Emmanuel Levinas and the Hospitality of Images
When it comes to interfaith dialogue between the Abrahamic religions, there is a prevailing assumption that the best place to start is with Scripture, with a common emphasis on ‘the book’.

520 | |a When it comes to interfaith dialogue between the Abrahamic religions, there is a prevailing assumption that the best place to start is with Scripture, with a common emphasis on ‘the book’. In this essay, I want to suggest a different route. The visual arts, I will contend, can offer a powerful but under-appreciated resource for inter-religious dialogue, stimulating genuinely new ways of seeing the Other. I will make my case for the hospitality of images through a re-reading of the Jewish philosopher Emmanuel Levinas. While Levinas can be sharply critical of the visual arts, at the same time a strong aesthetic vein runs through his work, which has been consistently obscured or overlooked by scholars. Exploiting such visual dimensions, I will read Levinas against the grain, suggesting ways in which art might meet the stringent demands of his ethical vision, and as such offer an ideal site for interfaith dialogue. | ||
