transcendental subjectivity is 'an intersubjectivity' (378).

is not simply able to discover others, but rather that it must always already be an intersubjectivity.

Merleau-Ponty's discussion of intersubjectivity begins from Husserl's work on the experience of others, yet he shifts the emphasis from the epistemic challenge of experiencing others to the existential structures of a shared world through our bodies and our cultural objects. Thus, he stresses in Phenomenology of Perception that Husserl's investigations require we recognize not that transcendental subjectivity can discover others, but that it must always already 'be an intersubjectivity' (PhP, lxxvi).

is the self-examination that accounts for the whole of phenomenology.

The whole of phenomenology is nothing more than the self-examination on the part of transcendental subjectivity' (dostal (in guignon): 148)
