Phenomenology & Existentialism; Philosophy: metaphysics & ontology; Philosophy: epistemology & theory of knowledge; Philosophy: aesthetics

This volume explores the work of Polish phenomenologist Roman Ingarden (1893-1970) with respect to his ontology, epistemology and aesthetics. An outstanding student of Edmund Husserl, it offers a unique tribute to one of the most important figures in contemporary philosophy.

Leszek Sosnowski and Natalia Anna Michna introduce a team of renowned scholars to present new and timely readings of Ingarden’s thought, placing his philosophy in a broader historical and cultural context. In doing so, they offer a cutting edge reflection on the relevance, refinement and depth of Ingarden’s theory. Chapters are not only retrospective, but also set out the present and future development of philosophy inspired by his works.

Reinvigorating the debate about Ingarden’s phenomenological legacy and its relevance for contemporary thought, this collection of essays guides us through his place in the history of philosophy and presents new perspectives on selected aspects of his theory.

Reviews for Roman Ingarden’s Aesthetics and Ontology: Contemporary Readings

Roman Ingarden is renowned for his works on aesthetics and ontology, which are informed by the phenomenological analysis of our experiences and their objects. This cutting-edge study on Ingarden, collected in the present volume, will offer readers insights into his gigantic system, which reflects the complexity of our conscious life. * Genki Uemura, Associate Professor, Okayama University, Japan * This collection offers the first systematic discussion of Roman Ingarden's aesthetics and ontology. Beginning with an introduction to the life and work of Ingarden and his relevance for contemporary debates, the essays examine and clarify some of the most important concepts of his philosophy: modalities, ontology, reality, and empathy. * Daniele De Santis, Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies, Charles University, Czech Republic *
