VLADIMIR JANKELEVITCH: THE TIME OF FORGIVENESS
Book ID/图书代码： 04831114B74710
English Summary/英文概要： Vladimir Jankélévitch: The Time of Forgiveness traces the reflections of the French philosopher and musicologist Vladimir Jankelevitch on the conditions and temporality of forgiveness in relation to creation, history, and memory. The author demonstrates the influence of Jewish and Christian thought on Jankelevitch’s philosophy and compares his ideas about the gift character of forgiveness, the role of retributive emotions in conceptions of justice, and the limits of reason with those of Aristotle, Butler, Kant, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Scheler, Arendt, Derrida, Levinas, and Ricoeur.
The Shoah was the pivotal historical event in Jankelevitch’s life. As this book shows, Jankelevitch’s question "Is forgiveness possible as a response to evil?" remains a potent philosophical conundrum today. Paradoxically, for Jankelevitch, evil is both the impetus and the obstacle to forgiveness.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《寬恕的時間》追溯法國哲學家兼音樂家弗拉基米爾．楊凱列維奇(Vladimir Jankélévitch)連結創造、歷史及記憶，對於寬恕的條件與時間性的反思。
作者於本書描述猶太及天主教思想對於楊凱列維奇哲學的影響，將楊凱列維奇對於寬恕的特徵的想法，正義的概念下報復心理的角色，以及理性的界限，拿來與亞里斯多德、巴特勒、康德、齊克果、尼采、謝勒、鄂蘭、德里達、列維納斯與呂格爾比較。
猶太大屠殺是楊凱列維奇生命中關鍵的歷史事件，如同此書顯示，楊凱列維奇拋出的問題「寬恕是否可能成為對邪惡的回應？」仍是現今重要的哲學難題。矛盾的是，對於楊凱列維奇來說，邪惡同時是寬恕的原動力及阻礙。(Ramona)
Awards/获奖情况：阿倫．魯尼小心處理楊凱列維奇的純寬恕雙線邏輯。楊凱列維奇的兩本重要著作有顯著的差異，但卻能作為一個整體來閱讀，作者展現柏格森、尼采、謝勒帶給楊凱列維奇的豐富影響，同時檢驗楊凱列維奇與其他思想家的關係，如：鄂蘭及德里達（德里達比想像中更接近楊凱列維奇），帶來令人感動的成果，提醒我們寬恕於人類存在的重要地位。

《寬恕的時間》是二十世紀法國哲學家思想的深刻分析。魯尼以宗教與哲學傳統純熟地解釋楊凱列維奇對於邪惡與寬恕精巧複雜的觀點，帶來對楊凱列維奇思想敏銳、啟發的詮釋及對於寬恕豐富的沉思。

"Looney gives a general introduction to Jankélévitch’s thought, then goes on to provide an in-depth study of Jankélévitch’s book Forgiveness by comparing and contrasting it with thinkers such as Max Scheler, Nietzsche, Levinas, Derrida, Aristotle, and other prominent writers in moral thought." -Andrew Kelley, Bradley University
"Aaron Looney carefully lays out the hyperbolic logic of pure forgiveness demanded by Jankélévitch. He shows us that the two most important books by Jankélévitch both differ dramatically from each other and yet can be read as being in continuity. Looney presents a rich tapestry in which he considers such influences on Jankélévitch as Bergson, Nietzsche, and Scheler. He also examines the relationship between Jankélévitch and such thinkers as Arendt and Derrida (showing Derrida to be much closer to Jankélévitch than one might think). The result is a moving work in which we are reminded just how central forgiveness is to human existence."--Bruce Ellis Benson, Wheaton College
"Vladimir Jankélévitch: The Time of Forgiveness is an insightful analysis of the thought of the twentieth-century French philosopher, providing a long overdue consideration of Jankélévitch in English. Aaron Looney deftly explicates Jankélévitch’s subtle and complex perspectives on evil and forgiveness within religious and philosophical traditions. The result is a sensitive and evocative interpretation of Jankélévitch and a wonderfully rich meditation on forgiveness."--Johannes Brachtendorf, Eberhard Karls Universität
