Abstract
Phenomenology of Perception is widely considered to be Merleau-Ponty’s masterpiece and one of the most important philosophical publications of 20th Century continental philosophy. Yet, Merleau-Ponty’s later work, specifically the posthumously published The Visible and the Invisible expresses various critical concerns with the earlier text, particularly with its remnants of Cartesianism. The goal of this essay is to explicate Merleau-Ponty’s concerns, mark-out some of the differences between the two texts, and to show how the later work attempts to solve the problems of the earlier one. Since some contention exists about the relationship between the two texts the appropriate quotations will be provided to support the interpretation offered here
