FRIEDRICH EDUARD BENEKE: PSYCHOLOGISM, PSYCHOLOGY AND METAPHYSICS

ABSTRACT

Beneke’s name has been inextricably linked to the concept of psychologism and, by decorum, to the decisive criticism that the Husserlian Prolegomena directed at this movement. In this text we try to offer a more diferentiated vision of his philosophy, considering aspects of his thought that are now forgotten and placing them within the tradition of the psychological method. In this way, perspectives are opened not only for the understanding of the aforementioned tradition, but also for a consideration of psychologism and Psychologismusstreit more appropriate to the historical-philosophical reality and less unilaterally influenced by the authority of Husserl.

Keywords:
Psychologism; Psychological method; Logische Frage; Metaphysic; Beneke; Brentano
