Maurice Merleau-Ponty was a French phenomenological philosopher born on March 14, 1908, in Rochefort-sur-Mer and died on May 3, 1961, in Paris. His philosophy emphasizes the fundamental role of perception in our understanding of the world and our interactions with it. Distinct from traditional philosophical thought, he argued for the body as the primary means of knowing the world rather than consciousness. Merleau-Ponty engaged in extensive debate with the sciences, especially psychology, and his later works focused on an 'indirect ontology' of the 'flesh of the world.'
