The contributors address the fundamental cores of his philosophy: perception, the body, expression, and the relationship between the subject and the world. It analyzes how the French philosopher established a living dialogue with the intellectual currents of his time—phenomenology, vitalism, existentialism, Marxism, and structuralism—to construct an original and fruitful proposal.
