For Chinese philosophers there are special reasons to pursue an interest in Levinas, centering on his regard for ethics, rather than Husserlian epistemology or Heideggerian ontology, as first philosophy, a perspective that can be compared to the priority of a moral metaphysics for major figures in contemporary Neo-Confucianism. The thirteen outstanding contributors explain and assess other crucial features of Levinas's philosophy with clarity, elegance and powerful insight. |
