Vasily Sesemann Experience, Formalism, and the Question of Being

"Botz-Bornstein's study takes up Sesemann's idea of "experience" as a dynamic, constantly self-reflective, "ungraspable" phenomenon that cannot be objectified. Through various studies, the author shows how Sesemann develops an outstanding idea of experience by reflecting it against empathy, Erkenntnistheorie (theory of knowledge), Formalism, Neo-Kantianism, Freudian psychoanalysis, and Bergson's philosophy. Sesemann's thought establishes a link between Formalist thoughts about "dynamics" and a concept of Being reminiscent of Heidegger." "The book contains also translations of two essays by Sesemann as well as of an essay by Karsavin."--BOOK JACKET.Botz-Bornstein, Thorsten is the author of 'Vasily Sesemann Experience, Formalism, and the Question of Being', published 2006 under ISBN 9789042020924 and ISBN 904202092X.
