Diskusní studie Jevy – věci – situace K fenomenologické ontologii Pavla Kouby Robert Kanócz Přírodovědecká fakulta Univerzity Karlovy, Praha robertkanocz@gmail.com Pavlu Koubovi k jubileu Abstract: Phenomena – Tings – Situations On the Phenomenological Ontology of Pavel Kouba In this discussion study, the author looks into the articles that Pavel Kouba has devot- ed to phenomenological ontology over the past twenty-three years. Te study’s origin, in the immediate sense, can be found in Kouba’s recent article in issue 57 of Refexe, titled “Fenomenologie na křižovatce. Zamyšlení nad prací Elišky Fulínové La concep- tion phénoménologique de l’espace” [“Phenomenology at the Crossroads. Refections on Eliška Fulínová’s La phénoménologique de l’espace”]. In the study presented here, the author summarizes Kouba’s project and then draws attention to a diferent path of phenomenology than that followed by either Fulínová or Kouba (before their paths parted). Tis diferent, possible phenomenology gives up on the thinking of the na- ture of an entity’s being, i. e. ontology, and simply focuses on the appearing situation and its transformations. Te author indicates that which is, for the movement of these transformations, characteristic, and notes on the margins that movement of such a nature can be well described in Czech by the word osud [“destiny”]. Keywords: Pavel Kouba, phenomenology, ontology, situation, destiny DOI: https://doi.org/10.46854/fc.2023.2r.325 Filosofcký časopis ročník 71 2023/2 325
