L'ouvrage fait découvrir une philosophie majeure de la liberté. Il dégage dans Levinas la puissante dialectique d'une liberté provoquée par l'extériorité. Celui qui se veut libre est appelé à poursuivre sa libération en se délivrant de lui-même. Avec la philosophie altière de Levinas, on ose penser un altruisme libérateur de soi et de tout autre, associé à une politique de la liberté et de l'égalité. A l'encontre d'idées reçues sur l'un des philosophes français les plus profonds du XXe' siècle, on perçoit dans le texte de Levinas l'exigence d'institutions républicaines qui préservent la liberté de la tentation d'abdiquer par lâcheté, lassitude ou épuisement. Levinas permet de soutenir un rationalisme critique réfractaire à l'esprit de système, qui considère le rapport à l'altérité comme le foyer vivant de la pensée. On s'attache à montrer comment l'engagement rationaliste de Levinas, encore méconnu, s'accompagne d'une contestation radicale de toutes les aliénations.

Levinas Faces Biblical Figures captures the drama of the encounter between a great philosopher and a text of primary importance. The book considers the ways in which Levinas's thoughts can open up the biblical text to requestioning, and how the biblical text can inform our reading of Levinas.

In Essential Vulnerabilities, Deborah Achtenberg contests Emmanuel Levinas's idea that Plato is a philosopher of freedom for whom thought is a return to the self. Instead, Plato, like Levinas, is a philosopher of the other. Nonetheless, Achtenberg argues, Plato and Levinas are different. Though they share the view that human beings are essentially vulnerable and essentially in relation to others, they conceive human vulnerability and responsiveness differently. For Plato, when we see beautiful others, we are overwhelmed by the beauty of what is, by the vision of eternal form. For Levinas, we are disrupted by the newness, foreignness, or singularity of the other. The other, for him, is new or foreign, not eternal. The other is unknowable singularity. By showing these similarities and differences, Achtenberg resituates Plato in relation to Levinas and opens up two contrasting ways that self is essentially in relation to others.

Jean-Luc Nancy and the Thinking of Otherness is the first book in English to provide a sustained account of the relationship between Nancy, Levinas and Heidegger. It investigates Jean-Luc Nancy's reading of Heidegger, focusing on the question of Being-with, and starting with the problem of otherness in Heidegger, the book goes on to establish a dialogue between Nancy and the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas. With intellectual agility and command of cinema, literature and visual art, Daniele Rugo insists on the critical significance of Nancy's project for any future philosophy attempting to define itself beyond foundational acts, and according to the continuous crossings at the heart of existence. By discussing Nancy alongside Heidegger and Levinas, Rugo underlines the essential indecision between philosophy-as-literature and philosophy as the re-appropriation of the question of Being. Rugo offers unexpected associations which return thinking to the play of specificity, rather than restricting it to the passage of abstract formulations.

Ce livre propose une nouvelle lecture des philosophies d’Emmanuel Lévinas, l’élève critique, et d’Edmund Husserl, le père fondateur de la phénoménologie. L’auteur fait voir comment doit être surmonté le conflit présumé entre une phénoménologie qui défend la capacité de discerner toute expérience par le biais de la conscience et une éthique qui expose des situations de vie résistant a tout discernement. De la rencontre historique entre les deux pensées naît ainsi une connivence philosophique inédite qui montre comment s’intègrent l’approche réflexive, husserlienne, et l’approche pré-réflexive, lévinasienne, dans le même espace de vie que constitue l’expérience humaine
