Resumen

BORIS, Georges Daniel Janja Bloc. The (little known) contribution of Brentano for humanistic psychotherapies. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2011, vol.17, n.2, pp.193-197. ISSN 1809-6867.

This text is proposed to discuss, between those who are linked to phenomenology, the strange fact of that, in contrast of what happens to Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre or Merleau-Ponty, few of them seem to recognize the important contribution of Franz Brentano for humanistic psychotherapies. Although he was not a psychologist, Brentano was dedicated to psychology and, as a precursor of phenomenology, he was a pioneer of fundamental questions that, currently, cross the epistemological and philosophical bases of phenomenological and humanistic approaches in psychotherapy. Thus, the text discusses his theory of intentionality, the Act-Psychology and the Philosophy of the Present as meaningful contributions to the practice of humanistic psychotherapies.
