Description
This introduction to Emmanuel Levinas provides a clear overview of his philosophical thought, exploring the central idea that human existence is fundamentally ethical and rooted in our relationships with others.
Morgan examines the implications of this insight for modern Western culture, including its effects on selfhood, moral values, time, history, and religious concepts. The book includes an annotated list of recommended readings and a selected bibliography to support further study.
