Merleau-Ponty, The Philosopher and His Shadow: Ellie Anderson and David Peña-Guzmán

Описание: Dr. Ellie Anderson and Dr. David Peña-Guzmán, philosophy professors and co-hosts of Overthink podcast, discuss Maurice Merleau-Ponty's essay, “The Philosopher and his Shadow" from his book Signs. They discuss Merleau-Ponty's reflection on Edmund Husserl, the founder of phenomenology, and on what it means to inaugurate a tradition. They break down Merleau-Ponty's metaphor of the shadow and ask how it help us think about the legacy and influence of school-founding thinkers. How does Merleau-Ponty identify ambiguity within phenomenology and attempt to develop those unresolved questions in his own work on intentionality, intersubjectivity, and embodiment?
