ABSTRACT
The idea of theory of science (Wissenschaftslehre) forms the backbone of Edmund Husserl’s philosophical agenda. This chapter provides a cartography of Husserl’s theory of science, delineating its scope, tasks, and disciplines with their respective fields. The first section discusses Husserl’s system of a theory of science. The second reconstructs the architectonic of Husserl’s formal logic, intended both as formal apophantics and formal ontology. The third considers the evolution of the scope of Husserl’s theory of science as including a plurality of material logics. The fourth discusses Husserl’s notion of noetics as subjective logic. The fifth and last section specifies the function of phenomenology in Husserl’s program of Wissenschaftslehre.
