Derrida has paid him homage as \"master.\" An original philosopher who combines the insights of phenomenological analysis with those of Jewish spirituality, Emmanuel Levinas has proven to be of extraordinary importance in the history of modern thought. Collecting Levinas's important writings on religion,  Difficult Freedom contributes to a growing debate about the significance of religion-particularly Judaism and Jewish spiritualism-in European philosophy. Topics include ethics, aesthetics, politics, messianism, Judaism and women, and Jewish-Christian relations, as well as the work of Spinoza, Hegel, Heidegger, Franz Rosenzweig, Simone Weil, and Jules Issac.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50020321001745,"sku":"GOR011002258","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50187106058513,"sku":"CIN080185783XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51007318491409,"sku":"NIN9780801857836","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52329770549521,"sku":"CIN080185783XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/080185783X.jpg?v=1751233329"},{"product_id":"of-god-who-comes-to-mind-book-emmanuel-levinas-9780804730945","title":"Of God Who Comes to Mind","description":"The thirteen essays collected in this volume investigate the possibility that the word \"God\" can be understood now, at the end of the twentieth century, in a meaningful way. Nine of the essays appear in English translation for the first time.   Among Levinas's writings, this volume distinguishes itself, both for students of his thought and for a wider audience, by the range of issues it addresses. Levinas not only rehearses the ethical themes that have led him to be regarded as one of the most original thinkers working out of the phenomenological tradition, but he also takes up philosophical questions concerning politics, language, and religion. The volume situates his thought in a broader intellectual context than have his previous works. In these essays, alongside the detailed investigations of Husserl, Heidegger, Rosenzweig, and Buber that characterize all his writings, Levinas also addresses the thought of Kierkegaard, Marx, Bloch, and Derrida.   Some essays provide lucid expositions not available elsewhere to key areas of Levinas's thought. \"God and Philosophy\" is perhaps the single most important text for understanding Levinas and is in many respects the best introduction to his works. \"From Consciousness to Wakefulness\" illuminates Levinas's relation to Husserl and thus to phenomenology, which is always his starting point, even if he never abides by the limits it imposes. In \"The Thinking of Being and the Question of the Other,\" Levinas not only addresses Derrida's Speech and Phenomenon but also develops an answer to the later Heidegger's account of the history of Being by suggesting another way of reading that history.   Among the other topics examined in the essays are the Marxist concept of ideology, death, hermeneutics, the concept of evil, the philosophy of dialogue, the relation of language to the Other, and the acts of communication and mutual understanding.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50052097114385,"sku":"GOR005861309","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50366802886929,"sku":"CIN0804730946G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51007574147345,"sku":"NIN9780804730945","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51560281735441,"sku":"NGR9780804730945","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ LIKE_NEW \/ SBYB","offer_id":53134436761873,"sku":"CIN0804730946LN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53203946373393,"sku":"GOR002661712","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53351303446801,"sku":"CIN0804730946VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":53390714700049,"sku":"CIN0804730946A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0804730946.jpg?v=1757415318"},{"product_id":"to-the-other-book-adriaan-theodoor-peperzak-9781557530240","title":"To the Other","description":"The fruit of the author's many courses on Emmanuel Levinas in Europe and the United States, this study is a clear introduction for graduate students and scholars who are not yet familiar with Levinas's difficult but exceptionally important oeuvre. After a first chapter on the existential background and the key issues of his thought, chapters 2, 3, and 4 concentrate on and include a short text, \"Philosophy and the idea of the Infinite,\" which contains the program of Levinas's entire oeuvre. Chapter 5 is a companion to the reading of Levinas's first opus magnum, Totality and the Infinite. It analyzes the structure of this book and shows how its questions and answers adhere together. \"Through phenomenology toward a saying beyond phenomena and essence\" could be the summary of Levinas's attempt to think, with and against Martin Heidegger, the otherness of the Other. This is brought out even more clearly in his second opus magnum, Otherwise Than Being or Beyond Essence, whose significance is shown in chapter 6. A bibliography is added to facilitate further study.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50136720670993,"sku":"CIN1557530246G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51037492838673,"sku":"NIN9781557530240","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52653536182545,"sku":"NLS9781557530240","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1557530246.jpg?v=1761731731"},{"product_id":"life-theory-and-group-identity-in-hannah-arendt-s-thought-book-karin-fry-9783031108792","title":"Life, Theory, and Group Identity in Hannah Arendt's Thought","description":"AlthoughArendts theory is problematic when discussing issues concerning identity politics, she did think identity politics could be public and political and that effective political actions may occur within groups.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52410260029713,"sku":"NLS9783031108792","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783031108792.jpg?v=1758777448"},{"product_id":"life-theory-and-group-identity-in-hannah-arendt-s-thought-book-karin-fry-9783031108761","title":"Life, Theory, and Group Identity in Hannah Arendt's Thought","description":"AlthoughArendts theory is problematic when discussing issues concerning identity politics, she did think identity politics could be public and political and that effective political actions may occur within groups.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52455173619985,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52455174209809,"sku":"NLS9783031108761","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783031108761.jpg?v=1759373462"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/de-de\/collections\/autor-buecher-von-karin-fry.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
