Summary/Abstract: I stand for a philosophical writing engaged in an ethical relation with discussedauthors. The relation despite its obvious immeasurable value is based on a concretecontext of the encounter, performed by a signifier. Gratitude is the phenomenon,which describes properly the ethical relation, for it at once opens the absolute dimensionof an unique other and expresses some onthical content of gestures, giftsand signs, which Myself receives from the others. The article criticises Buber’stheory, due to its ignorance of difference, corporeality, linguistic sign, passivity, etc.For that reason I use Derridian concepts, that enhance (but consequently deconstruct)Levinasian principles.
