CARVALHO, L. L. P. Lévinas, Blanchot: The genre of Philosophy. 2019. Thesis (Doctorate Degree) – Faculdade de Filosofia, Letras e Ciências Humanas. Departamento de Filosofia, Universidade de São Paulo, São Paulo, 2019. Our work has, although indirectly, plural intentions, being the most evident of them, to approach the intellectual relation established between Emmanuel Lévinas and Maurice Blanchot. This relationship has, as a subsidy for its development, the fields of philosophy and literature, which will be approached from the peculiar perspectives of Blanchot. Moreover, we use the concept of community as conceived by Blanchot as the articulating axis of his thought, which is highlighted in relation to other relevant themes primarily the concept of outside and neutral, indispensable for understanding Blanchetian thinking and has a conception related to the themes studied by Lévinas. Keyords: Blanchot, Lévinas, Philosophy, Literature, Community

Before his conversion to Christianity, Augustine conceived of God as a supremely good being who is “incorruptible, inviolable, and immutable ” ( Conf. 7.1.1). At the same time, he was aware of the existence of evil in the world, evil that can be divided into two major classes. First, physical objects have limitations and defects. In particular, the limitations of living things result in hardship, pain, illness, and death. Secondly, there are people who behave wickedly and whose souls are characterized by such vices as pride, envy, greed, and lust.

Augustine on evil and original sin

Time and creation in Augustine

The composition of the human person is a central issue for Augustine. He addresses it in a philosophico-theological way; particularly in The Soliloquies and in The Confessions . What is at stake here is his exposition of “what” constitutes a person’s being human. This paper refers to some of his key ideas in this regard and attempts to identify and establish what this great thinker understands by specific terminology: the soul, the mind, and the self. His hunger for knowledge of the self helps his readers to ponder on the shifting emphasis between interiority and exteriority as well as a person’s consciousness and selfhood. Augustine wrestles with the concept of the soul, but at no point does he minimise the role of the intellect. After examining four definitions given by Augustine of the human person, this paper attempts to clarify all underpinnings related to this subject, as to be able to answer the topic in question.
