{"product_id":"phenomenological-ontology-of-breathing","title":"Phenomenological Ontology of Breathing","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book studies the phenomenological ontology of breathing. It investigates breathing and air as a question of phenomenological philosophy and looks at phenomenological questions concerning respiratory methodology, ontological experience of respiration, respiratory spirituality and respiratory embodiment. Drawing on the ideas of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Gaston Bachelard, Martin Heidegger, Edmund Husserl, Luce Irigaray and David Kleinberg-Levin, the book argues for the ontological primacy of breathing and develops a new principle of philosophy that the author calls “Silence of Breath, Abyss\/Yawn of Air”. It asserts that breathing is not a thing- or person-oriented relation but perpetual communication with the immense elemental atmosphere of open and free air. This new phenomenological method of breathing offers readers a chance to begin to wonder, rethink, re-experience and reimagine all questions of life in an innovative and creative way as aerial and respiratory questions of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart of the \u003ci\u003eRoutledge Critical Perspectives on Breath and Breathing \u003c\/i\u003eseries, the book breaks new ground in phenomenology and phenomenological ontology by offering a decisive and insightful treatment of breath. It will be indispensable for students and researchers of philosophy, phenomenology and ontology. It will also be of special interest to Merleau-Ponty scholars as it investigates uncharted dimensions of Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54242635415896,"sku":"9781032428802","price":167.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/phenomenological-ontology-of-breathing","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
