Anthony Fernandez: Applied Phenomenology
LECTURE

Abstract
Phenomenology is often characterized as a study of the essential or universal structures of experience and subjectivity, such as selfhood, embodiment, affectivity, and temporality. In this respect, phenomenology continues the philosophical tradition of being concerned with universal truths, rather than with contingent or particular facts of life. However, researchers working across a variety of disciplines have found inspiration and guidance from phenomenology and have developed ways of using this approach to study particular groups and populations. Such applications have been developed in anthropology, sociology, education, psychiatry, the cognitive sciences, nursing, and sports science, among other fields. In this presentation, I discuss some of the challenges of doing this kind of interdisciplinary research, focusing on how philosophical phenomenology can productively inform research across the human sciences and how empirical studies in the human sciences can reciprocally inform philosophical phenomenology.
