  • """Every other is truly other, but no other is wholly other." This is the claim that Aspects of Alterity defends. Taking up the question of otherness that so fascinates contemporary continental philosophy, this book asks what it means for something or someone to be other than the self." "After a thorough assessment and critique of otherness in Levinas's and Marcel's work, including a discussion of the relationship of ethical alterity to theological assumption, Aspects of Alterity traces the transmission and development of these two conceptions of otherness. Ultimately, Aspects of Alterity makes a case for a hermeneutic account of otherness."--Jacket."
