Editorial notes<\/strong>:
\nThis is Shai\u2019s first reference to the French philosopher of Lithuanian Jewish ancestry, Emmanuel Levinas. Levinas\u2019 ideas appear to have made an impact on Shai\u2019s outlook as he refers to him 11 more times<\/a> in the following three and a half years, most notably in a post entitled \u201cPerceptions of wisdom in the Talmud with Emmanuel Levinas<\/a>\u201c.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Levinas[I]<\/sup><\/a> says that we come to be ourselves, to which we start off in a relationship.
\nHe also knows that this is a journey perhaps in metaphysics (ever-growing).
\nDescartes began a philosophical journey. A sort of lifting oneself by one’s own bootstraps?
\nCurious. What right has man over a wild man, that is acting in the wild like an animalTop[II]<\/sup><\/a>.
