Phenomenology or Deconstruction? challenges traditional
understandings of the relationship between phenomenology and
deconstruction through new readings of the work of Maurice
Merleau-Ponty, Paul Ricur and Jean-Luc Nancy. A constant dialogue
with Jacques Derrida's engagement with phenomenological themes
provides the impetus to establishing a new understanding of 'being'
and 'presence' that exposes significant blindspots inherent in
traditional readings of both phenomenology and deconstruction. In
reproducing neither a stock phenomenological reaction to
deconstruction nor the routine deconstructive reading of
phenomenology, Christopher Watkin provides a fresh assessment of
the possibilities for the future of phenomenology, along with a new
reading of the deconstructive legacy. Through detailed studies of
the philosophy of Merleau-Ponty, Ricur and Nancy, he shows how a
phenomenological tradition much wider and richer than Husserlian or
Heideggerean thought alone can take account of Derrida's critique
of ontology and yet still hold a commitment to the
ontological.
This new reading of being and presence fundamentally re-draws our
understanding of the relation of deconstruction and phenomenology,
and provides the first sustained discussion of the possibilities
and problems for any future 'deconstructive phenomenology'.
