Beyond Husserl, Heidegger, and Merleau-Ponty : The Phenomenology of Marc Richir

In this article, I aim to introduce Marc Richir’s refoundation of transcendantal phenomenology. Starting from the double— “symbolic” and properly “phenomenological”—constitution of the concept of phenomenon, I present the key concepts of Richir’s “phe- nomenology nova methodo”: hyperbolical phenomenological epo- che , schematism, affectivity, phantasy, and so on. Beneath the dis- tinction between theory of knowledge and ontology, I seek to un- derstand both the sense of what he calls the “endogenization” of the phenomenological field and, “beyond Husserl, Heidegger and Mer- leau-Ponty,” the role of temporality in the phenomenalization of the phenomenon.
