Levinas, Adorno, and the Ethics of the Material Other - SUNY series in Contemporary French Thought
Eric S. Nelson
This book sets up a dialogue between Emmanuel Levinas and Theodor W. Adorno, using their thought to address contemporary environmental and social-political situations. Eric S. Nelson explores the non-identity thinking of Adorno and the ethics of the Other of Levinas with regard to three areas of concern: the ethical position of nature and inhuman material others such as environments and animals; the bonds and tensions between ethics and religion and the formation of the self through the dynamic of violence and liberation expressed in religious discourses; and the problematic uses and limitations of liberal and republican discourses of equality, liberty, tolerance, and their presupposition of the private individual self and autonomous subject. Thinking with and beyond Levinas and Adorno, this work examines the possibility of an anarchic hospitality and solidarity between material others and sensuous embodied life.
