  • Rethinking Ethical Agency in Levinas
    Benda Hofmeyr
    978-1-4020-9347-0
    2009
    Edition 1
    • This edited collection is the first in its kind to focus on the subject of radical passivity and to directly address criticisms leveled against Levinas’s prioritization of the Other as ethical cornerstone
    • This revaluation of Levinas’s thinking will provide a fundamental framework for reflecting on the resurgence of ethics in contemporary philosophy, literary and cultural theory
    • Unlike recent research done in France, this volume does not seek to indict Levinas for this 'sacrificial ethics' but to critically assess to what extent his ethical metaphysics provides us with a basis for effective ethical action today
    • The contributors include renowned scholars from around the world, which gives the volume a guaranteed international appeal (specifically USA, UK and Europe)
    • The duo-paper structure of the volume generates an internal debate amongst the contributions, which cover the entire scope of Levinas’s work. This is instrumental in furnishing the reader with a unbiased and multi-dimensional perspective on radical passivity
