Abstract:Husserl praises highly the evidence of phenomenological criticism, and it is precisely the “de-sedimenting” inquiry in search of this evidence which manifests for Husserl the historicity belong to the mode of givenness of phenomenological cognition. By analyzing meaning fundaments of phenomenological cognition,we know that the methodological superiority of phenomenology as presuppositionless science over both Heidegger’s hermeneutic reformulation of phenomenology and Derrida’s deconstruction of it. However, Husserl’s formulation of phenomenology have to come back to the controversy of phantasma of Plato and Aristotle,through which we clear awareness the historicity proper to the original appearance of unity and appearance of multiplicity in Plato, Aristotle, and Husserl. Finally, Facing a question that beyond metaphysics, the phenomenological self-responsibility is called for,and the foresight of Husserl relative to any other 20th century philosopher is highlighted that absenting this singularity and unity, philosophy will be consigned not only to multiplicity but also to the oblivion that necessarily follows the absence of multiplicity’s limit.
