| 520 | |a Levinas provides an original interpretation of the biblical idea of creation ex nihilo, which goes beyond the traditional understanding in terms of divine power and fabrication. In the first part, this article presents the challenge that the idea of creation poses to traditional logic and ontology by referring to Maimonides's advocacy of creation in opposition to Aristotle's assumption of the eternity of the world. Levinas repeats Maimonides's gesture by enlarging the notion of logos and transposing the idea of creation from the ontological realm to the ethical domain of interpersonal relations. In the second part, it shows how Levinas subjects the idea of creation to a phenomenological reduction, tracing its representational content back to the paradoxical experience of "createdness" within the subject itself. The original meaning of creation is to be sought in relation to the ethical call of the other (person), and within the subject's passive condition qua responsibility. In this way, the initially religious idea of creation receives a broader philosophical significance as it draws upon a common human experience. | ||
