%X This interpretation aims to comment upon a few passages from the essay ¡°La trace de l¡¯autre,¡± 1963, written by Levinas for a journal and included in En d¨¦couvrant l¡¯existence avec Husserl et Heidegger (1967) and subsequently in Humanisme de l¡¯autre homme (1972). In this text, ¡°God¡± is conceived as absolutely distant from the question of his existence or non-existence, which must however be traced back to his significance and, in particular, to the meaning of the name that enunciates him, the word ¡°God.¡± Here, in short, we refer to that measureless idea expressed by the excessive term of ¡°God.¡± In any case, this is not an argument that Levinas ¨C and I with him ¨C formulate as a theologian (as one may expect), but rather as an unfaithful phenomenologist, who aims to find ¡°the phenomenological concreteness¡± in which the word ¡°God¡± acquires significance, such as the concreteness of the ¡°face¡± or of the ¡°trace¡±.
