Merleau-Ponty's status as a philosopher of perception is
well-established, but his distinctive contributions to the
philosophy and phenomenology of language have yet to be fully
appreciated. Through detailed, clear, and accessible analyses of
Merleau-Ponty's views of linguistic meaning, expression, and
understanding, and by tracing the evolution and development of
these views throughout the course of his philosophical career,
Merleau-Ponty's Phenomenology of Language offers a global and
comprehensive picture of his engagement with the philosophy of
language. This book demonstrates that the phenomenology of language
is essential for grasping the meaning and motivations behind some
of Merleau-Ponty's most celebrated philosophical contributions. It
argues that his philosophy of language should take on a central
role in our appraisal of the development and basic goals of his
thought. And it suggests that the success of phenomenology's return
to the 'things themselves' must be judged not only by the evidence
of intuition, but also by the labour of expression.
