Resumo: Merleau-Ponty, in Humanism and Terror (1947), addresses the spectrum of problems related to revolutionary action. His essay, Eye and Mind (1960), is best known as a contribu-tion to aesthetics. A common structure exists in these apparently disparate works. We must reject the illusion of subjective clairvoyance as a standard of revolutionary praxis; but also we must reject any idealized light of reason that illuminates all—that promises a history without shadows. The revolutionary nature of an act must be established as such through praxis. The creative praxes of the political revolutionary or the revolutionary artist are recognized ex post facto; yet each involves the creation of its own new aesthetic wherein the value of that praxis is to be understood spontaneously and all at once.

Su ensayo, L ́Oeil et l ́Esprit (1960), es más conocido como una contribución a la estética. Hay una estructura común en estas obras aparentemen-te dispares. Debemos rechazar la ilusión de la clarividencia subjetiva como patrón de praxis revolucionaria, pero también debemos rechazar cualquier luz idealizada de la razón que ilu-mine todo, que prometa una historia sin sombras. El carácter revolucionario de un acto debe establecerse como tal a través de la praxis. La praxis creativa del político revolucionario o del artista revolucionario se reconoce ex post facto. Sin embargo, cada uno implica la creación de su propia nueva estética, en la que el valor de esa praxis debe entenderse de forma espontánea y en bloque.Merleau-Ponty, em Humanismo e Terror (1947), aborda o espectro de problemas relacionados à ação revolucionária. Seu ensaio, O olho e o espírito (1960), é mais conhecido como uma contribuição à estética. Há uma estrutura comum nesses trabalhos aparentemente díspares. Devemos rejeitar a ilusão da clarividência subjetiva como um padrão de práxis revolucionária, mas devemos também rejeitar qualquer luz idealizada da razão que ilumine tudo – que prometa uma história sem sombras. A natureza revolucionária de um ato deve ser estabelecida como tal através da práxis. As pr&aa cute;xis criativas do revolucionário político ou do artista revolucionário são reconhecidas ex post facto. Contudo, cada uma envolve a criação de sua própria estética nova, na qual o valor daquela práxis deve ser compreendido espontaneamente e em bloco.Associação de Pesquisas em Fenomenologia (APFeno)2021-04-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoTextoTextoapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://phenomenology.com.br/index.php/phe/article/view/77Phenomenology, Humanities and Sciences; Vol. 2 No. 1 (2021): Dossiê Especial F.
