Rezension zu „Riessen, R: Man as a Place of God “
From the reviews:"We are now in the second generation of Levinas studies, and this volume properly presumes a familiarity with both the Levinas corpus and a fair number of first generation studies. The author is a professor at the Protestant Theological University in Kampen, The Netherlands; and her book bestrides philosophy and theology much in the way Levinas's own works do. ... Renée van Riessen has presented this theme clearly and persuasively in a welcome contribution to Levinas studies." (Andrew Tallon, American Catholic Philosophical Quarterly, Vol. 83 (4), 2009)
