The term life-world, which is introduced in parallel with topics such as the “natural concept of the world” and the “environment world”, is of great importance in Husserl’s later philosophy. It is a very complex and multi-meaningful concept that has led to different and often contradictory interpretations. Husserl examined this concept in the book Crisis from three aspects: worldly (mundan), ontological and transcendental, and in this way, it takes on different meanings, which are summarized as follows: the life-world is 1) the world of natural position; 2) the intersubjective world of action, which includes all the things that man deals with in everyday action; 3) a world given to perception; 4) the spiritual and historical world of culture; 5) the world precedes science (pre-science), which is in opposition to objectivism, especially modern objectivism, which is associated with the development of the natural sciences; 6) one of the ways to enter the transcendental realm. This article deals with the relations of the life-world with science, culture, and the transcendental realm.

This paper is a reflection on the interaction between metaphysics and science that has been existed since the pre-modern epoch, an example of which was actualized in Aristotle's system of metaphysics and science. Yet, this interaction was gradually undermined by the advent of scientific revolution especially the classic period of science in the 17th and 18th century in modern epoch. In the 19th century, the appearances of positivism caused metaphysics lose its meaningfulness and laid it aside from the realm of episteme and then put it in the sphere of tastes, emotions and passions. In the 20th century, philosophies and metaphysical systems, in the common sense, failed to direct sciences and claimed a sort of independence from sciences through raising technical problems in fields of language and logic. However, this independence supported metaphysics and philosophy versus techno-science, in the meanwhile metaphysics lost another main role, the raising rationality in the field of sciences. This article explains this problem after a brief introduction and argues that pursuit of this issue is not a technical-academic problem but a matter of human life
