Zásady pro vypracování

Post-war France saw many attempts to reconcile the phenomenological project with Marxism. One of those endeavors is represented by Tran Duc Thao's work Phénoménologie et Matérialisme Dialectique. Thao was one of the first to gain access to Husserl's unpublished works in Leuven, and in his evaluation of Husserl's phenomenology found himself facing an unsurpassable contradiction between the theoretical principles of the Husserlian method and the results of his concrete analyses. Although admittedly not satisfied with his own solution to the problems of Husserlian phenomenology, Thao's account of the latter was influential among the thinkers of his time and laid the groundwork for future attempts at overcoming these problems. The present theses will try to follow Thao's reading of Husserl in the first part of Phénoménologie et Matérialisme Dialectique and the reasons that led him to assume a standpoint from which the only way to overcome the difficulties of phenomenology was the path of dialectical materialism. The thesis will further try to carve out Thao's own conception of phenomenology and what, despite the criticism he had for Husserl's work, led him to regard it as a starting point for all his further theoretical endeavors.
