The Face of the Other and the Trace of God contain essays on the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas, and how his philosophy intersects with that of other philosophers, particularly Husserl, Kierkegaard, Sartre, and Derrida. This collection is broadly divided into two parts: relations with the other, and the questions of God.

About the Author
Jeffrey Bloechl is Professor of Philosophy at Catholic University of Leuven (Louvain) in Belgium.

Reviews
"The Trace of God is a tremendous achievement, featuring the most vital voices in the conversation around Derrida and religion. Despite the ignorance-fueled backlash that has developed around Derrida's religious turn, this volume shows that we are not yet done with these profound questions, and that Derrida still has more to teach us." -- -Clayton Crockett University of Central Arkansas "...Contains work by some of the most important philosophers active in the field of contemporary continental philosophy in North America and Western Europe." -- -James A. Snyder Duquesne University
