Biographical/Historical Information

The philosopher Edmund Husserl was born in Proßnitz, Moravia (Prostějov, Czech Republic) in 1859; he died in Freiburg i.Br. in 1938.

“Edmund Husserl was the principal founder of phenomenology—and thus one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century. He has made important contributions to almost all areas of philosophy and anticipated central ideas of its neighbouring disciplines such as linguistics, sociology and cognitive psychology.” [Source: Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
