VICENTE, Vânia. On ethics, Merleau-Ponty and phenomenology: echoes of a dialogue with Renaud Barbaras. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2019, vol.25, n.2, pp. 185-195. ISSN 1809-6867.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18065/RAG.2019v25n2.9.

This article follows up on a conversation between its author and Renaud Barbaras, reflecting on a project of investigation of ethics based on the thought of Merleau-Ponty, by addressing key questions resulting from this conversation in more depth. It does so by exploring the difficulties of thinking ethics from a phenomenological, hence, descriptive, philosophy starting point - which, for Barbaras, would be opposed to the prescriptive perspective proper to ethics; and, on the contrary, by looking at the reciprocal relation between the phenomenological disposition of the thinking and ethics - as the author understands it. Dealing with such questions, three lines appear progressively in the text, giving its outline: (i) the approximations and dissonances between ethics and phenomenology, (ii) the ethics that derivates from there - or at least some of its lines, and at last (iii) the flow of a friendship, born from debating these questions, between the author and Renaud Barbaras, philosopher to whom this text pays tribute.
