Time and the Opening of Ethics: On Two Modes of Dwelling
In this paper, I argue that Emmanuel Levinas’s Totality and Infinity gives us a picture of the construction of the ethical subject that requires the appropriation of a domicile so that certain conditions could be met that would allow openness to the advent of the ethical Other. The problem is that it simultaneously posits a realm of beings outside of ethics that are open to appropriation (things) without allowing for the possibility that these th…
Escaping the Binary: Gender Ideology and Edna’s Death in Kate Chopin’s The Awakening
The Cup, The Jug, and the Other: Salvador Dalí and Ontological Constitution
I argue that the paranoic-critical analysis that Salvador Dalí does of the The Angelus painting in his The Tragic Myth of Millet's Angelus emphasizes the figure of the omnipotent mother. This shows us a specific kind of ontological regime in which one would be totally subject to the other. This is particularly obvious in the way Dalí relates the painting to a coffee set leading to an experience of ontological instability producing generalized anx…
Derrida and the Time of Decision
Derrida's description of the aporia of decision-making is herein used to demonstrate how ethico-political concerns can already be found within the articulation of time and space as they are experienced by mortal beings, broadly understood
Expressive Vulnerabilities: Language and the Non-Human
Emmanuel Levinas’s work seemingly places a great emphasis on language leading some commentators towards a Kantian reading of him where moral consideration would be based on the moral patient’s capacity for reason with language functioning as a proxy for this. Although this reading is possible, a closer look at Levinas’s descriptions of language reveal that its defining characteristic is not reason but the capacity to express beyond any thematized…
Levinas and the Primacy of the Human
In this paper, I explain how anthropocentrism expresses itself in the work of Emmanuel Levinas and show how it also leaves openings for ecological concerns to seep in. This is done by analyzing Levinas’s concept of the Other and its relation to the third to show that the Other is understood as not only the one to whom I am responsible but also a responsible being in their own right who can question me. This establishes the Other as one who must h…
Levinas and the Problem of Predation: From Fraternity to Kinship
In this paper, Levinas's concept of fraternity is shown to rely upon an exclusion of beings deemed "faceless" and open for appropriation. By limiting ethics to humans, Levinas established nonhumans as that which could be given to the Other without questioning the justification of this appropriation. By looking at the use of kinship in recent ethnography, we find an alternative that posits nonhumans as valuable while maintaining the necessity of a…
