Merleau-Ponty and the Paradoxes of Expression offers a
comprehensive reading of the philosophical work of Maurice
Merleau-Ponty, a central figure in 20th-century continental
philosophy. By establishing that the paradoxical logic of
expression is Merleau-Ponty's fundamental philosophical gesture,
this book ties together his diverse work on perception, language,
aesthetics, politics and history in order to establish the
ontological position he was developing at the time of his sudden
death in 1961. Donald A. Landes explores the paradoxical logic of
expression as it appears in both Merleau-Ponty's explicit
reflections on expression and his non-explicit uses of this logic
in his philosophical reflection on other topics, and thus
establishes a continuity and a trajectory of his thought that
allows for his work to be placed into conversation with
contemporary developments in continental philosophy. The book
offers the reader a key to understanding Merleau-Ponty's subtle
methodology and highlights the urgency and relevance of his
research into the ontological significance of expression for
today's work in art and cultural theory.
