Annotation Drabinski (philosophy, Grand Valley State University) argues that Husserl was a vital resource for Levinas throughout his philosophical career. He documents Levinas' transformation of the Husserlian themes of time, materiality, intentionality, and sense, placing them centrally within Levinas' ethical work. What emerges is an account of Levinas' constant and productive debate with the Husserlian traditions of phenomenology. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.
