Description
Book SynopsisQuestioning the dominant view that Deleuze and Merleau-Ponty have little of substance in common, Judith Wambacq draws on unpublished primary sources and current scholarship in English and French to bring them into a compelling dialogue to reveal a shared concern with the transcendental conditions of thought.
Trade Review“Wambacq’s book breaks new ground in scholarship on Deleuze, Merleau-Ponty, and Continental philosophy in general. Well written, well organized, lucid, and insightful, it will open new lines of scholarly investigation.”
“Thinking between Deleuze and Merleau-Ponty provides us with the most complete comparison of the two philosophers’ thought. This is an impressive investigation. It brings forth a Deleuze and a Merleau-Ponty that we have not seen before: a Merleau-Ponty devoted to immanence and a Deleuze who is a genuine transcendental philosopher. Both Merleau-Ponteans and Deleuzians will come away from this study having seen something new.”
