He has spent over a decade at the University and made significant contributions to both the University and the local community during his stay in Hong Kong. He has always been energetic in class and passionate about what he is teaching. Furthermore, if you knew how much administrative works he was also burdened with, you would truly be awed by his excellent teaching performance and impressive amount of research output. One of his most notable works over the years in Hong Kong is Cinema, Philosophy, Bergman: On Film as Philosophy in which he rebuts some of the exaggerated claims of "film as philosophy" and provides an alternative moderate account to the thesis. The work has made important contribution to aesthetics, philosophy of film, film studies and the studies of the Swedish film director, Ingmar Bergman. To acknowledge his retirement from Lingnan, I decided to interview him before his departure to rejoin his family in Scandinavia. The interview questions range from his background to academic interests, issues in aesthetics and problems regarding the current tertiary education.

Research paper thumbnail of Feeling Pain and Pleasure: Edmund Husserl’s Account of the Sensory Feelings in the Logical Investigations (MA Thesis)

The central pillar for Edmund Husserl's philosophy is the doctrine that "consciousness is always ... more The central pillar for Edmund Husserl's philosophy is the doctrine that "consciousness is always a consciousness of something." That is to say; our consciousness is an experience of an object. Accordingly, Edmund Husserl’s aim in the Logical Investigations (1901. Hereafter, LU) is to provide an account to answer “what it means to be conscious.” There are naturally many types of experiences; among them, there are perception, imagination, remembrance, etc. In Husserl’s theory of intentionality, perception is directed at perceived objects; imagination is an imagining of something, and memory is the remembering of a past event. The kind of aboutness or directedness towards something is considered by Husserl to be the essential structure of consciousness. He terms consciousness’ directedness towards something, “intentionality.” When Husserl asks the question regarding intentionality, ultimately, Husserl is attempting to uncover the essential structures of our experience. However, Husserl also recognizes in the LU, that there is a kind of experience in which it appears not possessing any directedness or intentionality. We can find in Section 15 of the "Fifth Investigation" that Husserl tries to investigate this group of non-intentional feelings. Among this group of experiences, it seems that some feelings are of or for something, while some feelings are not. The former kind of feeling includes our fear of a fearful dog, our love for someone or something and our hatred towards something, etc., which are intentional experiences; whereas, the latter kind of feeling encompasses, notably, sensory-pain (sinnliche Schmerz) and sensory-pleasure (sinnliche Lüste), which are considered as non-intentional experiences. The latter group of feelings is usually labelled as sensory feelings. Husserl, in his LU, adopts the terminology of feeling-sensations (Gefühlsempfindungen)
from Carl Stumpf to refer to this particular group of sensory feeling. As oppose to feeling-sensations, there are feeling-acts (Gefühlsakte) referring to the group of intentional feelings, which is a term coined by Franz Brentano. Interestingly, if Husserl recognises that there are non-intentional feeling-sensations, this recognition poses a threat to the doctrine that consciousness is essentially intentional. In other words, the sensory feelings as non-intentional feelings would undermine the central pillar of his philosophy. The problem is then; how is it possible for Husserl to hold a view that there is non-intentional experience while upholding his central tenet of consciousness is always a consciousness of something? The question also leads to other related issues, such as what does Husserl means by intentionality? What is the essential structure of an intentional experience? What is the nature of sensory-pain or sensory-pleasure
as feeling-sensations? If feeling-sensations are non-intentional, do they have any role in our intentional experience? What are the objects of these experiences if they are to be intentional at all? I argue in this paper that Husserl gives an account of feeling-sensations that would provide answers to these questions in Part (b) in Section 15 of the "Fifth Investigation."
Accordingly, then, the overarching goal of the present paper is to investigate Husserl’s resolution to his recognition of feeling-sensations as non-intentional feelings in the LU. To do so, I will provide an exegetical reading and interpretation of Part (b) of Section 15 of the “Fifth Investigations” in which Husserl provides an explication of the nature and the role of sensory feelings or feeling-sensations, which should be seen as an attempt to resolve the problem.
