quote:

" one of the most important and continuously active contemporary phenomenologists"

Surely one might as easily say in truth, " one of the most peculiar and continuously self-serving of those claiming to be phenomenologists"

This person is one of the oddities of intellectual life, and yet this article conveys none of this, which could be ascertained simply by perusing a more complete list of titles even at amazon.com or by having visited her table at any philosophy congress which she attended in past years.

An "important and continuously active contemporary phenomenologist" brings many people to mind across many languages - but not A-T T.

Note her one, sole mention as an "editor" at the standard reference site plato.stanford.edu

Who has written a phenomenology of hyperbole ?

As with many biographies, it would be very useful to have a list of the languages which the subject knew in order to help appreciate the cultures to which he/she had direct access and made direct contributions to. POR613 (talk) 18:42, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

Vatican dismisses BBC documentary on Pope John Paul II relationship

According to the BBC doku, there were common walks and skiing ; Anna-Teresa T. visited him one day before he died. Several hundred letters and private photos exist.

The BBC doku is broadcasted 15 February 2016 and on Arte.tv one day later. --Neun-x (talk) 20:20, 14 February 2016 (UTC)

Denial
I changed the sentence about her and the Vatican's denials of a relationship, as it implied that her denial was provoked by the BBC documentary. Of course, she had already been dead for two years by then. BTW, I handled the production of many volumes of the Analecta Husserliana series of which she was the Editor. I wish I'd kept her letters now! (I never understood a word of her philosophical writings.) PhilUK (talk) 15:20, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
