Recenzii

A richly enabling resource. The Merleau-Ponty Dictionary offers a chronology of Merleau-Ponty's life and works, synopses of his texts, and entries on key concepts, technical terms and historical influences. Pithy, insightful and nuanced, the entries in the dictionary provide an intelligent orientation to Merleau-Ponty's work, and diverse resources for thinking one's way further into the issues at play.
From the bright undergraduate first-time reader of Merleau-Ponty to the seasoned graduate student and senior scholar, all will find valuable discoveries in this clear, concise, and comprehensive dictionary. Landes has given us a lucid biography, bibliography, and A-Z account of Merleau-Ponty's philosophical and psychological vocabulary and the vocabulary of phenomenology itself, as well as insightful analyses of Merleau-Ponty's key texts. This handbook will find its place in my Merleau-Ponty seminars.
