This paper provides a brief introduction to the ideas of Latvian philosopher Teodors Celms, who was one of Husserl’s students and raised some interesting early criticism on phenomenology. Specifically, Celms was interested on the problem of intersubjectivity, as he considered that the phenomenological method results in a solipsism which hinders access to knowledge of other consciousness. This paper presents Celms’ critique and Husserl’s answer to the issue posed by his Latvian pupil.
