Summary/Abstract: When discussing Husserl’s phenomenology, it is often divided into separate stages which haveno internal relationship between them. Husserl’s anti-psychologism can be opposed to phenomenologicalpsychology, anti-historicism to unfolding of inter-subjective historical worlds,the concept of phenomenology as strict science to criticism of science from the perspective oftranscendental self-experience, though by looking for contradictions, we will see only separateaspects of phenomenology and will not notice the general structure of phenomenology.In order to understand the meaning of Husserl’s phenomenology, it is necessary to find theunifying thread connecting different elements and levels of phenomenology. When discussingthe genesis of phenomenological philosophy, we should not emphasise differences betweenseparate stages, but understand what relates them. In this article the whole of Husserl’s phenomenologywas reconstructed following the common intention of phenomenology which Iunderstood as criticism of objectivism and naturalism. This intention can be found at all stagesof Husserl’s phenomenology.
