presentation (Gegenwärtigung)

PRESENTATION (Gegenwärtigung). Husserl uses the term Gegenwärtigung to designate the subset of presentations (Vorstellungen) that present an object originally, that is, intuitively. Such a presentation intuitively presents (gegenwärtigt) an object by virtue of the fact that it comprises filled intentional moments originally and directly presenting (gegenwärtigend) a side or aspect of an object. Other moments in the act make present or re-present (vergegenwärtigt) those sides and aspects of the object that are not originally and directly present. Hence, while the concrete act or presentation directly and originally presents its concrete object, not every moment within the act originally makes present its correlate, that is, the side or aspect of the object to which it is directed. See also APPERCEPTION (Apperzeption); FULL INTENTION; FULLNESS; INTUITION; PERCEPTION (Perzeption); RE-PRESENTATION (Vergegenwärtigung).
