The idea of trying to integrate all the different and the same in all, while the idea of infinity maintains separation between the other and the same. According to Levinas, the idea is all theoretical, while the idea of infinity is moral. Levinas argued that we can approach death as possibility only through that of others and that we grasp being as finite by way of their mortality. On the other hand, when secularized, the idea of infinity refers to something absolute in human consciousness (OE: §1), which motivates our repeated efforts at escaping ourselves into various ecstasies. Levinas says that the idea of infinity is not a representation of infinity. 1 Infinity overflows the idea of infinity. The idea of infinity is an overflowing of finite thought by infinite content.

Desire distinguishes itself from need in its incapacity to be satisfied. Whatever it achieves only inflames it. According to Levinas, it "does not arise from a lack or a limitation but from a surplus, from the idea of Infinity" (TI 210). emergence from himself, for Levinas it opens the self to the other. Thus, at third sight, in spite of the commonalities between Nietzsche and Levinas the difference is as big as it appeared at first sight.

we have called this relation metaphysical. It is premature and … insufficient to qualify it, by opposition to negativity, as positive. It would be false to qualify it as theological.

Autonomy and Heteronomy Every philosophy … The Other: Not Reducible to an Idea Levinas objects to systematizing an individual, the other, as one would systematize a philosophy, attempting – to borrow a word from Levinas – a “totalized” or rational explanation of a human being.21 One cannot do that, because the other, Levinas writes, “escapes my grasp by an essential dimension, even if I have him at my disposal.”22 The essential dimension refers … Levinas distinguishes between the idea of totality and the idea of infinity. The idea of trying to integrate all the different and the same in all, while the idea of infinity maintains separation between the other and the same. According to Levinas, the idea is all theoretical, while the idea of infinity is moral. idea of the infinite is not a kind of memory or recollection. Lévinas agrees. For Lévinas, this fact also distinguishes the idea of the infinite from the Heideggerian notion of the projection of one's possibilities, according to which Dasein is always more than it is:18 The thinker who has the idea of infinity is more than himself, and this The Other is infinitely transcendent reality.

The Kantian finitude is positively by sensibility, as the Heideggerian finitude by the being for death. This infinity referring to the finite marks the most anti-Cartesian point of Kantian philosophy as, later, of Heidegger:an Stanford Libraries' official online search tool for books, media, journals, databases, government documents and more. Levinas himself says in Ethics and Infinity that one could construct an ethics from his philosophy, though he also insists that it is not his concern to do so (90). This comment, or at least the first part of it, would seem to support Shaw in his objection to the deconstructionist position.

The principal theme of Lévinas’s work after World War II is the traditional place of ontology as “ first philosophy ”—the most fundamental philosophical discipline. According to Lévinas, ontology by its very nature attempts to create a totality in which what is different and “other” is necessarily reduced to sameness and identity.

( Totality and Infinity 297) The way in which the other presents himself, exceeding the idea of the other in me, we here name face. Such a surplus, we should note, is crucial for understanding Levinas's concept of Desire. Desire distinguishes itself from need in its incapacity to be satisfied. Whatever it achieves only inflames it. According to Levinas, it "does not arise from a lack or a limitation but from a surplus, from the idea of Infinity" (TI 210).
