Reviews
An excellent, long overdue study of an important but underdiscussed aspect of Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology. This is a book that Merleau-Ponty scholars and phenomenological readers of all sorts, as well as readers of modernist poetry and literature, will welcome. The authors of this volume have made a profound case for philosophical engagement with poetry, for 'philosophy as poetry, ' and for the centrality of poetry and literature to phenomenological ontology. ---Jennifer Gosetti-Ferencei, Johns Hopkins University, This book promises to become an indispensable resource not only for Merleau-Ponty scholars, but also for scholars in contemporary European philosophy as a whole, and in comparative literature, French, and literary theory. Creative, exciting, and visionary. ---Veronique Foti, Pennsylvania State University,
