The concept of constitution and Hume's imagination
pp. 49-63
Abstract
The operation of phenomenological reduction opens up a realm of all foundations. This apodictic instance of original experience is the pure intentional consciousness of constitution. The concept of constitution is as irritating1 as the concept of reduction, and it is as important, if not more, as the concept of reduction. It is but natural that Husserl after having discovered the pure reduced realm of pure intentional consciousness must now turn to the task of constituting the world of things and beings eliminated by the phenomenological reduction. M. Farber calls the way "the way out"2 for it now goes to understand the "bracketed" transcendence.
