MOREIRA, Jacqueline de Oliveira y VAZQUEZ MORO, Ulpiano. A concepção de subjetividade em Lévinas: da solidão da hipóstase ao encontro com a alteridade. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2010, vol.24, n.47, pp.55-72. ISSN 1982-596X.
We will try to entail the levinasian philosophy, starting with the criticism to the I as it is conceived by modern thought, and then proceeding towards the author's proposal, which reveals alterity as a condition of possibility for subjectivity. Lévinas reveals that, to exist, the existent must reassure him or herself in a viril way, and by doing that, he or she takes up a position of solitude. The encounter with death will bring something that cannot be assimilated. Death appears as an alterity; Lévinas does not think of death as "nothing", but as a mystery that comes as a limit to my solitary self, and presents the possibility of the existence of something beyond myself. Following that, Lévinas brings together love and death; experiencing love is like death; it is something that takes me over, something over which I have no control; something, however, I survive. And, coming from Eros, the subject engages in the adventures of parenthood and fertility. These experiences reveal the face of the other on the offspring that announces my responsibility over the offspring and all those faces that clamor for justice. It is in this trajectory that the subject constructs him or herself outside the essence.
