“Horizon. Studies in Phenomenology”—Vol. 9, No. 2, 2020
Special Issue on “Roman Ingarden’s Philosophy Reconsidered”
Guest Editors: Witold Płotka & Thomas Byrne

To commemorate the 50^th anniversary of Ingarden’s death, our ambition is, first, to explore Ingarden’s philosophical position in the context of the 20^th century phenomenological movement, and second, to raise the question of today’s relevance of Ingarden’s philosophy in general and his phenomenology in particular in the 21^st century philosophy. Thus, in announcing this call for papers, we are seeking new contributions—both systematic and historical—to Ingarden’s philosophy. We welcome submissions on topics connected to Ingarden’s philosophical and phenomenological legacy, including—but not limited to—such topics as:

• The question of the phenomenological method.
• The relationship between phenomenology and ontology.
• The realism-idealism controversy.
• Ingarden’s theory of intentionality and its relevance for contemporary philosophy of mind.
• Knowledge and experience.
• The issue of the world and human beings.
• The question of values.
• The structure and a philosophical approach to literary, architectural, musical, cinematic and other artworks.
• Ingarden’s position in the context of the phenomenological movement and the 20^th century philosophy.
• Reception of Ingarden’s philosophy in different countries.
