Abstract

In this dialogue with Gianni Vattimo that tries to revise his different textual eras, as well as addressing and arguing the tones and central themes in his work, he takes us to the most problematic areas of philosophy: truth in its intimate relationship with violence, and the possibility of justice. Guided by his most recent ideas about Christianity and hermeneutical communism, Vattimo exposes his relationship with the other, with the other of philosophy and the philosophy of the other.
