Abstract
This is a book review of The Michel Henry Reader, pubished in 2019, and edited by Scott Davidson and Frederic Seyler. It summarizes the basic outlook of Henry's radical phenomenology of life and notes some of its implications.
Highlights
Henry argues that before intuition looks outward into the world of beings, beings and the intentional subject have already appeared
Sixteen chapters in four parts introduce the dramatic implications that his outlook has upon “Phenomenology,” “Subjectivity,” “Politics, Art, and Language,” and “Ethics and Religion.”
The book begins with a brief summary of his ideas and differentiates them from the broader phenomenological tradition
Summary
Henry argues that before intuition looks outward into the world of beings, beings and the intentional subject have already appeared.
