| Abstract | This paper intends to show, in the first place, the way in which the essential incarnation of consciousness as proposed in the Phenomenology of Perception disputes the main features which prevailed all along modern reflection on subjectivity. The formulation of a bodily subject presupposes a weakening of self-consciousness, apodicticity, free will, transcendentality, and of the constituting function attributed to the ego, among other characteristics. In the second place, directing our attention to Merleau-Ponty's latter philosophy, we show the persistence of this "corporeal ego" as an indispensable element of "the ontology of the flesh". Thus, we question the more usual interpretation of the evolution of Merleau-Ponty's thinking, that which marks a rupture or break between a supposed modern and subjectivistic legacy in the "former Merleau-Ponty" as opposed to an alleged vanishing of the body and the subject in the "latter Merleau-Ponty". |
