Henomenology (From

Phenomenology is the philosophical study of structures of experience and consciousness, founded in the early 20th century by Edmund Husserl. It examines how people experience phenomena through their senses and how phenomena appear in consciousness. While phenomenology has no single definition and differs between authors, it generally focuses on describing pre-reflective experiences rather than theorizing or analyzing.

henomenology (from Greek phainómenon "that which appears" and lógos "study") is

the philosophical study of the structures of experience and consciousness. As a philosophical


movement it was founded in the early years of the 20th century by Edmund Husserl and was later
expanded upon by a circle of his followers at the universities of Göttingen and Munich in Germany. It
then spread to France, the United States, and elsewhere, often in contexts far removed from
Husserl's early work.[1]
Phenomenology is not a unitary movement; rather, different authors share a common family
resemblance but also with many significant differences. Gabriella Farina states:
A unique and final definition of phenomenology is dangerous and perhaps even paradoxical as it
lacks a thematic focus. In fact, it is not a doctrine, nor a philosophical school, but rather a style of
thought, a method, an open and ever-renewed experience having different results, and this may
disorient anyone wishing to define the meaning of phenomenology.[2]
