Merleau-Ponty’s Last Vision: A Proposal for the Completion of “The Visible and the Invisible”

Few writers’ unfinished works are considered among their most important, but such is the case with Merleau-Ponty’s The Visible and the Invisible . What exists of it is a mere beginning, yet it bridged modernism and postmodernism in philosophy. Low uses material from some of Merleau-Ponty’s later works as the basis for completion. Working from this material and the philosopher’s own outline, Low presents how this important work would have looked had Merleau-Ponty lived to complete it.
