Abstract:
This article will discuss the ethics of French philosopher, Emmanuel Levinas, of which the Other is the main topic. In the first section, we will describe how death is a matter of ethics, because it is caused by a faceless murderer. But in precisely the helplessness of the dead, we touch the most affecting face of the Other. In the second section, we will describe how face is the ethical resistance against any form of violence. In the meantime, I, as the subject, would be brought in case of the calling of the Other, and situated in an ethically asymmetric relationship to him. I will in this relationship take the responsibility for the Other. In the final section, we will discuss outlets for ethics and the possibilities of metaphysics.
