Descripción

Merleau-Ponty shares with Jewish phenomenologist the conception of a located existence, paradox butically establishes a sort of dialectic between an existence quasi impersonal and anonymous and the personal action (see Phenomenology of Perception). The tacit or presuppost character of the relationship between the subject and the world and the others has incidence in the conformation of its identity. The identity is understood from an existential or vital viewpoint in contrast to an intellectual viewpoint. The last chapter of Phenomenology of Perception devoted to freedom has been chosen. This choice is justified because it allows establishing points of contact with some of the ideas exposed by E. Stein in the first chapters of her work Psychic Causality.
