| Summary: | This article aims to analyze the philosophical problem of God in the way it was considered by the Lithuanian-French philosopher Emmanuel Levinas, who understands it under the sign "otherwise than being". For this purpose, the text intends to show that the Levinasian refusal to address the question of God from the ontological horizon starts from a peculiar conception of being. The being is seen as incapable of safeguarding alterity in its compact unity, eradicating all difference and revealing itself as pure impersonality and neutrality. Based on this assumption, Levinas proposes to think God in "Other way than being" through the reading of Platonic "beyond essence" in an exclusively ethical hermeneutic key, in the proper sense that the latter term acquires in his thought. |
