Abstract

In this chapter we assess the nature and importance of horizon-analysis as a special kind and part of phenomenological analysis. Basically, we view the analysis of an act's horizon as a certain way of "explicating", or making clear, the phenomenological structure of the act, especially its meaning, or Sinn.
