The Problem with Levinas

Mehr zum Buch

Exploring Levinas's concept of ethics, Simon Critchley presents a provocative reinterpretation of his work, suggesting that it grapples with the tragic elements of Heidegger's philosophy. Critchley challenges traditional views by revealing a more complex and troubling narrative surrounding Levinas's ideas on responsibility and the human condition. This analysis not only deepens the understanding of Levinas's ethical framework but also highlights the philosophical tensions that underpin his thought.
