There's More Than Meets the Eye: A Glance at Casey and Levinas Brian Schroeder, Rochester Institute of Technology ONE OF THE DIFFICULTIES that confronts Emmanuel Levinas's readers is his employment of an often abstract language to convey what, in his philosophy, are very concrete questions: What constitutes interpersonal ethics? How is the ethical demand communicated by the Other (l'Autrui) to the self? Concretizing and giving fuller expression to the intersubjective relationship, Edward Casey's phenomenological meditation on the glance provides an important supplement to Levinas's great contribution to ethical thinking—the paradigmatic gesture of the face to face encounter. |
