Is Emmanuel Levinas a dismissive critic of Husserlian phenomenology, or an important member of its movement? The standard account of Levinas's work assumes his distance from Husserl. In opposition to this account, Sensibility and Singularity contends that Husserl was a vital, living resource for Levinas throughout his philosophical career. The singularity of the Other is the centerpiece of Levinas's thought. The philosophical significance of this singularity, however, cannot be fully appreciated without attending to Levinas's transformation of the Husserlian themes of time, materiality, intentionality, and sense. This book documents those transformations and establishes their centrality to Levinas's notion of ethics. What emerges from this reading is a thorough account of Levinas's constant and productive debate with the Husserlian tradition of phenomenology.

The reputation and influence of Emmanuel Levinas (1906-96) has grown powerfully. Well known in France in his lifetime, he has since his death become widely regarded as a major European moral philosopher profoundly shaped by his Jewish background. A pupil of Husserl and Heidegger, Levinas pioneered new forms of exegesis with his post-modern readings of the Talmud, and as an ethicist brought together religious and non-religious, Jewish and non-Jewish traditions of contemporary thought. Richard A. Cohen has written a book which uses Levinas' work as its base but goes on to explore broader questions of interpretation in the context of text-based ethical thinking. Levinas' reorientation of philosophy is considered in critical contrast to alternative contemporary approaches such as those found in modern science, psychology, Nietzsche, Freud, Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, Derrida and Ricoeur. Cohen explores a manner of philosophizing which he terms 'ethical exegesis'.

On ne dira pas que l'homme est la mesure de toutes choses. Mais on soutiendra avec Emmanuel Levinas une thèse audacieuse, presque extravagante, qui consiste à tempérer l'ardeur et l'âpreté de la relation éthique à l'autre homme par la recherche d'une mesure commune d'ordre politique. L'homme est rappelé à l'ordre de la mesure à chaque fois qu'il met en péril l'élément humain qui fait la chair de nos vies en relation. Encore faut-il être vigilant : l'humanité déborde son genre et résiste à toute définition. L'humanité en chaque homme n'est pas nécessairement prise dans une lutte à mort et il est permis de penser le politique en dehors des catégories héritées de Hegel ou de Hobbes. A travers la confrontation avec ces classiques de la philosophie politique, on verra se dessiner la leçon d'Emmanuel Levinas. Cet essai peut se lire comme une introduction à l'œuvre de Levinas, mais aussi bien comme une série de variations. Il peut également fournir les prémisses des philosophies de l'humanité pour notre temps. Au-delà du simple commentaire, il interroge nos ressources vives pour relever le défi de la précarité de notre condition
