Husserl's account of internal time-consciousness grounds retention and protention in the living present, making repeatability a phenomenological achievement rather than a transcendental necessity.

Protention(Husserl's phenomenology of internal time-consciousness)
Husserl's term for the anticipatory or 'awaiting' phase of consciousness that is directed toward the approaching future, included within the living present.
Retention(Husserl's phenomenology of internal time-consciousness; central to Derrida's argument in Voice and Phenomenon)
Husserl's term for the primary memory of the just-past that is folded back into present perception; paradoxically classified by Husserl as both a kind of perception (included in the present) and a kind of non-perception (different from the strict now).
Transcendental necessity(contrasted with cultural assumptions in this statement)
Something that must be true in order for any human experience or knowledge to be possible at all—a basic requirement built into how minds work.
repeatability(Grounded in memory of the recent past and anticipation of the near future; constitutes one of two agencies present in every experience.)
The property whereby what is experienced in the present can be immediately recalled and thereby anticipated to recur.
