Unconscious and Phenomenology in Husserl

This article tries to offer a global vision of the Husserlnian conception of the unconscious. To this end, it is shown how the static, genetic and generative analyzes reveal various strata that act with their backs to the awake consciousness. Inattention essentially accompanies intention, just as absence is inseparable from presence. Far from being transparent to itself, consciousness comes from an unconscious background and, far from being unitary, it is inseparable from an Ich-Spaltung that enables the birth canal from which experience comes.
