subject-object-relationship

“This ‘subject-object-relationship’ has to be presupposed. This presupposition is de facto unimpeachable, but that is precisely why it remains a truly disastrous presupposition so long its ontological necessity, and especially its ontological meaning, are left in the dark.”

Martin Heidegger, Being and Time

Husserl’s comment:

“Yes, because the entire constitution of being-an-object is skipped over. But the fault lies with objectivism and naturalism.”

Edmund Husserl, Psychological and Transcendental Phenomenology and the Confrontation with Heidegger 1927-1931, p.307
