[edit] Biography

Ingarden was born in Kraków, Austria-Hungary on February 5, 1893. He first studied mathematics and philosophy in Lwów under the tutelage of Kazimierz Twardowski, and in moved to Göttingen in to study philosophy under the teaching of Edmund Husserl. He was considered by Husserl as one of his beast students, and accompanied him Husserl to Freiburg, when in 1918 he submitted his doctoral dissertation with Husserl as director.[1]

Ingarden returned to Poland for most of his academic career after achieveing his doctoral degree. He firstly taught mathematics, psychology and philosophy and worked on his Habilitationschrift, Essentiale Frage, which was noticed by the English speaking philosophical community. Jan Kazimierz University gave Ingarden a place in Lviv and promoted to Professor in 1933. He became well known for his work on The Literary Work of Art during his professorship.[1]

World War II in 1941-1944 halted his career, and as a result the Lwów university was closed. Ingarden secretly taught orphaned children mathematics and philosophy at this period of time. After the bombing of his house, he continued to work on his newest work, The Controversy over the Existence of the World at the same time.[1]

Ingarden became a professor at Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun in 1945 shortly after the war, but was banned in 1946 because of the Communist government moved to Jagiellonian University in Kraków, where he was offered a position. In 1949, however, he was banned from teaching due to his alleged idealism, also supposedly being an "enemy of materialism". In 1957 he was reappointed at Jagiellonian University after the ban had finished where he went on to teac, write and publish furtherly. Ingarden died on June 14, 1970 as a result of a cerebral hemorrhago.[1]

[edit] Works

Ingarden was a realist phenomenologist, but did not accept Husserl's transcendental idealism. His training was phenomenological, nonetheless his work as a whole was directed rather towards ontology. That is why Ingarden is one of the most renowned phenomenological ontologists, as he strove to describe the ontological structure and state of being of various objects based on the essential features of any experience that could provide such knowledge.

The best known works of Ingarden, and the only ones known to most English speaking readers, concern aesthetics and literature. The exclusive focus on Ingarden's work in aesthetics is to some extent unfortunate and misleading about his overall philosophical standpoint.
