Abstract

This article investigates Scheler’s reception of Plato focusing on the concept of epochè. The aim of the analysis is to demonstrate how Scheler’s interpretation of Plato allows him to overcome Husserl’s rationalism. According to this, after analyzing in depth the Husserlian phenomenological method, the article tackles the notion of “love”, a key idea for grasping Plato’s, as well as Scheler’s notion of philosophy -being the latter heritor of the former in this particular issue. Thus, it will try to show how Scheler’s philosophy offers a more appropriate answer to the phenomenological question, and, at the same time, an exhaustive -namely “existential”- consideration of the investigated phenomena.
