Resumen
MESSINA, Aïcha Liviana. HOW LIGHT CAN LAUGHTER BE? NIETZSCHE AND LEVINAS FACING THE "END OF MAN". Nómadas [online]. 2012, n.37, pp.157-169. ISSN 0121-7550.
The article starts from the following reading: on different occasions, Levinas talks about Nietzsche's thought, his idea of laughter which "rejects language"; surprisingly, Levinas, unlike Heidegger, doesn't place Nietzsche, as the last of the metaphysics, but displaces him in this history, highlighting instead the "extreme youth" of the Nietzschean laughter. This article proposes to show how the Nietzschean laughter is linked to what Levinas called a "subjectivity of the subject innocent from ontological conjunctions". It concludes with a refection about shame and man's limits.
Palabras clave : Levinas; humanism; laughter; writing.
