Phenomenology originated in the tradition of transcendentalist philosophy, but very soon - already in the works of the founder of phenomenology, Edmund Husserl - it focused on the issue of the body to the extent previously unheard of in transcendentalist philosophy. Crucially, phenomenology never considered a body to be just a kind of tool or mean to be used by spirit or the soul; rather, the body was analyzed as imbued with an intentionality of its own. Already in Husserl’s works, the most basic structures of our thinking, even the basic logical principles, can be gradually traced back to their roots in bodily experience, perception, or sensation. Later phenomenological philosophy has developed these initial insights in a more detailed manner, and a rich philosophy of the body has arisen in the phenomenological tradition.
