Scott L. Marratto

The Intercorporeal Self (eBook, ePUB)

Merleau-Ponty on Subjectivity

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Challenging a prevalent Western idea of the self as a discrete, interior consciousness, Scott L. Marratto argues instead that subjectivity is a characteristic of the living, expressive movement establishing a dynamic intertwining between a sentient body and its environment. He draws on the work of the French philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty, contemporary European philosophy, and research in cognitive science and development to offer a compelling investigation into what it means to be a self.
