Description

From the author of "Difficult Freedom: Essays on Judaism", these collected essays present Levinas' most recent thinking. The focus is primarily philosophical. Levinas engages in critical dialogue with important contemporary Continental intellectuals, including Martin Buber, Franz Rosenzweig, Jean Wahl and Merleau-Ponty, and takes up major issues of philosophical, religious and literary concern. The book is intended for philosophers, theologians and literary critics.
