{"product_id":"thinking-of-the-sensible","title":"Thinking of the Sensible","description":"In this first English publication of a well-known and widely respected Italian scholar, readers will encounter the preeminent interpreter of the works of Maurice Merleau-Ponty engaged in a dialogue of critical concern to contemporary philosophy. In subtle and sensitive language eminently suitable to the style and substance of Merleau-Ponty's own writings, Mauro Carbone fashions four essays around a theme - the relations of the sensible and the intelligible, and of philosophy and non-philosophy - that occupied Merleau-Ponty in his later work. An original and innovative interpretation of the ontology of Merleau-Ponty - and themselves a significant contribution to the field of Continental thought - these essays constitute a sustained exploration of what Merleau-Ponty detected, and greeted, as a \"\"mutation within the relations of man and Being,\"\" which would provide him with a basis for a new idea of philosophy or \"\"a-philosophy\"\". Carbone analyses key elements of Merleau-Ponty's thought in relation to Proust's \"\"Recherche\"\", Hegel's \"\"Phenomenology of Spirit\"\", the new biology of Von Uexkull, Rimbaud's \"\"Lettre du voyant\"\", and Heidegger's conception of \"\"letting-be\"\". His work clearly demonstrates the vitality of Merleau-Ponty's late revolutionary philosophy by following its most salient, previously unexplored paths.","brand":"Northwestern University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57261112197464,"sku":"9780810119864","price":26.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780810119864_7638580e-70ad-46bb-a5d1-542942072d8a.jpg?v=1778916667","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/thinking-of-the-sensible","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
