商品描述

This study brings to light the original concept of the imaginary that emerges from Merleau Ponty's thought. It elucidates the main influences that contributed to shaping Merleau-Ponty's theory of the imaginary and aims to show that this novel concept constitutes one of the most crucial yet challenging keys to his philosophy and ultimately his ontology.

This book develops the ontology of the imagery sketched by Merleau-Ponty and examines its practical implications. As its originally ambiguous and inseparable underside, the imaginary is just as central to Merleau-Ponty's philosophy as perception. The author argues to enlarge the notion of reality by recognizing the imaginary dimension and "texture" of the real, and that Merleau-Ponty's ontology of the flesh cannot be separated from an ontology of the imaginary. This monograph examines Merleau-Ponty's conception of the imaginary against both his aesthetics, and his political philosophy - and appeals to students and researchers working in phenomenology and continental philosophy.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本研究揭示了源自梅洛-龐蒂思想的想像力原始概念。它闡明了影響梅洛-龐蒂想像力理論形成的主要因素，並旨在展示這一新穎概念構成了他哲學中最關鍵但又最具挑戰性的鑰匙之一，最終也影響了他的本體論。

本書發展了梅洛-龐蒂所勾勒的意象本體論，並檢視其實際意涵。作為其原本模糊且不可分割的底面，想像力在梅洛-龐蒂的哲學中與知覺同樣重要。作者主張通過認識現實的想像維度和“質地”來擴展現實的概念，並指出梅洛-龐蒂的肉體本體論無法與想像的本體論分開。本專著檢視了梅洛-龐蒂對想像力的理解，並將其與他的美學及政治哲學進行對比，對於從事現象學和大陸哲學研究的學生和研究者具有吸引力。
