Abstract: This study focuses on Emanuel Lévinas, a representative of the 20th century dialogical philosophy and Jewish theology, who, in breaking down previously familiar philosophical and anthropological constructs, offers in his ethics the possibility of both accepting and understanding the other (of reaching the Other). Although Lévinas drew directly on Martin Buber‘s ideas for his dialogical principle, there are moments in which their conceptions differ significantly from each other (the Other, the Face). The aim of the study is not only to acquaint the reader with Lévinas‘s conception of philosophy and theology, but also with his life and the religious, philosophical, and literary influences that contributed greatly to the development of Lévinas‘s personality and can offer the reflective subject of today a way out of the identity crisis of values and culture caused by the instability of the present.

Keywords:  Other, Lévinas, Human, Infinity, Totality.
