My aim is to show why Descartes can be considered an exemplary case within Husserl's investigations on history of philosophy. In the first part, I will consider the image of Descartes in Husserl's philosophy, which remains virtually unchanged until his late work. Then I will stress the ambivalence that runs through Husserl's evaluation of the French philosopher. In the second part of this article, after discussing the meaning of Husserl's Dichtung der Philosophiegeschichte and Crisis' zigzag method, I will debate the reasons behind Husserl's corrections to Descartes' thought. Finally, in the third session, I will show Descartes' function for the philosophy of the present.
