Devoted primarily to a close reading of the French philosopher's magnum opus, \u003ci\u003ePhenomenology of Perception\u003c\/i\u003e, the course begins with a detailed analysis of \u003ci\u003eThe Structure of Behavior\u003c\/i\u003e. The central topics considered in the lectures include the functions of the phenomenological body; beyond realism and idealism; the structures of the lived world; spatiality, temporality, language, sexuality; and perception and knowledge. Sallis illuminates Merleau-Ponty's first two works and offers a thread to follow through developments in his later essays. Merleau-Ponty's notion of the primacy of perception and his claim that \"the end of a philosophy is the account of its beginning\" are woven throughout the lectures. For Sallis's part, these lectures are foundational for his extended engagement with Merleau-Ponty's \u003ci\u003eThe Visible and the Invisible\u003c\/i\u003e, which was published in Sallis's \u003ci\u003ePhenomenology and the Return to Beginnings\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Indiana University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52525227540760,"sku":"9780253040442","price":49.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-logos-of-the-sensible-world-merleau-pontys-phenomenological-philosophy-hardback-9780253040442","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
