About the Book

More than an introduction to Levinas's philosophical itinerary and the position where it matures, Liturgy of the Neighbor is also a critical discussion and original response to an acknowledged master of the twentieth century. The Levinas who appears in this dialogue is a thinker not only determined to get free of Western tradition, but also one whose project and claims shed new and penetrating light on the major figures whose work stood in his way. By moving to this level, where Levinas's teachers and opponents speak for themselves and not only in the voices Levinas has assigned to them, Bloechl presses the discussion beyond an evaluation of Levinas's readings of his interlocutors, and beyond the question of his success in getting free of them, to the more urgent task of weighing the stakes of reestablishing religion, and the ethics where it has meaning, after Nietzche and, above all, Heidegger.

Review :
"There is much to applaud in this work, much that is novel. It is a book that will be treasured..." -- Robert Bernasconi, Moss Chair of Excellence in Philosophy, University of Memphis. "This book is the first precise and detailed analysis of Levinas's oeuvre, including its relations to Husserl, Heidegger, and Sartre from the perspective of religion. It is an original and highly valuable contribution to the understanding of Levinas's philosophy..." -- Adriaan Peperzak, Schmitt Professor of Philosophy, Loyola University.
