| Zusammenfassung: | This paper aims to portray the human being as spirit, in dialogue with Levinas' first philosophy. The relation between time and eternity is addressed in the work of both Kierkegaard and Levinas. However, in Kierkegaard's notion of spirit there lies a discernible further development of the relation between the subject and that which transcends it (that is, exteriority or otherness). In Kierkegaard's authorship, the absolute exteriority of the eternal does not break or suspend the finite structure of the subject. Contrary to Levinas' critique of the Danish philosopher, the possibility of a life is opened in which neither the external world nor the relation with the others is disdained. |
