Abstracts

EN

The aim of the paper is to present Alain Finkielkraut’s work as rooted in philosophical thinking of Emmanuel Lévinas and Hannah Arendt. For this purpose authors emphasize the relationship between Finkielkraut’s analysis of the crisis of contemporary culture and his interpretation of Lévinas’s philosophical thought, as well as with Arendt’s. Authors focus on main concepts developed by Arendt and L´evinas, which, as they argue, became essential for Finkielkraut’s critical approach: otherness, responsibility, justice, understanding of politics, and public sphere. Authors argue also that Finkielkraut’s imaginative readings of Lévinas and Arendt are not only an important contribution to understanding of both thinkers but also testify to the originality of his work.
