Acknowledgements

The present book is the revised version of a study that was originally presented as a doctoral thesis. My acknowledgments are due to the numerous friends and colleagues for their support and guidance during the preparation of this work.

My gratitude goes to Professor Ronald Bruzina (1936-2019) for first showing me an entirely different dimension in philosophy.

For my years at Duquesne University and beyond, I am especially grateful to Lanei Rodemeyer for teaching me Husserl; I am also grateful to Frederick Evans, Ronald Polansky, Daniel Selcer, Kelly Arenson, Jeffrey McCurry, and Joan Thompson for their guidance and assistance in many ways; I am also indebted to Matthew Yaw and Paul Zipfel for their companionship and conversation. I should also like to thank Anthony Steinbock for accepting to be part of the dissertation committee. My gratitude is especially due to David Hooks and Michael Kelly for their unremitting friendship, generosity, and encouragement. A special thank you goes also to Ann Begler and Judith Vollmer for their wholehearted friendship and breadth of mind.

Whether in print or in person, I have matured much about my understanding of philosophy from Gaetano Chiurazzi at the University of Turin and Jan-Ivar Lindén at the University of Heidelberg.

Grazie ai miei genitori e alle mie sorelle per avermi accompagnato con affetto e supporto durante il mio percorso nella filosofia. Lastly, thank you to Hanna, whose lithe mind has pricked many a bubble of mine and whose love shows me the way every day.
