Munich Phenomenology




At that time some of the students of Theodor Lipps , who were organised in the ''Psychologische Verein'' ("Psychological Association"), notably Adolf Reinach , Johannes Daubert and Alexander Pfänder , were inspired by Husserl's work and took it as a guideline for doing philosophy. Around 1905 many students of Lipps (captained by Daubert) decided to abandon Munich and to head for Göttingen , to study with Husserl (this is also referred to as the Munich Invasion Of Göttingen ).

Notably, in 1912 the Munich phenomenologists Reinach, Pfänder and Moritz Geiger founded the famous ''Jahrbuch für Philosophie und phänomenologische Forschung'', with Husserl as main editor.

After Husserl's publication of the Ideen (Ideas) in 1913, many phenomenologists took a critical stance towards his new theories. Many members of the Munich group distanced itself from his Transcendental Phenomenology and preferred the earlier Realist Phenomenology of the first edition of the ''Logical Investigations''.
