(The phenomenologists were concerned to show that essentia...)
The phenomenologists were concerned to show that essential structures of being, knowable by rational insight, are found far more abundantly than is commonly thought. In his great monograph Reinach shows that in the civil law, where one usually thinks that there are only legal structures of human devising, there are in fact many essential structures, such as the structure of promising or of owning. These pre-positive structures, which are something different from the moral norms relevant to the positive law, provide the civil law with a foundation that can be known by philosophical insight.

1905Adolf Reinach became a member of the Protestant church in 1916. Before his death he said that he would only teach philosophy in the future as a means of leading men to God.
Adolf Reinach was an outstanding exponent of the kind of realist phenomenology inspired by Husserl's Logical Investigations. He stated that the phenomenological method is to teach us how to see things which we have a tendency to overlook in our everyday practical attitude, and to see them in their unique whatness or essence without the customary attempts to reduce them to the smallest possible number, an attempt which can lead only to impoverishment and falsification of the phenomena. Reinach said that we can have direct access to essences in a non-sensory kind of seeing or intuition. He developed his theory of the phenomenological a priori. According to Reinach, material a priori states of affairs and essences exist independently of the contingent minds that may apprehend them and of the individual objects that may instantiate them. Reinach is also credited for the development of a forerunner to the theory of speech acts by Austin and Searle.
Adolf Reinach was a good man, well-respected and adored by all who knew him.
Adolf Reinach married Anna Stettenheimer on September 14, 1912.
