I've read Phenomenology of Horror by Trigg awhile ago thanks to Library Genesis, but I would like to read through it again sometime.   Did you find anything in it particularly interesting?  I know you are intrigued with the malignant indifference of the universe.

As for the paper above, I am quite certain I have read this paper, but I will definitely read through it again today.

" [...] We will contrast Schopenhauer's concept of intentionality with its parallel in the works of the “father” of 20th century phenomenology, Edmund Husserl. This will hopefully
(a) show where Schopenhauer can help correct defects in Husserl's approach and
(b) tentatively point to where Schopenhauer can provide a fresh alternative to the better known critiques of Husserl promulgated by Martin Heidegger and Jacques Derrida, among others. "

Yes, father of phenomenology, indeed.

I like to think of Schopenhauer not only as the grandfather of the psychology of the unconscious (the gorts give Freud all the credit, of course); but also as the grandfather of phenomenology.

But, who has time for bickering over credits when we all so rapidly slip into the void?

Thanks for the link. 
Things They Will Never Tell YouArthur Schopenhauer has been the most radical and defiant of all troublemakers.
