Phenomenology??
Question: I've got to describe somebody I know from a phenomenological perspective.
What the hell does that mean?
Help!
Answers: Basically how somebody experiences something - I did a talk on auditory hallucinations - the physiology (what and why it happens within the brain/body) and the phenomenology (how the patient experiences/feels it) - so looking at things from their persepctive - how they experience it.
I think it means through your senses. Not through your mental cognition but through only your senses.
I would describe them as for their unusual or unique view

Its an essay regarding humanisitic/phenomenological perspective. Hope it helps.
Phenomenology is the study of structures of consciousness as experienced from the first-person point of view. The central structure of an experience is its intentionality, its being directed toward something, as it is an experience of or about some object. An experience is directed toward an object by virtue of its content or meaning (which represents the object) together with appropriate enabling conditions.
Phenomenology as a discipline is distinct from but related to other key disciplines in philosophy, such as ontology, epistemology, logic, and ethics. Phenomenology has been practiced in various guises for centuries, but it came into its own in the early 20th century in the works of Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty and others. Phenomenological issues of intentionality, consciousness, qualia, and first-person perspective have been prominent in recent philosophy of mind.
