Opis

This book explores Levinas phenomenology of ethical motivation. Levinas is grounded in radical alterity, the knowledge that ethics exists only when we are fully separate from someone else, allowing us to experience connection with one another. In this book, the author locates this ethics in embodiment, emotions, and imaginations and explores the intersection of aesthetics and education. "
