Please respond to the following question in
approximately two pages (double spaced). (Needless to say this should
be your own original work.)
In Ideas §32, Husserl makes a connection
between ``attempted doubt'' and the peculiar modification or change in
attitude which he calls greek>epoq'h (epoche). What is
supposed to be the connection? Why are the two not simply identified?
How is Husserl's proposed phenomenological greek>epoq'h therefore
related to (similar to and different from) Descartes's universal
attempted doubt (in procedure, scope, and/or aim)?
