ABSTRACT
Edmund Husserl is the founder of the method of scientific and philosophical research called phenomenology. Rather, Husserl makes the claim that by focusing on an aspect of that which is reduced, the transcendental phenomenological reduction, on the contrary, opens up an aspect of it that is disclosed by systematic phenomenological investigation to be infinite. Given the trans regional scope of the reflection in which the transcendental phenomenological reduction is effected, Husserl characterized it as a transcendental reflection. Transcendental phenomenological reflection is distinguished from its phenomenologically psychological variant by its bracketing and suspension, respectively, of the natural attitude and its thesis, and the reductive generalization of this thesis. Husserl's general argument that the natural, human, and formal sciences are cognitively incomplete focuses on their uncritical epistemic relationship to the natural attitude and its thesis that what's really real are independently existing physical objects.
