Resumo

This research aims to shed light on Jean-Luc Nancy's philosophical contribution to the concept of the other . Nancy's approach to the other adopts a new form of philosophy away from the approaches of other philosophers, as the concept of the other has become a new hermeneutical station of self-awareness and not an altruistic or external view of it, as has been known since Descartes to this day . The other has become according to the pattern( being-with ) another who examines the self and reveals its identity and relationship with others . The other - as Nancy sees it-is not just a mirror reflection of ourselves, but a radical otherness that challenges and enriches our understanding of the world. Meeting with the other opens up new possibilities of meaning, innovative ways of being in the world. The other is the context through which the meaning of existence is formed or on the basis of which the existing other is dealt with. This approach has opened the door for philosophical discussion towards further contributions regarding the concept of the other.
