In inhabitation and in labor, this “I” acquires a position and appropriates a range of resources. The encounter with another who perceptibly faces does not give rise to a collective being-with (Mitsein); instead, the other who faces intrudes upon my enjoyment and possession, contesting them, putting demands on my resources. In Totality and Infinity, Levinas centered on speech, its vocative and imperative force, as the experience in which the other faces. He did emphasize that the other speaks with his needy, vulnerable, and mortal body and that I respond not with my voice only but with my body that has a position and a posture supported on a home base and that exists in appropriating the resources of my environment.
Paris: Minuit, 1988. TR New Talmudic Readings. Trans. Richard A. Cohen. : Duquesne University Press, 1999. NL Nouvelles lectures talmudiques. Paris: Minuit, 1995. Introduction BETTINA BERGO AND JILL STAUFFER EMMANUEL LEVINAS is no doubt the most original ethical thinker of the last century. And Friedrich Nietzsche arguably poses him the deepest ethical challenge. As such, it is often supposed that the two have little in common, not least because of the radical difference in approach and in style that separates their works.
The problem with the model is not so much its asymmetry as its lack of reciprocity: it is not open to the other and as such cannot produce subjects who respond. It reveals what Katz calls “the paradox of education”: teaching, on the Platonic model, cannot teach what it is that students need in order to be able to learn—the desire to learn. Socrates and Nietzsche’s Zarathustra both embody this model, though Zarathustra struggles against it. Katz delineates this struggle and then compares it to what she calls Levinas’s Talmudic approach, where the teacher is someone who knows but also undergoes self-doubt and the student is someone who learns but also someone who teaches.
