Continuums Guides for the Perplexed are clear, concise, and
accessible introductions to thinkers, writers, and subjects that
students and readers can find especially challengingGCoor, indeed,
downright bewildering. Concentrating specifically on what it is
that makes the subject difficult to fathom, these books explain and
explore key themes and ideas, guiding the reader towards a thorough
understanding of demanding material. Emmanuel Levinas is one of the
most influential ethicists of recent times. The importance and
relevance of his work has been recognized and celebrated within
philosophy, religion, sociology, political theory, and other
disciplines. His writing, however, undoubtedly presents the reader
with a significant challenge. Often labyrinthine, paradoxical, and
opaque, Levinas work seeks to articulate a complex ideology and
some hard-to-grasp concepts. Levinas: A Guide for the Perplexed is
the ideal text for the student, teacher, or lay reader who wants to
develop a full and effective understanding of this major modern
philosopher. Focused upon precisely why Levinas is a difficult
subject for study, the text guides the reader through the core
themes and concepts in his writing, providing a thorough overview
of his work. Valuably, the book also emphasizes Levinass importance
for contemporary ethical problems and thinking.
