An opportunity to speak and be understood, which opportunity is so strongly emphasized by the contemporary philosophy of dialogue and the philosophy of encounter, discloses man in the very depth of his being. At the same time, it creates a phenomenon of encounter with another man, it initiates relationship with "the other", with the neighbour (Autrui). Yet an encounter with the neighbour always has its profound meaning; it is an encounter with the Infinite, with God who is particularly revealed by the neighbour's face. Emmanuel Levinas's thinking, one of the most outstanding philosophers of dialogue, is based on such a basis.
