The Metaphysical Desire in Emmanuel Levinas

Talking about The metaphysical Desire in Emmanuel Levinas is trying to understand the sense of desire beyond what is meant by this term routinely, understanding that can be found in dictionaries. The objective is to understand the notion of metaphysical wish from the philosopher Emmanuel Levinas's work using as support (mostly) the metaphysical notions of infinity and Other. For this purpose, the method consisted in a bibliographic research about the subject, performing an hermeneutic on some stretches of Totality and Infinity, one of the main works of that author and in seeking a philosophical dictionary and a philosophical work (in this case, The Symposium, of Plato) way, to wish your mind. Therefore begining from the common desire, we seek to understand the metaphysical Desire in Levinas clarifying whether, first, the meaning of the "metaphysical" adjective - which will involve the investigation of levinasian understanding of metaphysics - for, after this clarification, reflect on the ethical relationship based on metaphysical Desire.
