“Chiasm, Flesh and Nature. Merleau-Ponty and the Problem of Mediality”. The notion of flesh, belonging to the last stage of Merleau-Ponty’s thought, occupies a decisive place in specialized research on the author. However, few publications highlight the immense influence of the latter in current thought, especially in the post-humanist and materialist currents of contemporary philosophy. We propose, in the pages that follow, to analyze this category from the point of view of a philosophy of relationship, interpreting it from the figure of mediality or relating them to a notion of medium.
