Primordial phenomena and forms of order within passive synthesis

Edmund Husserl

pp. 162-195

Abstract

The rubric "association" characterizes for us a form and a lawful regularity of immanent genesis that constantly belongs to 10 consciousness in general; but it does not characterize, as it does for psychologists, a form of objective, psychophysical causality; it does not characterize a regulated manner in which the emergence of reproductions, of rememberings, is causally determined in human and animal psychic life. For we are working within the 15 framework of the phenomenological reduction in which all objective reality and objective causality is "bracketed." What is there for us is not the world taken as reality with its psychophysical103 beings and its causalities, but only the phenomena of them, thing-phenomena, human-phenomena, etc., in 20 their intentionality In this framework of pure consciousness, we find the streaming present of consciousness, we find constituted in every case a perceptual reality constituted as in the flesh. But pasts can also enter into present consciousness through remembering. Put more precisely, in the unity of a consciousness that is 25 streaming in the present, we find concretel°4 perceptions with their retentional components, as well as concrete retentions—all of that
