Exploring Phenomenology
A Guide to the Field & Its Literature
By David Stewart and Algis Mickunas

Investigations in Philosophy of Space
By Elisabeth Ströker
·
Translation by Algis Mickunas
The central contribution of Ströker’s investigations is a careful and strict analysis of the relationship between experienced space, Euclidean space, and non-Euclidean spaces. Her study begins with the question of experienced space, inclusive of mood space, space of action and perception, of practical activities and bodily orientations, and ends with the controversies of the proponents of geometric and mathematical understanding of space.

Translation by Noel Barstad and Algis Mickunas
