Abstract

This paper aims to show Levinas's basic criticism of the concept of representational (in general) or intentional (in particular) consciousness. It will not be completely linked to the establishment of ethics; therefore, the study will work with the books Totality and Infinity, Otherwise than Being or Beyond Essence, Of God Who Comes to Mind. It should be noted that, for Levinas, the purpose of criticizing intentional consciousness is to establish ethics as the first philosophy and he submitted himself to this purpose. However, the authors consider that such criticism does not have to be linked solely to Levinasian purposes; it could illuminate other contexts in which the proposal for non-intentional consciousness would contribute to renewing contents and practices. The human sciences first come to mind, specifically their research processes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
