This work is prefaced by Robert Sokolowski and represents the first study examining Rota's philosophical works. The book presents a general picture of Rota’s personal interpretation of phenomenology, influenced by theoretical and didactic demands, focusing in particular on the Heideggerian themes of context and tool. In this perspective the notion of Fundierung and the star-shape becomes a powerful instrument for understanding the properties of Husserl's mereology and for the critique of objectivism. The monograph provides a complete bibliography of Rota’s philosophical texts.

Abstract

This work is prefaced by Robert Sokolowski and represents the first study examining Rota's philosophical works. The book presents a general picture of Rota’s personal interpretation of phenomenology, influenced by theoretical and didactic demands, focusing in particular on the Heideggerian themes of context and tool. In this perspective the notion of Fundierung and the star-shape becomes a powerful instrument for understanding the properties of Husserl's mereology and for the critique of objectivism. The monograph provides a complete bibliography of Rota’s philosophical texts.
