Horizon and Alterity in Husserl
Lünser, Julian Alexander ; Novotný, Karel (advisor) ; Brudzinska, Jagna (referee)
Julian Lünser Master's Thesis Master Erasmus Mundus: Europhilosophie Charles University, Prague 5th May 2023 Abstract Horizon and Alterity in Husserl The problem of alterity was not thematised frontally by Husserl, in contrast to the work of later phenomenologists. Notwithstanding, following the thesis that is defended here, it is possible to conceive of an implicit conception of alterity in Husserl's writings. Such a conception shows itself in a more precise analysis of Husserl's concept of the horizon which stands in an ambivalent relation to alterity: On the one hand, the horizon structure refers to a non-given excess, and thus opens up alterity; on the other hand, this excess is always already, at least minimally, prescribed and hence withdraws the otherness from the alterity. This ambivalent relation is described in the course of this master's thesis on different levels. This allows to distinguish between the alterity of the immediately appearing, exemplified by things and the own self, and the alterity of the mediately appearing, such as the other person. While it is possible to directly explicate and hence test the horizons of the immediatly appearing, such a possibility is not given for the apperception of the mediately appearing. In addition, the temporal structure of the appearance of alterity is...

Epoché and the Ten Modes of Scepticism
Křibská, Jana ; Thein, Karel (advisor) ; Špinka, Štěpán (referee)
The objective of this thesis is to outline Pyrrhonian Scepticism, its development and main representatives. In accordance with primary sources, I try to analyze the Modes of Scepticism, point out its similarities and dissimilarities and if appropriate, its validity. In the next part, two different interpretations of Scepticism are introduced, ethical and epistemological. Within the frame of those, I try to reason if and how epochē leads to ataraxia. Within the scope of presented interpretations, I conclude, that in the frame of epistemological interpretation, ataraxia follows epochē, not in terms of causality, but as a recollective sign. In accordance with ethical interpretation, I try to question whether the Sceptic is able to reach happiness and if, how it would be manifested in his everyday life. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Phenomenology and daseinsanalysis
Zemánková, Markéta ; Hogenová, Anna (advisor) ; Blažková, Miloslava (referee)
Phenomenology has been established by Edmund Husserl, who refused the adoption of methods from naturally oriented sciences to philosophy, which, being the highest of all sciences, paradoxically seemed absolutely unscientific to Husserl. Edmund Husserl served as an inspiration for his most famous disciple, Martin Heidegger, who developed fundamental ontology, and thus provided a brand new and essential view of man and human existence in general. His concept of man gave rise to a psychotherapeutic approach - daseinsanalysis, which has been created mainly by Medard Boss, with contribution from Martin Heidegger himself.
