It is the aim of this contribution to question the two conceptions of violence in the later Levinas. One of the face, the other the violence that must be overcome by the face. The article argues that this cannot be understood fully without taking into account Levinas’ Talmudic philosophy. By focusing on the notion of trauma in the later work of Levinas, it is argued that Levinas’ idea of the human subject is understood as radical vulnerability. This idea is evaluated on the basis of short comparisons with the thinking of Lacan, Žižek and Camus. The claim is made that to Levinas, violence is not a phenomenon to be eliminated by rational ethics, but one that forms the very notion of humanity itself. This is elaborated by showing how the Bible takes on a central role in Levinas’ thought.

一开始就是暴力:伊曼纽尔·列维纳斯谈宗教与暴力

这篇文章的目的是质疑后来列维纳斯的两种暴力概念。一张脸,另一张脸必须克服的暴力。文章认为,如果不考虑列维纳斯的塔木德哲学,就无法完全理解这一点。通过关注列维纳斯后期作品中的创伤概念,有人认为列维纳斯的人类主体思想被理解为根本性的脆弱性。这个想法是在与拉康、齐泽克和加缪的思想进行简短比较的基础上进行评估的。声称对列维纳斯来说,暴力不是理性伦理可以消除的现象,而是构成人性本身概念的一种现象。这是通过展示圣经如何在列维纳斯的思想中扮演核心角色来阐述的。
