 Note that while Husserl sometimes describes the field of pre-givenness in which pre-predicative and predicative acts are founded as “originarily passive” (cf. Husserl 1939, p. 300), he holds that this field is itself pre-constituted at an even more basic level of constitution, also sometimes (in another context) described as originarily or primarily passive. This more basic level is the “absolutely” originary one of (1) bodily and (2) temporal pre-reflective self-consciousness, at which (1) the spatial and (2) the temporal aspects of the field, respectively, constitute themselves (cf. Wu 2021, pp. 187f). This pre-constitution occurs automatically or “instinctively”, by “association” of “acquired” affective “drives” and teleologically directed “courses of drives (Triebverläufe)” rather than mere “(courses of) ideas”, such that “the ego as the subject of the drive […] is awakened” (transcr. A VII 13, p. 20, cited after Yamaguchi 1982, p. 57). If the subject then acquires an according affective “habituality”, then a new level of “secondary passivity” has been constituted (cf. Yamaguchi 1982, p. 56). For example, the above-mentioned colored dot is then ready to be perceived as located, at ‘this current moment’ of (internal) time, at ‘that position’ in ‘my own’ (egocentric) perceptual field; it “affects” the subject accordingly, thus serving as a visual stimulus. This perceptual field is regarded as ‘my own’ and ‘my current’ one in virtue of its pre-constitution in pre-reflective self-awareness, in which both the subject’s stream of consciousness and its living body (as it would appear in the “sphere of ownness”, i.e. independently of intersubjective experience) constitute themselves, notably by both internal time-consciousness (see Sections 4 and 6 above; cf. Held 1966) and the instinctive “originary kinestheses” (Husserliana, vol. XV, p. 385) or “kinesthetic syntheses” associated with the bodily movements involved in perception (cf. Landgrebe 1982b, pp. 81 ff; also cf. Dodd 1997 for a further analysis of Husserl’s phenomenology of the body, taking into account the rich material to be found in Ideas II, but also in Thing and Space and the 5th of the Cartesian Meditations; and Taipale 2014, stressing the importance of the living body for the different levels of constitution in Husserl; more recent literature on embodiment in Husserl, covering topics like the constitution of the ego’s own living body and the living bodies of others, also includes Behnke 1996; Heinämaa 2011, 2018; Moran and Janssen, eds., 2018; Carr 2019; and Jardine 2022, ch. 5f).
