Phenomenology, together with Marxism, pragmatism, and analytic philosophy, dominated philosophy in the twentieth century‿and Edmund Husserl is usually thought to have been the first to develop the concept. His views influenced a variety of important later thinkers, such as Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty, who eventually turned phenomenology away from questions of knowledge.
