Abstract

Husserl's Phenomenology: A Lacanian and Feminist Reappraisal This study undertakes a comprehensive critique of Edmund Husserl's phenomenology, highlighting its limitations and omissions. Through Lacanian psychoanalysis, feminist perspectives, and intersubjective theories, this analysis challenges Husserl's notions of bracketing, reduction, and absolute givenness. Key concerns include the neglect of unconscious dynamics, symbolic structures, embodied experience, and cultural contexts. Critics such as Zizek, Sartre, Quine, and Rorty are engaged in addressing issues of solipsism, truth, and ideology. This evaluation underscores the need for phenomenology to integrate diverse perspectives, ensuring a more inclusive and nuanced understanding of human experience. Keywords: Husserl, Phenomenology, Lacanian Psychoanalysis, Feminist Theory, Intersubjectivity, Critical Evaluation.
