Abstract

Our interest focuses on the analysis of the will from Husserlian phenomenology, aiming to highlight the structure of consciousness rela-ted to its stance on valuing and willing. This approach will reveal the specific domain of volitional acts of a subject immersed in the flow of life that shapes their being within the sociocultural horizon that configures and guides their experience of the world. Husserl envisions the possibility of grasping the me-aning of subjectivity itself under the sign of duty, which is nothing other than the exercise of self-awareness that engages its transcenden-tal being, as a concrete being, in the rational disposition of recognizing itself as a free and ethically capable subject, able to pursue what is best for itself in accordance with the practi-cal limitations it experiences in the appercep-tion of its surrounding world.
