Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Ludwig Wittgenstein are two of the most
important philosophers of the twentieth century, yet their work is
generally regarded as standing in contrast to one another. However,
as this outstanding collection demonstrates they both reject a
Cartesian picture of the mind and sought to offer an alternative
that does justice to the role played by bodily action, language,
and our membership within a community that shares a way of life.
This is the first collection to compare and contrast the work of
these two major philosophers. Fundamental topics and problems
discussed include the role of community in their philosophies;
Merleau-Ponty on description and depiction and Wittgenstein on
saying and doing; the role of language; their treatment of
expression; their relation to the philosophy of the Vienna Circle;
solipsism; and rule-following. It is essential reading for anyone
studying the work of Wittgenstein and Merleau-Ponty, as well as
those interested in phenomenology, philosophy of mind, and
philosophy of language.
