Abstract

Phenomenology, and in particular that expressed by Maurice Merleau-Ponty, has from the outset been an essential vector in the path traced over the years by Philosophy Kitchen and an intellectual and biographical reference for several of those animating the project. In the essay that follows this brief introduction, Anna Caternina Dalmasso takes an original look at some of its traits. I leave the introductory word, undoubtedly more pregnant and vivid, to Jacques Lacan, who in 1961 thus paid homage to his colleague and friend and his extraordinary philosophical contribution.
