Maurice Merleau-Ponty

Immanuel Kant, a pivotal figure in epistemology, joins forces with existentialist Martin Heidegger, phenomenologist Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and feminist scholar Sara Ahmed. They explore phenomenology's impact on our perception of space and time, emphasizing that these concepts are human constructs. Ahmed introduces queer perspectives, urging a reevaluation of marginalized experiences. The discussion also highlights the influence of power dynamics on personal identity, drawing connections to historical legacies of racism and colonialism.
