intentional object
INTENTIONAL OBJECT. The intentional object is the intended object just as it is intended. The intentional object is the object intended in a particular manner, that is, as having a particular significance or sense for the subject, and intended in a particular kind of act, that is, an act having a particular act-quality. The intentional object is distinguished from the intended object simpliciter, that is, the object apart from its particular manners of appearing and the object which is an identity appearing in manifold ways. Husserl later calls the intentional object the noema.
