Phenomenology of Perception by Maurice Merleau-Ponty
$34.00
Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s Phenomenology of Perception is a major work of twentieth-century philosophy examining the body, consciousness and the structures of lived experience. Challenging approaches that treat perception as merely mechanical or intellectual, Merleau-Ponty argues that the body is central to how we encounter space, other people, language and the world.
This Routledge Classics edition presents the English translation of the work first published in French in 1945. It is widely studied in phenomenology, existentialism, philosophy of mind, psychology and the humanities.
