Merleau Pontys Cezanne

Merleau-Ponty's Cézanne Book Summary

This book is an attempt to show Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology as a critique on the doubt of the thought that enables the infinity of perception. The book seeks to illustrate how Cézanne's unique color modulations both remove the necessity of the line and Cézanne's doubt of himself, unlike Descartes' cognito. With illustrations it explains how the infinity of perception is what creates our world of surfaces, but science claims as an illusion.
