Abstract

Speaking of Ontology and Phenomenology, as well as of Self and Community, requires a preliminary methodological clarification that will allow us to understand how is it possible to conduct the analysis on these two different, although nonetheless complementary, levels. In the introduction of her essay on the ontology of Ontologyof communities [aut]Walther, Gerda says that Ontology aims at tracking down the ultimate sense, the Essence of every objectivity broadly speaking, whereas Phenomenology investigates Data in pure Consciousness and its manifestations, which are inevitably marked by the same Essence.
