• W1569165532 abstract "Western Philosophy, for a very long time, concerned itself with the task of separating mind and body, reason and emotion, and thus men and women. As a result of women’s disallowance to participate in philosophy, philosophy remained a faculty of the mind and women were relegated to the home. Maurice Merleau-Ponty, a 20th century French philosopher, brought philosophy back to the body with Phenomenology of Perception. In this text Merleau-Ponty offers a universal account of how humans experience embodiment. This paper examines not only Merleau-Ponty’s neglect, but also philosophy’s neglect of the female body: Merleau-Ponty assumes that the male body serves as the universal body, the touchstone for all descriptions of embodiment. Introduction The project of philosophy has always been to understand who we are and what we know. According to many in the past, the body detracts from this, and throughout the history of philosophy the body has been regarded as inconsequential in the realm of academia, so much so that there is often hostility when talking about the body in relation to reason. Reason harbors itself within the mind, and because of this, reason is considered superior to emotion and the body because emotion is considered distracting, burdensome, cloudy, and confusing. The body became the target of hostility during the time of Plato in Ancient Greece. Plato had a theory of forms and in this theory he postulated that there exist ideals for every concept, such as Truth, Beauty, Love, and the Good. For Plato, we may access the forms (and truth) through the mind, which must get away from the body in order to know. Following in Plato’s footsteps was Rene Descartes, a late 16thearly 17thcentury philosopher who reinforced the break between mind and body when he introduced the idea of the disembodied ego cogito with his famous statement, cogito ergo sum or, “I think, therefore I am.” This simple assertion achieved a sort of abolition of the role of the body in rational thought – relegating the body to a place where it had no relevance in philosophical discourse. One of the consequences of this banishment was that women were now just as unwanted in the realm of the rational because they were seen as creatures of nature and emotion. Because of this alignment, women were subsequently affiliated with the body. They then became mistresses of the forgotten – inconsequential, trivial, and irrelevant. Furthermore, their exile from reason was not the only outcome of Descartes’ work: many dichotomies other than reason/emotion Thinking the Body: Sexual Difference in Philosophy An Examination of Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s Account of Embodiment in Phenomenology of Perception" @default.
