Intentionality and its Objects: Tim Crane´s Philosophical Project and Phenomenology

Abstract

This article focuses on Tim Crane's conception of psychologism and intentionality and its relations to the phenomenological (Husserlian) account.We will first concentrate on Crane's concept of psychologism, then on theconcept of the object of intentionality, and finally on the concept of representation, in order to evaluate the possibilities of a common field of research between phenomenology and analytic philosophy, after many decades of independent and indifferent parallel investigations.
