Philosophy and Non-Philosophy
Since Merleau-Ponty
Edited, and with an Introduction, by Hugh J. Silverman
(Published: 1988)
(Northwestern Univ. Press,1997)
| Republished in 1997 by Northwestern University Press, Philosophy and
Non-Philosophy Since Merleau-Ponty can be read both as an homage to Merleau-Ponty and as
an inquiry into the developments, directions, and ruptures of continental philosophy since
Merleau-Ponty's death. Each of the contributions focuses on the question of the relation
between "philosophy" and "non-philososphy" developing in different
ways what is meant by this distinction. Included in the volume is a translation of
Merleau-Ponty's last lecture course at the College de France (1960-61) and essays on
Merleau-Ponty's relation to the work of Sartre, Barthes, Heidegger, Lacan, Levinas,
Deleuze, Foucault and others. An extensive research bibliography completes the volume. |
