Although both thinkers criticize the traditional concept of truth as objectivity, they both find that rejecting it does not solve the problem. What is it in our natural existence that gave rise to the notion of truth?The answer to that question is threefold. First, Nietzsche and Merleau-Ponty both propose a genealogy of ?truth? in which to exist means to make implicit truth claims. Second, both seek to recover the preobjective ground from which truth as an erroneous concept arose. Finally, this attempt at recovery leads both thinkers to ontological considerations regarding how we must conceive of a being whose structure allows for the existence of the belief in truth. In conclusion, Chouraqui suggests that both thinkers? investigations of the question of truth lead them to conceive of being as the process of self-falsification by which indeterminate being presents itself as determinate. 410 0$aPerspectives in continental philosophy. 606 $aAbsolute, The 606 $aAmbiguity 606 $aTruth 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAbsolute, The. 615 0$aAmbiguity. 615 0$aTruth. 676 $a121 700 $aChouraqui$b Frank$0790904 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910468023103321 996 $aAmbiguity and the absolute$91766878 997 $aUNINA
