Austrian Philosophy: The Legacy of Franz Brentano

Focusing on the concept of intentionality, this extensive study explores the philosophical legacy of Franz Brentano and his school, highlighting their unique approach to the relationship between mind and objects. Unlike the analytic movement, Brentano's followers integrated psychological insights with ontological investigations, influencing fields like phenomenology and Gestalt psychology. The book also examines connections with early Austrian economics and the impact of Brentano's students on Polish philosophy, providing a comprehensive overview of Austrian philosophy from the 1870s to 1938.
