Edmund Husserl is probaly most wellknown as the father of phenomenology. Phenomenology, in Husserl's conception, is primarily concerned with the systematic reflection on and analysis of the structures of consciousness, and the phenomena which appear in acts of consciousness. Such reflection was to take place from a highly modified "first person" viewpoint, studying phenomena not as they appear to "my" consciousness, but to any consciousness whatsoever. Husserl believed that phenomenology could thus provide a firm basis for all human knowledge, including scientific knowledge, and could establish philosophy as a "rigorous science" [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenomenology_(philosophy)] | Edmund Husserl is probaly most wellknown as the father of phenomenology.
