Chiasmi International : Entre Esthetique et Psychanalise Between Aesthetics and Psychoanalysis Tra Estetica e Psicoanalisi Part 6 Paperback

The essays in Between Aesthetics and Psychoanalysis bring to light how Merleau-Ponty's thought is at once theoretical and practical, aesthetical (in both senses of art and sense-experience) and intellectual.

Fruitful comparisons are also made between Merleau-Ponty and other thinkers: Fink, Gurwitsch, Deleuze, Derrida, Marx, Lacan, and Melanie Klein.

Being spread over many topics and figures therefore, this volume of Chiasmi International presents the full spectrum of current research concerning the thought of Merleau-Ponty.

As well, volume VI of Chiasmi International completes the second full cycle of the rotating editorship among Renaud Barbaras, Mauro Carbone, and Leonard Lawlor.

It therefore gives us an occasion to be a bit retrospective.

Perhaps, on the basis of these six volumes, it is possible to claim that Merleau-Ponty is the resource, the "point of diffraction," we might say, for all contemporary philosophy in the Continental tradition.
