While Levinas enjoys prominence in the philosophical and scholarly community, especially in Europe, there are few if any books or articles written that take Levinas's extremely difficult to understand, if not obtuse, philosophy and apply it to the everyday lives of real people struggling to give greater meaning and purpose, especially ethical meaning, to their personal lives. This book attempts to fill in the large gap in the Levinas literature, mainly through using a Levinasian-inspired, ethically-infused psychoanalytic approach.PsychoanalysisEthicsPsychoanalysis.Ethics.150.195170.922Marcus Paul1462996FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910799972703321In Search of the Good Life3873325UNINA
