Merleau-Ponty and the Problem of Truth: Little Gauss´ Story and the Sum of the Angles of the Triangle [Spanish]
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper aims to elucidate the problem of truth as Merleau-Ponty treats it. To achieve this we will analyze two of the examples considered by the author and we will seek to hold, on the basis of these, that any formalization is always retrospective and “feeds on intuitive thought”, it is in the intuition where all certainty is formed and a truth appears. The proper place of truth will be the one of the recovery of the object of thought in the new signification instituted on those relations, along with the construction of the new relations in which the meaning of the first ones becomes contracted and included. To reach the mentioned aim we will appeal to the notion of institution of knowledge elaborated by the French philosopher.
