Resumen de Alterità e intersoggettività nelle opere dell’immediato secondo dopoguerra di Emmanuel Levinas
This study focuses on Levinas’ works in the years immediately after the Second World War. The aim is to highlight the constitutive characteristics of the concept of otherness and its originality in relation to the Husserlian thematization of intersubjectivity as presented in the Cartesian Meditations. Levinas was one of the French translators of this text which had been published in France almost twenty years before its publication in Germany. This article does not only analyse the formulation of the Levinassian philosophical proposal but gives further insight into the study of the peculiarity of French phenomenology by linking it to the relevant role played in it by intersubjectivity link with the role played in it by the issue of intersubjectivity. This article examines some concepts that will persist in Levinas’ subsequent production such as insomnia, hypostasis, death, femininity, eros, fecundity.
