"Exzerpte" zu Jean Herings Staatsexamensarbeit

Ms. Signatur A III 1/9–16

Edmund Husserl

pp. 27-34

Abstract

The following text, which is now published for the first time, comes from Husserl’s manuscript A III 1 and was probably written in 1914. The text belongs to a bundle of pages which Husserl wrote down during the presentation and examination of the "Staatsexamensarbeit" of his student Jean Hering. The work "Die Lehre vom Apriori bei Lotze" was done by Hering in the summer semester 1914 in order to receive a degree that would qualify him as a secondary school teacher (Prüfung der Befähigung zum höheren Lehramt). Although this "Staatsexamensarbeit" was never published, Hering used parts of it for his article which appeared in the Jahrbuch, "Bemerkungen über das Wesen, die Wesenheit und die Idee. Edmund Husserl zum 60. Geburtstag gewidmet" (in: Jahrbuch für Philosophie und phänomenologische Forschung IV, 1921, pp. 495–543). Husserl characterized pages 5 to 8 of the manuscript A III 1 as his "own reflections" (eigene Reflexionen) on Hering’s work. These pages are published as "Text Nr. 5" in Husserliana XLI (pp. 83–89). What follows here are pages 9 to 16 of this manuscript, which Husserl called "free excerpts" (freie Exzerpte).
