摘要

透過將「自我－他者關係」類比於「護病關係」，本文嘗試將法國哲學家列維納斯的他者現象學連結起護理人員的照護經驗。列維納斯的哲學強調他者的絕對優先性，並描寫自我如何透過對他者召喚的回應而成為一個「為他的主體」。基於此，本文依次論述：他者概念的意涵、召喚－回應的基本結構、以及透過他者之死的問題總括列維納斯接待倫理學之要義。

This article attempts to connect the French philosopher Emmanuel Levinas' phenomenology of others and nursing experience. We can apply his characterization about ”the self-the other relation” to ”nurse-patient relationship.” Levinas's main topic is to defend the absolute primacy of the other and to describe that how one can be transformed from ”the egoistic self” to ”the self for the other” by the calling-response dynamics. Based on Levinas' ethics of hospitality, this article also tries to clarify the concept of the other, to describe the basic structure that underlies the calling of the other and the response of the self, and to summarize nurse-patient relationship through the death of the other.
