Abstract
Contrary to some interpretations that point towards a non-linear development of Husserl’s thought with different stages (from a descriptive psychology to a transcendental phenomenology and to an intersubjectivity based on the Life-world) we want to show how his fundamental philosophical directions were already present at the beginning of his work: the need to rethink the foundations of science, the meaning of objectivity, the struggle against empiricism. We will direct our attention to the concept of normality as a way to address in a non-reductionist approach the problem of intersubjectivity, that is, as constitutive of myself through the other, as a result of my fundamental abnormality, and also as related to the development of the concept of the life-world so as to establish the ground for a comparison with Guillermo Hoyos’ interpretations of Husserl in his book Phenomenological Investigations.
