{"product_id":"9780804774680","title":"A Covenant of Creatures: Levinas's Philosophy of Judaism","description":"\"I am not a particularly Jewish thinker,\" said Emmanuel Levinas, \"I am just a thinker.\" This book argues against the idea, affirmed by Levinas himself, that \u003ci\u003eTotality and Infinity and Otherwise Than Being\u003c\/i\u003e separate philosophy from Judaism. By reading Levinas's philosophical works through the prism of Judaic texts and ideas, Michael Fagenblat argues that what Levinas called \"ethics\" is as much a hermeneutical product wrought from the Judaic heritage as a series of phenomenological observations. Decoding the Levinas's philosophy of Judaism within a Heideggerian and Pauline framework, Fagenblat uses biblical, rabbinic, and Maimonidean texts to provide sustained interpretations of the philosopher's work. Ultimately he calls for a reconsideration of the relation between tradition and philosophy, and of the meaning of faith after the death of epistemology.","brand":"Stanford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47067969421552,"sku":"9780804774680","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780804774680_p0.jpg?v=1763727337","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780804774680","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
