BUTLER, Judith. Sexual difference as a question of ethics: alterities of the flesh in Irigaray and Merleau-Ponty. Educ. Form. [online]. 2021, vol.6, n.2, e5204.  Epub 26-Abr-2021. ISSN 2448-3583.  https://doi.org/10.25053/redufor.v6i2.5204.

The present article is a cross between the approach of the feminist philosopher Luce Irigaray, making reference mainly to her work An ethics of sexual difference, and the perspective of the philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty, highlighting especially the chapter “The interwining - The chiasm”, from his posthumous work The visible and the invisible. Irigaray has a kind of ambivalent relationship in the way she places herself in front of the texts of male philosophers. Incorporating the philosophical tradition into his own text, Irigaray engages with Merleau-Ponty by an “interwining”, characteristic of the relations of Merleau-Ponty´s theory of the flesh. It is worth noting that this article is unified by the purpose of elaborating what Irigaray calls the ethical relation between the sexes. For her, such a relation consists of the question “Who are you?” The vast debate involving ethics, sexual difference, and otherness of the flesh is woven under the analysis of the two great philosophers.
