Far be it from me (to ask).
Ingarden was indeed a student of Husserl’s, and a friend and correspondent for a time with Stein, who was not only a student of Husserl but also his assistant. Ingarden wrote a three volume opus in Polish that is in the process of being translated into English, and he is known largely as a philosopher of literature. However, the opus was titled Controversy Over the Existence of the World (in which he takes issue with Husserl’s transcendental idealism). The translation of the first volume is dedicated to Izchak Miller and Dallas Willard. Willard was a professor of philosophy at USC and a writer of high esteem for the Christian world. But Ingarden himself must not have been religious as he castigated Edith Stein for becoming a cloistered Carmelite nun. There is a volume of Stein’s letters to Ingarden, but his side of the correspondence has been lost. And this friendship, in which they discussed many things, took place during the second world war, in which, of course, Stein was killed by the Nazis. I am thinking of getting the first volume, because it’s supposed to be good.

Off the top of my head? Not much at all, other than that he was a direct student of Husserl.
Funny you should ask. I dreamt last night about Husserl’s Cartesian Meditations. Don’t bother to ask. :)

What do you know of Roman Ingarden?
