Paul Marcus

In Search of the Good Life

Emmanuel Levinas, Psychoanalysis and the Art of Living

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

There are few if any books or articles written that take Levinas's, philosophy and apply it to the everyday lives of real people struggling to give greater meaning and purpose. This book attempts to fill in the large gap in the Levinas literature, mainly through using a Levinasian-inspired, ethically-infused psychoanalytic approach.
