The project of renewing phenomenology proposed by Claude Romano is at the same time an attempt to save it. His works have had an enormous impact on phenomenology in France and beyond. They have also been recognised by the French Academy, which awarded Romano the Grand Prix Moron in 2010 for the totality of his phenomenological works, and in 2020. Grand Prix de Philosophie for his entire body of work. His research is developing in two directions. The first is the synthesis of the phenomenological method. The second is his own idea of phenomenology, which involves interpreting experience as an event. According to Romano, the first step towards saving phenomenology lies already in opening it up to other influences and confronting it with the leading currents of contemporary thought and at the same time reintegrating it into the philosophical debate. However, it is only the turn towards the realism of the lifeworld that is at the heart of the anti-Copernican revolution postulated by Romano and is the aforementioned salvation for phenomenology. It therefore also constitutes the central problem of this article.
