Ethics and transcendance in philosophy of Levinas

Abstract EN

Emmanuel Levinas's ethic is based on the distance that separates the ego from the other.

this separation is a condition for giving freedom and due respect to other human, and we aim through this article to highlight the value of this commitment in terms of religious dealings.

we deal with the significance of patience, its relationship to the face, and the relationship between them, to highlight the importance of the face through the patterns of forms of transcendence, asymmetry, and freedom, mean highlighting the importance of this attitude and applying it to some ontological models such as death and trauma, in order to address the responsibility that they entail towards the other and towards humanity by not practicing violence on the other person, in it we always find the ethics requirement that links the self with the other in a transcendent way, derived from the holiness of the face, and seeing the influence of god through the face.
