This book provides a clear and helpful overview of the thought of
Emmanuel Levinas, one of the most significant and interesting
philosophers of the late twentieth century. Michael L. Morgan
presents an overall interpretation of Levinas's central principle
that human existence is fundamentally ethical and that its ethical
character is grounded in our face-to-face relationships with other
people. He explores the religious, cultural, and political
implications of this insight for modern Western culture and how it
relates to our conception of selfhood and what it is to be a
person, our understanding of the ground of moral values, our
experience of time and the meaning of history, and our experience
of religious concepts and discourse. The book includes an annotated
list of recommended readings and a selected bibliography of books
by and about Levinas. It will be an excellent introduction to
Levinas for readers unfamiliar with his work, and even for those
without a background in philosophy.
