, as would be seen, includes all the objects, persons and events which we encounter in our experience. All the different worlds divided in regions are appearing as figures at the background of one common life-world. The objects are surrounded by a field which refers to other objects.1
