This book utilizes Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s fascinating philosophy of embodiment to cast further light on the incredibly rich and complex phenomenon of shame. The philosopher himself made only scattered references to shame, but both his early phenomenology and his later phenomenological ontology do provide unique illumination of the phenomenon.  The book demonstrates how Merleau-Ponty’s work is relevant to those of certain other thinkers in the analytic tradition.
