This edited collection discusses phenomenological critiques of formalism and their relevance to the problem of responsibility and the lifeworld. The book deals with themes of formalization of knowledge in connection to the lifeworld, the natural world, the history of science and our responsibility for both our epistemic claims and the world in which we live. Readers will discover critiques of formalization, the lifeworld and responsibility, and a collation and comparison of Patockas and Husserls work on these themes. Considerable literature on Husserl is presented here and the two themes of epistemic responsibility and the lifeworld are discussed together. This work specifically emphasizes the interrelatedness of these existential aspects of his work selfresponsibility and the crisis as not only epistemological, but also related to human life. This volume also introduces Jan Patocka to Englishspeaking readers as a phenomenologist in his own right. Patocka shows us, in particular, the significance of the modern abyss between our thinking and the world. Readers will discover that this abyss is of concern for our everyday experience because it leads to a rupture in our understanding of the world: between the world of our living and its scientific construct. We see that Patocka continually emphasized the relevance of Husserls work to existential questions relating to human responsibility and the lifeworld, which he admits is left largely implicit in Husserls work. This edited collection will spark discussion on the question of responsibility against the backdrop of formalized knowledge which is increasingly inaccessible to human understanding. Despite the complexity of some of the analyzed ideas, this book discusses these themes in a clear and readable way. This work is scholarly, exact in its discussion and authoritative in its reading, but at the same time accessible to anyone motivated to understand these debates.
