Summary |
Directly challenging the prevailing interpretation, Corey Beals explores the ideas of twentieth-century philosopher Emmanuel Levinass concept of love, loves relation to wisdom, and how love makes the Other visible to us. Distinguishing love from other types of wisdom, Beals argues that Levinass "wisdom of love" is a real possibility, one which grants priority to ethics over ontology |
