This book features a theoretical depiction of the Italian phenomenological tradition. It brings together the main Italian phenomenologists of the present to discuss the positions and theories of the most important Italian phenomenologists of the past. Those profiled include Antonio Banfi, Sofia Vanni Rovighi, Enzo Paci, Dino Formaggio, Giuseppe Semerari, Enzo Melandri, Paolo Bozzi, Carlo Sini, Giovanni Piana, and Paolo Parrini. This collection shows not only the variety of perspectives. It also shows the inner consistency, peculiarity and originality of the tradition. Moreover, the contributors connect continental and analytical traditions, the scientific approach, and existentialism. In addition, the book deals critically with the legacy of the Italian tradition in the Husserlian Studies. Italian phenomenology, the rise of which dates back to Antonios Banfi writings on Husserl in 1923, proves to be from its very beginning a relational philosophy. It is a philosophy that is capable, precisely by means of its method, to develop actual forms of communication and exchange among different sciences, so as to prevent the divarication of knowledges through a dynamic knowledge structure. This book will provide graduate students and researchers with unique insights into this school of thought.
