I begin by summarizing Stoker’s study of conscience in Das Gewissen . Then I contrast the initial acclaim it received from well-known phenomenologists with its subsequent undeserved neglect. One reason for the neglect, I surmise, is the waning of general interest in phenomenological approaches. Other reasons include Stoker’s relative isolation in South Africa, declining interest in Christian approaches to philosophy, and Calvinist concerns about the influence of Bavinck’s scholasticism and Scheler’s phenomenological method on Stoker. I argue that none of these reasons justifies the present neglect of Stoker’s magisterial work and its seminal insights.

HG Stoker 对良心的研究、它的接受程度及其作为改革传统工作的意义

我首先总结斯托克在 Das Gewissen 中对良心的研究。然后，我将它从著名现象学家那里获得的最初赞誉与随后的不当忽视进行了对比。我推测，忽视的原因之一是对现象学方法的普遍兴趣减弱。其他原因包括斯托克在南非的相对孤立、对基督教哲学方法的兴趣下降，以及加尔文主义者担心巴文克的经院哲学和舍勒的现象学方法对斯托克的影响。我认为，这些原因都不能证明目前对斯托克的权威工作及其开创性见解的忽视是合理的。
