Combining Maurice Merleau-Ponty's course notes on Husserl's Origin
of Geometry, his "Course Summary," related texts, and critical
essays by each of the co-translators, this collection provides a
unique and welcome glimpse both into Merleau-Ponty's nuanced
reading of Husserl's famed late writings and into his persistent
effort to track the very genesis of truth through the incarnate
idealization of language.
In his notes, Merleau-Ponty focuses primarily on Husserl's
well-known "Origin of Geometry" text from the Crisis and on another
of his posthumous texts on the phenomenological role of the Earth
as Earth-ground. Both of these essays lead to what Merleau-Ponty
called in a working note a "transcendental history"-an analysis of
a geographical inscription of history. Likewise, Merleau-Ponty is
concerned in these notes with the philosophical and ontological
implications of the origin of idealization, the passage from
passivity to activity, the interrelation between perception and
rationality--or the intertwining of nature and logos. Because of
the central role these themes played in Merleau-Ponty's thought,
this volume provides an important supplement to Merleau-Ponty's
philosophy and his relation to Husserl for the English-speaking
reader. With the translators' essays connecting Merleau-Ponty to
Derrida and Levinas as well as to Husserl, the volume should become
a valuable sourcebook, an indispensable stopping point on a
scholar's journey into the thought of Husserl, Merleau-Ponty,
Derrida, and Levinas.
