La ambigüedad de la existencia en Merleau-Ponty

the actual piece deals with the new sense conferred to human existence by merleau-ponty, that as it simultaneously recognizes its belonging to the world according to the heideggerian notion of being-in-the-world and from a viewpoint that opposes rationalist intellectualism, nevertheless does not renounce a philosophy of the subject inspired in the later husserl. this approach leads merleau-ponty to interpret the cartesian principle of cogito as existence, and to attribute to this notion an ambiguity: that which corresponds to the double and simultaneous consideration of belonging to the world and being differentiated from it. this philosophical project is elaborated through a new way of describing experience in the line of a phenomenological conception which attributes to the body the transcendental role that classical idealism assigned to conscience.
