Hegel (1770-1831) is one of the major philosophers of the nineteenth century.

The Basic Problems of Phenomenology (Studies in Phenomenology & Existential Philosophy)
AuthorMartin Heidegger
For anyone who wants to see what the third division of S&Z was supposed to be about.

Husserl's Phenomenology
AuthorDan Zahavi
ISBN0804745463
It is commonly believed that Edmund Husserl (1859-1938), well known as the founder of phenomenology and as the teacher of Heidegger, was unable to free himself from the framework of a classical metaphysics of subjectivity. Supposedly, he never abandoned the view that the world and the Other are constituted...
Totality and Infinity: An Essay on Exteriority
AuthorEmmanuel Levinas
ISBN0820702455
Altering the very first sentence of this extraordinary and highly original book, I quote: "Everyone will readily agree that it is of the highest importance to know whether we are not duped by freedom." I have, of course, replaced the word "freedom" for "morality." In altering the sentence, however,...
The Human Place in the Cosmos
AuthorMax Scheler
ISBN0810125293
It's the first time I read Scheler. This work, originally entitled Die Stellung des Menschen im Kosmos (1928), was a bit tough to follow. “A bit tough”, who am I kidding? It was painfully difficult, I'm not that familiar with philosophic anthropology, but I want to.
Well, he tries to explain...

The Imaginary
AuthorJean-Paul Sartre
ISBN0415287553
In psychology, Sartre is sure different than the "old shaman" Jung. Being the atheistic existentialist, Sartre doesn't think we can transcend projection. In fact, since all is subjective we can only know each other through projecting ourselves onto each other.

"When will the beloved become...
The Theory of Communicative Action, Vol 1: Reason & the Rationalization of Society
AuthorJürgen Habermas
ISBN0807015075
This is a difficult book to rate, since it's obviously very important/influential. And the horrific style could bias anyone against it. But I finally settled on two stars. Why?

* Habermas' theory is meant to be an advance beyond previous critical theories. He argues that their focus on consciousness...
