There is an obscure but recurring strain of Edmund Husserl’s theological ideas, simultaneously bearing on the question of the historicity of philosophy, which spans the entirety of Husserl’s oeuvre and has yet evaded closer scholarly attention. My paper combines the textual study of the passages in question with a survey of Husserl’s biography and a meticulous reconstruction of the relevant cultural-historical backgrounds—ranging from professional exegesis to general cultural-historical phenomena and to historical speculations by one of Husserl’s family friends and colleagues at the University of Halle—in order to obtain a useful concrete cross-section of the interconnected debates on Husserl’s views—and their possible phenomenological ramifications—on the history of religion, respectively the history of philosophy.

埃德蒙·胡塞尔的神学思想中有一种晦涩但反复出现的倾向，同时涉及哲学的历史性问题，它涵盖了胡塞尔的全部著作，但尚未引起学术界的密切关注。我的论文将对相关段落的文本研究与对胡塞尔传记的调查以及对相关文化历史背景的细致重建结合起来——从专业注释到一般文化历史现象，再到胡塞尔的一位家庭朋友和他的历史推测。哈勒大学的同事们——为了获得胡塞尔关于宗教史和哲学史的观点及其可能的现象学后果的相互关联的辩论的有用的具体横截面。
