Phenomenology

Phenomenology, as it is explained by ‘The Internet Encyclopaedia of Philosophy”- The direct investigation of experiences without theories of their explanation and as free as possible from unexamined preconceptions. Topics discussed within the phenomenological tradition include the nature of intentionality, perception, time-consciousness, self-consciousness, awareness of one’s own body and consciousness of others.
