Joseph G. Trabbic Ph.D. considers a proposal by French philosopher Jean-Luc Marion, who writes in Husserl's tradition. The article appears in 2021 in The American Catholic Philosophical Quarterly, under the full title, "Jean-Luc Marion and the Phenomenologie de la Donation as a First Philosophy".
Trabbic asks the reader to recognize a possibility.
Jean-Luc Marion's philosophical identification of givenness, as the first philosophy guiding phenomenology, may be important, even though it does not make sense.
Well, maybe it does make sense, if one imagines that phenomenology situates science, rather than the undeniably metaphysical world of our everyday lives.
This suggestion is formulated in Comments on Mark Spencer's Essay (2021) "The Many Phenomenological Reductions", which is listed as required reading.
Marion, Trabbic and Spencer do not mention science at all, giving these comments full reign.
Phenomenological reduction situates empirical science. Givenness places phenomenological reduction into perspective.
Today, we live in laboratories.
Both Trabbic and Spencer stand at a door that phenomenology creatively unlocks.
