The ethical thought of the Danish philosopher K.E. Løgstrup (1905-1981) is currently enjoying a revival of interest within Anglophone philosophy.¹ In particular, Løgstrup’s signature theory of expressions of life – the theory that some phenomena expressive of human interdependence, such as trust and compassion, are fundamental to our capacity to respond excellently to the needs of others – is receiving increasing attention.
