Meaning and Sense (1964)

Levina's discourse on method; in a critical confrontation with Merleau-Ponty & Heidegger, Levinas shows how his style of thought differs from phenomenology, a philosophical method which he continues to practice as an obligatory passage to any thinking beyond phenomenology.
Phenomenology: an approach that concentrates on the study of consciousness and the objects of direct experience; a philosophy or method of inquiry based on the premise that reality consists of objects and events as they are perceived or understood in human consciousness and not of anything independent of human consciousness.
