Abstract

FERREIRA, Rafael Bastos. Husserl, life-world and geography. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2016, vol.22, n.2, pp.119-126. ISSN 1809-6867.

The paper aims to make a phenomenological deepening of the Husserl's concept of the "life-world" (Lebenswelt) in geographical science. To want it, make relevant considerations to provide us with positive elements to produce a debate on this subject still little discussed in the assumptions in this discipline today. Indeed, the text will present three reflection of movements: a) to outline the Husserl's treatment of the concept of life-world and the debate that surrounds him; b) understand the tradition of humanistic and phenomenological geography, from some authors, the way it was interpreted and applied. Finally, we aim to expand and (re) affirm the life-world as a fundamental horizon and soil in the geographical science study nowadays.

Keywords : Phenomenology; knowledge; Phenomenological geography.
