Outline of Final Research Achievements

Over the course of three years, I carried out research on "The Origin and Development of Responsibility : The search for the religious basis of the theory of the other." In 2012, I considered the topic of "otherness and negative theological discourse," investigating the implications of this discourse in relation to the "absolute other" by connecting the linguistic philosophies of Levinas and Derrida. In 2013, I examined "the tragic view" and "the theory of responsibility." Since the absolute other of Levinas and Derrida may be similar to God, I laid the groundwork for a consideration of the religious foundation of the theory of responsibility by concluding their arguments with Pascal observations, as seen through Goldmann’s concept of "the tragic view." In 2014, I revealed the religious position that led to Levinas and Derrida’s concepts of responsibility, by referring to Pascal and Kant’s theories of religion, especially those pertaining to the consciousness of original sin.
