I have always identified myself with thinkers such Martin Buber Carl Rogers and I am glad identify with the optical refractions of this gentle philosopher Emmanuellis Levinas.Thanks.
Wow! Thank you very much. Can't wait to see the rest at the Timeline website! Extremely well explained, clear leadership of thought. Thank you very much.
The other is radically "not me" - she is an absolute other. The other and the me do not form a totality. Nevertheless, the other appears only because I appear, and I appear only because the other appears - but this is not reducing the other to the self- same. This fact arises from infinity, not psychology or being. It invites us into the "nearness" - the "welcome", the "sociality". It is not me welcoming - the welcome, the nearness, the sociality are instructed by infinity. Seing the face of the other brings up infinity. His book "Otherwise than being" is the book to read, as it was written to answer Derrida's critique of "Totality and Infinity". We are both free (Sartre) and "hostage" (of love- election).
Dear lecturer, thank you for a very nice talk on Levinas' thought. Please consider not calling it by the somewhat pejorative "Old Testament." Most contemporary scholars call it the Hebrew Bible.
@@kenwightman2668 oh dear, .... the lecture, the lived experience of levenas is to acknowledge the experience of the other (the sacred inter-subjectivity). That means.... actually experiencing the other in the self as well. What would it be like to refer to the Torah as the torah.. and the christian bible as your new testament (since that is the name you go by) and the Quran as such... and the Bhagavad Gita as such? What do you think? I can go to China and ask for rice but if I don't say it in mandarine/cantonese ....who am I talking to? i hope to share a bowl of rice in order and feed many.... and share the neurolinguistics of preferred words... not the ones I say because I feel like it in shared society. You just told someone who kindly shared some information with you.... and you did not witness their experience. Why? is there only 1 story that is true? Are not all welcome?
Confusing and invites suspicion: I suggest you don't bother with this video. It breaks off 1/4 of the way through and sends you to a website which asks for an expensive subscription fee for other materials, but does not list the rest of this lecture among the materials provided. A truly bizarre experience created by what appears to be St John's University, London, England. I say appears, because though there is the name, and accents, there are no direct links to the university on the website you are referred to. Overall this experience has a Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker feel to it. It looks like an attempt to bring extraordinarily informative academic materials to a wider audience, but one you get there, tis more like the Bakker's Heritage Park. A Wonderful 24 minute lecture that disappointingly breaks off mid-sentence with no explanation and sort of tries to sell you a 59 Les Paul in cherry condition- suggesting you go to a website. When you get to the website you will be asked to pay an expensive subscription to hear the rest of the lecture and offers many more lectures. The other materials look excellent, but I could not find the continuation of this Levinas lecture listed anywhere on the website, there is no explanation of why it is not there, nor if the lecture will ever be on the website. I get the feeling that if I pay the subscription, I will be cheated. These look like excellent materials used here, on TH-cam, in an extraordinarily unwise manner that is sure to turn people off.
I find the whole approach behind this course and video extremely rude, annoying and misleading. In the first place, this is not an extract. This is a course that all of a sudden breaks off, basically urging you to go to the website where you can buy it. I feel intellectual blackmailed. So there are no introductions or warnings. You just start listening to a moving story about a philosopher that underlines the importance of the other and all off a sudden it just breaks off into a commercial about some timeline project. A rudeness that I have yet to find in commercial corporations. What I find also really flabbergasting is that this rude approach is deployed by a school of mission which trains christian ministers. From christians I would expact a different approach than this commercial brutality. On top of that, that you dare to abuse Levinas, the philosopher of being careful with the other, is really really unbelievable to me. I am truly appalled!
Interesting! It's amazing that there is 25 minutes of amazing content for FREE. I bet it took a lot of money and effort to put this together. I'm happy to get whatever we can get :)

How did I just recently discover this guy’s philosophy?
Thank you very much! Prof. Michael Barnes
That was great. Beautifully expressed. I look forward to the next video!
Thank you very much
Thanks blood
This is such a great video. I've looked in your timeline where may I find the rest of it please.
sadly
you have to pay for the rest
Wow! Thank you very much. Can't wait to see the rest at the Timeline website! Extremely well explained, clear leadership of thought. Thank you very much.
Were you able to find the full video? I was interested in watching it in its entirety too and didn't have luck at the website.
Thank you do much... Now I understand
Marvelous. Thank you so much for this timeline project.
Great breakdown of Levinas, very informative with a charming phonetic flow.
Such an excellent timeline, thank you so much.

It's not perjorative if you are Christian. The Old Testament is essential to Christian theology, and it"s called that for a reason.

What makes you feel entitled to more free material? I’m grateful we got this 24 minutes for free.
Discover the Other - why not begin with the Face of the Palestinian.

Why not be quiet for a second and reflect that your very own utopian ideology is itself a totalizing system that absorbs the other.

You'll get over yourself eventually...

While it is annoying that the videos are not full length, you should be grateful that it wasn't just the first 5 minutes.
Your sense of entitlement is disgusting. This is just a thinly veiled attempt at sounding smart.
Get over yourself.
Lmao
Settle down and go for a jog. You’re probably a slob.
Why the appeal? Because it tickles ears. The Jewish soul speaks only of his own.
