The aim of this course is to explore some of the lesser-known or even forgotten women in early phenomenology. Many women in early phenomenology were established intellectuals who contributed greatly to the field, yet their contributions and developments remain unacknowledged and overlooked today. In this course, we will examine two distinct early phenomenologists who both studied with Husserl. The course is divided into two parts. The first component focuses on Gerda Walther and will take place in weeks one and two, led by Julia Mühl-Sawatzki. In weeks three and four, Daniel Neumann will lead an exploration of Hedwig Conrad-Martius’ phenomenology of reality. Check out the full scope of the course for more on Walther and Conrad-Martius…
