Reality and Concept: Phenomenological considerations regarding the possibility of making the sense of the real world explicit through ideal objects

Abstract

This article aims at providing a phenomenological clarification of the possibility of undertaking conceptual reflections with the purpose of making explicit the sense that can be attributed to the world itself. As such, it explores the possibility that philosophy can be concerned with the conceptual clarification of reality. It offers an answer to this problematic based on the kind of intentional analysis and remarks proposed by Husserl, as well as on observations of other thinkers that continue to relyon methodical resources introduced by him.
