Deleuze and Merleau-ponty. The meat of the world
Main Article Content
Abstract
Despite the distance between Merleau-Ponty’s and Deleuze’s philosophies, it is possible to discover more than analogue complicity regarding the criticism addressed to Husserl. In the aesthetic field, for example, we notice that the last thoughts of Merleau-Ponty, present mainly in The visible and the invisible, refer constantly to works such as the one that Deleuze dedicated to the painter Francis Bacon. Therefore, this research is intended to define the main passages and motives on which, following also the reading of Husserl, we can find contact points between Merleau-Ponty and Deleuze that defy the apparently indifferent approach from which their philosophies are understood.
