This book is Michel Henry’s most sustained investigation of Husserlian phenomenology. With painstaking detail and precision, Henry reveals the decisive methodological assumptions that led Husserlian phenomenology in the direction of Idealism. Returning to the materiality of life, Henry’s material phenomenology situates central phenomenological themes―intentionality, temporality, embodiment, and intersubjectivity―within the full concreteness of life. One of the most accessible of Henry’s books, Material Phenomenology is essential reading for those interested in the future of phenomenology or in a philosophy of life in the truest sense.

"A very important contribution to the foundation and the method of philosophy. ~ Adriaan Peperzak, Loyola University, Chicago

"Michel Henry's re-definition of Husserl's phenomenology can be compared only with that of Levinas. He was able to uncover some possibilities actually reached by Husserl, but kept hidden by his idealist turn, as in the primacy of Leib, the originarity of the self-affection of the self, and the limits of intentionality. This led him to reach one of the very few rigorous concepts of life ever achieved in philosophy. It is time to pay serious attention to one of the most important philosophers of the last century. ~ Jean-Luc Marion, Université Paris-Sorbonne, University of Chicago

"This book will be of great value and interest to those interested in Henry's philosophy of life, Husserlian scholars, ad for thos interested in the future of phenomenology". ~ Kinesis

"Published originally in French in 1990, this book is an important contribution to phenomenology. Henry (1922-2002; formerly, Univ. Paul Valéry) argues that phenomenology must be grounded in the radical immanence of life. He elaborates on this argument through a careful, detailed analysis of Husserlian conceptions of hyle (matter), the method of phenomenological reductions, and intersubjectivity in chapters 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Henry consistently responds to phenomenological claims of transcendence with his own claims of immanence focusing on the "pathos of life." He defines the substance of the material phenomenology of the title as "the pathetic immediacy in which life experiences itself." So where Husserl speaks of reduction to a sphere of pure phenomenological seeing, Henry counters that such a reduction focuses too much on what is outside, visible, and at a distance, rather than on the materiality and self-affectivity of life. The analysis presumes significant knowledge of Husserlian phenomenology, but is an original and creative contribution to phenomenological research. Davidson (Oklahoma City Univ.) provides a clear translation of this work and an elucidating introduction. Summing Up: Recommended. Advanced undergraduates through faculty/researchers". ~ Choice
