Herbert Witzenmann's Structure Phenomenology offers a new approach to the relationship between consciousness and reality, proposing that humans actively participate in the emergence of individual consciousness through pre-reflective processes. This groundbreaking work challenges traditional phenomenological methods and is influenced by the writings of Rudolf Steiner and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. The first English translation of this seminal work makes it accessible to an English audience and provides a comprehensive editorial introduction to place it within the development of phenomenology and current philosophical and psychological debates.

Herbert Witzenmann's groundbreaking work, Strukturphänomenologie, offers a fresh perspective on the interplay between consciousness and reality, departing from traditional phenomenological methods. In this open-access publication, Witzenmann advocates for the active mental participation of humans in the emergence of individual consciousness across various forms. He challenges the notion of habitual phenomenal consciousness as derivative or memorative and proposes that the underlying formative processes be unveiled through systematic first-person observation. Witzenmann's approach, influenced by Rudolf Steiner and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, challenges prevailing notions of consciousness production by emphasizing the preconscious rootedness of individuals in reality. This annotated translation makes Witzenmann's text accessible to an English audience for the first time, providing a comprehensive editorial introduction by Johannes Wagemann that situates his insights within the development of phenomenology and contemporary philosophical and psychological debates.

The ebook editions of this book offer a convenient and accessible way to delve into Witzenmann's seminal work, allowing readers to explore his innovative perspective on consciousness and reality.
