Infos

The philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas introduces a groundbreaking shift in ethical discourse by prioritizing the uniqueness of the Other. Levinas redefines morality by emphasizing the existential precedence of the Other over the self, challenging the self-centered nature of modern individualism. This book offers a fresh perspective on Levinas thought, contextualizing his philosophy through his intellectual influences, dialogues with contemporaries, and imagined conversations with thinkers from both Eastern and Western traditions. It provides a profound exploration of the interplay between Jewish thought and universal philosophy, bridging particularistic commitments and global ethical perspectives. Accessible yet deeply scholarly, the book brings Levinas philosophy into broader social, religious, political, and interpretative contexts, making it an essential read for intellectual audiences.
