Abstract
This paper has a twofold objective. The historical goal is to provide the first exploration of the thought of Maximilian Beck, a forgotten figure of the early Munich circle of phenomenology, with a special focus on his theory of intentionality and consciousness and based on his unpublished legacy preserved at the Bavarian State Library.
More systematically, we will strive to show to what extent Beck proposes a rehabilitation of realism on the basis of what he calls realistic perspectivism (which he understands also as a re-interpretation of the Husserlian concept of adumbration).
