Abstract

Husserl begins his Fundamental Consideration with a sketch of the natural attitude and how it is to be disconnected. The first chapter occupies a special place within the whole. In a few pithy words we are told what the natural attitude is and how it is to be disconnected or suspended. There is no prior statement about the possibility and necessity of such an operation.
