Merleau-Ponty: Merleau-Ponty: “My existence should never be reduced to my bare “My existence should never be reduced to my bare awareness of existing, but that it should take in also the awareness that awareness of existing, but that it should take in also the awareness that ONE may have of it…”ONE may have of it…”

DourishDourish: “The body, in Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology, plays a pivotal : “The body, in Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology, plays a pivotal role in the mind/body, subject/object duality with which Husserl had role in the mind/body, subject/object duality with which Husserl had struggled. For Merleau-Ponty, the body is neither subject nor object, but an struggled. For Merleau-Ponty, the body is neither subject nor object, but an ambiguous third party.”ambiguous third party.”

Once we stop, to-hand”: we act through it, and in a way forget that it’s there. Once we stop, it’s “present-at-hand” again. What’s important is that it disappears through it’s “present-at-hand” again.
