Examines how Husserl took over Brentano's concept of intentionality and solved its problems with the idea of the noema, and compares it with Frege's theory of sense.

Napoleon M. Mabaquiao Jr.

Defends Husserl's view that there is no intentionality without lived experience against the criticisms of Wittgenstein, Ryle and their followers.

Uwe Meixner

A master's thesis on cognitive phenomenology, the question of whether thinking itself has a felt character, and what that means for intentionality.

Gábor Matula

Brings the phenomenological tradition into today's debate on phenomenal intentionality, the link between conscious experience and directedness toward objects.
