| Résumé: | First, the chief method and object of philosophy as phenomenological realism understands it will be explained. Second, I turn to Dietrich von Hildebrand's distinction between a person's awareness of philosophical objects based on that person's lived contact with the world and his or her theories about these objects. I emphasize that there is to be an organic transition between these two levels of awareness but that this organic transition is often missing, as in the case of nonphilosophers who uncritically adopt theoretical views without paying attention to what reality has "told" them about itself, as well as in the case of philosophers. I will show that often, the absence of this organic transition leads to contradictions between what a person is aware of pre-theoretically and that very same person's theoretical views. Thus, it is of crucial importance to pay attention to what is immediately given. |
