A risky business

internal time and objective time in Husserl and woolf

Ralph Strehle

pp. 81-91

The discussion that follows aims to chart a series of relationships, encapsulated in the broader relationship between the philosophy of Edmund Husserl and the novels of Virginia Woolf. The crucial relationship under scrutiny here is that between the self and the other, and the question of intersubjectivity that this relationship raises. But this relationship is itself related to another — the relationship between the self and time. And in scrutinizing this latter relationship, a further distinction emerges between two temporalities: a subjective, internal time, and an objective, external time. The relationship between these two temporalities is of central importance in understanding the relationship between the self and the other, as I hope to demonstrate in readings of Husserl and Woolf.
