本課程從廣義的現象學角度出發，檢視人我關係如何形塑我們的經驗。有意願選課的同學應注意：目前對於課程的規劃仍有可能變動，因此同學務必出席第一堂課，以確切掌握具體課程內容。按照目前規劃，本課程著重在現象學與英美哲學的對話，因此 我們將不會針對現象學的經典文本進行討論。反之，我們將研讀當代學者的著作，考慮這些學者如何結合現象學傳統內外的想法，藉以分析我們的經驗以及他人在其中的 角色。這些經驗包含了幻聽、思覺失調、焦慮、創傷、同理心、羞恥等等。釐清這些經驗有助於我們進行 Käufer 與 Chemero 眼中「最重要、最富有成效的現象學核心 分支」 (the central, most important, and most productive strain of phenomenology) 所進行的主要工作，即「說明是什麼結構使得共享的客觀世界能夠被理解」 (to provide an account of the structures that make a shared, objective world intelligible) (2021: 2)*。這種對於現象學的觀點將是本課程所嘗試探索的觀點。
同學亦應注意：本課程雖歸類在善與義務群組，但我們將不會直接討論倫理學議題。之所以如此歸類，原因是本課程所討論的經驗具有潛在的重要倫理意涵。藉由討論這些經驗本身，本課程希望提供一些理論基礎，鼓勵同學在日後進一步思考現象學與倫理學的可能連結。但本課程將無法涵蓋對於這些可能連結的討論。
*Käufer, Stephen, and Anthony Chemero. 2021. Phenomenology: An Introduction. Second Edition. Medford, MA: Polity.This course takes a broad phenomenological perspective and examines how relationships between people and ourselves shape our experiences. Students who are willing to choose courses should note that the current course plans are still subject to change, so students must attend the first class to accurately grasp the specific course content. As currently planned, this course focuses on the dialogue between phenomenology and British and American philosophy, so we will not discuss classic texts on phenomenology. Instead, we will look at the work of contemporary scholars and consider how they combine ideas from within and outside the phenomenological tradition to analyze our experience and the role of others in it. These experiences include auditory hallucinations, schizophrenia, anxiety, trauma, empathy, shame, and more. Clarifying these experiences helps us do what Käufer and Chemero see as "the central, most important, and most productive strain of phenomenology"—that is, "telling what To provide an account of the structures that make a shared, objective world intelligible” (2021: 2)*. This perspective on phenomenology will be what this course attempts to explore.
Students should also note that although this course is classified in the Goodness and Duty group, we will not directly discuss ethical issues. The reason for this classification is that the experiences discussed in this course have potentially important ethical implications. By discussing these experiences themselves, this course hopes to provide some theoretical foundations and encourage students to further think about the possible connections between phenomenology and ethics in the future. However, this course will not cover a discussion of these possible connections.
