Although Scheler later criticised Husserl's idealistic logical approach and proposed instead a " phenomenology of love ", he states that he remained " deeply indebted " to Husserl throughout his work.

Heidegger later claimed that his relationship with Husserl had already become strained after Husserl publicly " settled accounts " with Heidegger and Max Scheler in the early 1930s.

" In various ways, German Idealism after Kant, and major later figures such Nietzsche, Bergson, Husserl, Scheler, and Heidegger, remain pre-occupied with this problem of the justice of the metaphysical demands or urges of reason.

" In 1954, Karol Wojtyła, later Pope John Paul II, defended his doctoral thesis on " An Evaluation of the Possibility of Constructing a Christian Ethics on the Basis of the System of Max Scheler.

During World War I ( 1914 – 1918 ), Scheler was initially drafted but later discharged because of astigmia of the eyes.

In 1927 at a conference in Darmstadt, near Frankfurt, arranged by Hermann Keyserling, Scheler delivered a lengthy lecture, entitled ' Man's Particular Place ' ( Die Sonderstellung des Menschen ), published later in much abbreviated form as Die Stellung des Menschen im Kosmos ' Man's Position in the Cosmos '.

Under the influence of this doctrine, and of Phenomenology, the Hungarian-born German sociologist Karl Mannheim ( 1893 – 1947 ) gave impetus to the growth of the sociology of knowledge with his Ideologie und Utopie ( 1929, translated and extended in 1936 as Ideology and Utopia ), although the term had been introduced five years earlier by the co-founder of the movement, the German philosopher, phenomenologist and social theorist Max Scheler ( 1874 – 1928 ), in Versuche zu einer Soziologie des Wissens ( 1924, Attempts at a Sociology of Knowledge ).

He studied at the Universities of Cologne, Bonn, and Freiburg, under Max Scheler, Edmund Husserl, Martin Heidegger and Oskar Becker during his four years there.

Scheler, who was at Göttingen when Husserl taught there, was one of the original few editors of the journal Jahrbuch für Philosophie und Phänomenologische Forschung ( 1913 ).

Along with future collaborators like Walter Benjamin, Max Horkheimer, Ernst Bloch, Adorno was profoundly disillusioned by the ease with which Germany's intellectual and spiritual leaders — among them Max Weber, Max Scheler, Ernst Simmel, as well as his friend Siegfried Kracauer — came out in support of the war.

Husserl's view was based on aspects of the work of Franz Brentano and was developed further by philosophers such as Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Max Scheler, Edith Stein, Dietrich von Hildebrand and Emmanuel Levinas.

It was created in 1939 by Armin Scheler, under a New Deal commission from the Treasury Department.

Max Ferdinand Scheler ( August 22, 1874 – May 19, 1928 ) was a German philosopher known for his work in phenomenology, ethics, and philosophical anthropology.

Scheler developed further the philosophical method of the founder of phenomenology, Edmund Husserl, and was called by José Ortega y Gasset " the first man of the philosophical paradise.

Max Scheler was born in Munich, Germany, August 22, 1874, to a Lutheran father and an Orthodox Jewish mother.

At Munich, Husserl's own teacher Franz Brentano was still lecturing, and Scheler joined the Phenomenological Circle in Munich, centred around M. Beck, Th.

Scheler was never a student of Husserl's and overall, their relationship remained strained.

While his first marriage, to Amalie von Dewitz, had ended in divorce, Scheler married Märit Furtwängler in 1912, who was the sister of the noted conductor Wilhelm Furtwängler.

Scheler was the only scholar of rank of the then German intelligentsia who gave warning in public speeches delivered as early as 1927 of the dangers of the growing Nazi movement and Marxism.

However, the subordination of the value of the individual person to this mind-set was sufficient reason for Max Scheler to denounce it and to outline and predict a whole new era of culture and values, which he called ' The World-Era of Adjustment '.

Scheler also advocated an international university to be set up in Switzerland and was at that time supportive of programs such as ' continuing education ' and of what he seems to have been the first to call a ' United States of Europe '.

When the editors of Geisteswissenschaften invited Scheler ( about 1913 / 14 ) to write on the then developing philosophical method of phenomenology, Scheler indicated a reservation concerning the task because he could only report his own viewpoint on phenomenology and there was no " phenomenological school " defined by universally accepted theses.

Scheler planned to publish his major work in Anthropology in 1929, but the completion of such project was interrupted by Scheler's premature death in 1928.

Jean Auguste Ulric Scheler ( 1819 – 1890 ) was a Belgian philologist.

His father, a German, was chaplain to King Leopold I of Belgium, and Jean Scheler, after studying at Bonn and Munich, became King's librarian, and professor at the Universite Libre de Bruxelles ( ULB ).

Part of the editor team of the journal Stimmen der Zeit in München ( 1922-1941 ), Przywara, a Jesuit, was strongly influenced by Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Newman, and the phenomenological philosophy of Edmund Husserl and Max Scheler.

He tried to contact individuals like Matthias Scheler and Urban Müller which was known to maintain Aminet, but to no avail.

" Scheler never agreed with Husserl that phenomenology is a method in the strict sense, but rather " an attitude of spiritual seeing ... something which otherwise remains hidden ...." Calling phenomenology a method fails to take seriously the phenomenological domain of original experience: the givenness of phenomenological facts ( essences or values as a priori ) " before they have been fixed by logic ," and prior to assuming a set of criteria or symbols, as is the case in the empirical and human sciences as well as other ( modern ) philosophies which tailor their methods to those of the sciences.

Furthermore, by calling love a movement, Scheler hopes to dispel the interpretation that love and hate are only reactions to felt values rather than the very ground for the possibility of value-givenness ( or value-concealment ).

Natural and scientific attitudes ( Einstellung ) are both phenomenologically counterpositive and hence must be sublated in the advancement of the real phenomenological reduction which, in the eyes of Scheler, has more the shapes of an allround ascesis ( Askese ) rather than a mere logical procedure of suspending the existential judgments.

From 1910 to 1911, Scheler briefly lectured at the Philosophical Society of Göttingen, where he made and renewed acquaintances with Theodore Conrad, Hedwig Conrad-Martius ( an ontologist and Conrad's wife ), Moritz Geiger, Jean Hering, Roman Ingarden, Dietrich von Hildebrand, Husserl, Alexandre Koyré, and Adolf Reinach.

Max Weber ), its very mind-set, however, is argued by Scheler to have had its origin in modern, subconscious angst as expressed in increasing needs for financial and other securities, for protection and personal safeguards as well as for rational manageability of all entities.

The movement and act of love is important for philosophy for two reasons: ( 1 ) If philosophy, as Scheler describes it, hearkening back to the Platonic tradition, is a participation in a " primal essence of all essences " ( Urwesen ), it follows that for this participation to be achieved one must incorporate within oneself the content or essential characteristic of the primal essence.

In 1924, Man and History ( Mensch und Geschichte ), Scheler gave some preliminary statements on the range and goal of philosophical anthropology.

However despite his influence ( on the work of philosophers Max Scheler, Ernst Cassirer, Martin Heidegger, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Georges Canguilhem, Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari ( in their A Thousand Plateaus ), for example ) he is still not widely known, and his books are mostly out of print in German and in English.

He also read the works of Dilthey, Husserl, and Max Scheler.

Husserl's conception of phenomenology has been criticized and developed not only by himself but also by his students Edith Stein and Martin Heidegger, by existentialists, such as Max Scheler, Nicolai Hartmann, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Jean-Paul Sartre, and by other philosophers, such as Paul Ricoeur, Emmanuel Levinas, and sociologists Alfred Schütz and Eric Voegelin.

* Max Scheler ( 1874 – 1928 ) developed further the phenomenological method of Edmund Husserl and extended it to include also a reduction of the scientific method.

Homo faber ( Latin for " Man the Creator " in reference to homo sapiens meaning " wise man ") is a philosophical concept articulated by Hannah Arendt and Max Scheler that refers to humans as controlling the environment through tools.

It is important to mention, however, that this primal essence is not an objectifiable entity whose possible correlate is knowledge ; thus, even if philosophy is always concerned with knowing, as Scheler would concur, nevertheless, reason itself is not the proper participative faculty by which the greatest level of knowing is achieved.

The term Wertsein or value-being is used by Scheler in many contexts, but his untimely death prevented him from working out an axiological ontology.

Scheler argues that is not enough to just reject such traditions, as did Nietzsche with the Judeo-Christian religion by saing that " God is dead "; these traditions have impregnated all parts of our culture, and therefore still determine a great deal of the way of thinking even of those that don't believe in the Christian God.

Scheler says that philosophical anthropology must address the totality of man, while it must be informed by the specialized sciences like biology, psychology, sociology.

Philosophically he was influenced by Henri Bergson and phenomenology of Edmund Husserl and Max Scheler.
