Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1908-1961) was described by Paul Ricoeur as
'the greatest of the French phenomenologists'. The new essays in
this volume examine the full scope of Merleau-Ponty's philosophy,
from his central and abiding concern with the nature of perception
and the bodily constitution of intentionality to his reflections on
science, nature, art, history, and politics. The authors explore
the historical origins and context of his thought as well as its
continuing relevance to contemporary work in phenomenology,
philosophy of mind, cognitive science, biology, art criticism and
political and social theory. What emerges is a fresh image of
Merleau-Ponty as a deep and original thinker whose philosophical
importance has been underestimated, in part owing to the influence
of intellectual movements such as existentialism and structuralism,
into which his work could not be easily assimilated. New readers
will find this the most convenient and accessible guide to
Merleau-Ponty currently available.
