Abstract

"Further Considerations of Alienation" attempts to expand upon an earlier essay entitled "Merleau-Ponty and a Reconsideration of Alienation." From the point of view of Merleau-Ponty's philosophy, this new essay considers modernist rationality and the postmodernist free play of language as forms of alienation. The essay attempts to show that Merleau-Ponty joins the company of Marx, Lukács. Habermas and Heidegger in order to make this case.
