Abstract

The authors expound on early phenomenology in Prague in two steps. The first step concerns Prague as a central location for the teaching of Brentanian philosophy as it was represented by its orthodox followers (especially Anton Marty), but also by heterodox students of Brentano (especially Christian von Ehrenfels). The second step concerns Marty's reception of Edmund Husserl's Logical Investigations, particularly as this involves the controversy regarding the theory of the immanent object.
