列维纳斯与女性主义

Lévinas and Feminism

列维纳斯所谓女性是他者的论点,与波伏瓦等人的批评相反,是对男性中心主义的有力批评。他主张,我们不能把女性视为男性的相关项,而应当努力从女性自身的特点出发来看待女性。女性是绝对的,是差异性质素本身,不能被融摄入同一性的总体之内。植根于性别差异的二元社会性概念中的男性与女性不是在两性关系中合而为一,而是真正成其为二,这是本真伦理关系的生成。

This paper explores Levinas＇s connection with feminism and engages in relevant discussions in the international academic circle. Contrary to Beauvoir＇s criticism, Levinas emphasizes the importance of considering women in their own right. This consideration is a forceful opposition against androcentrism. With Levinas the feminine is the absolute other and the very quality of difference that cannot be subsumed into the totality of the same. The two of sociality as based on the two of sexual difference do not fuse with each other in eros but purport to achieve genuine ethical relation in truly becoming two.
