Education In Human Creative Existential Planning
Education is the transmission of knowledge and skill from one generation to another, and is vitally significant for the growth and unfolding of the living individual. The present collection of papers focuses on the underpinnings of the creative workings of the human strategies of reason.
De L’Éthique À La Justice : Langage et politique dans la philosophie de Lévinas = Language and politics in the philosophy of Levinas
Seeks to show that even if man is the event of the understanding of being, the whole of man and all meaning cannot be reduced to the understanding of being alone. On the political side, he questions the possibility of subjecting the totalitarian tendency of all politics to a search for justice that does not ultimately depend on politics itself. But these two sides are one. The discovery of a meaning beyond the comprehension of being - ethics - at the same time provides the source of the renewal of justice. Thus, by this double question, Lévinas presents to us the main threads of our investigation: a meaning beyond the comprehension of being and its ethical scope, which we call “language” and which we explore in the perspective of its importance.
Man as a place of God : Levinas' Hermeneutics of Kenosis
Man as a Place of God is an examination of Levinas’ philosophy of religion in the light of his ethics and anthropology.

Logos of phenomenology and phenomenology of the logos ; Book Two : The Human Condition in-the-Unity-of-Everything-there-is-alive Individuation, Self, Person, Self-determination, Freedom, Necessity
The Human Condition-in-the-unity-of-everything-there-is-alive, under whose aegis the present selection of essays falls, offers the urgently needed new approach to reinvestigating humanness. While recent advances in the neurosciences, genetics and bio-engineering challenge the traditional abstract conception of "human nature", indicating its transformability, thus putting in question the main tenets of traditional philosophical anthropology, in the new perspective of the Human Creative Condition the human individual is seen in its emergence and unfolding within the dynamic networks of the logos of life, and within the evolution of living types.
Logos of phenomenology and phenomenology of the logos ; Book Three : Logos of history - logos of life, historicity, time, nature, communication, consciousness, Aalterity, Cculture
Situated at the crossroads of nature and culture, physics and consciousness, cosmos and life, history – intimately conjoined with time – continues to puzzle the philosopher as well as the scientist. Does brute nature unfold a history? Does human history have a telos? Does human existence have a purpose, Phenomenology of life projects a new interrogative system for reexamining these questions.We are invited to follow the logos of life as it spins in innumerable ways the interplay of natural factors, human passions, social forces, science and experience – through interruptions and kairic moments of accomplishment .
