Itaims at analyzing the different positions adopted by the philosopher on that rapport by considering the image of a boiling liquid as the guide for such analysis. The heuristic power of this image will help, on one side,to comprehend the different standpoints used to interpret the phenomenon of language; on the other side, it will serve as an index to follow the rectification and the radicalization of his philosophy. %K Merleau-Ponty %K Silence %K Language %K Ambiguity %K Circularity %K Dimension %U http://ojs.c3sl.ufpr.br/ojs2/index.php/doispontos/article/view/29092/19158
