ABSTRACT
The present investigation has as scope to rethink the question of silence, a theme so dear to contemporary philosophy and literature and why not say so urgent for theology, without falling, however, into the net of kata-bolic speeches or surrendering to the sym-bolic cutting discourses from modern ontology. It is, therefore, a question of advocating a third way for theology that passes through the sieve of the exaltation of para-bolic speeches that are capable of justifying the urgency of having to open a new (old) space of language to reduce the silence since the ethical-prophetic perspective arising from the primacy granted to the other as Good beyond Being, a trace of infinity. The background theme is very complex in itself, since one is dealing with the paradox of glory and perdition arising from silence due to the fact that it evokes at the same time the reverence and the unspeakable of the mystery and, on the other hand, refers to the inhumanity or deadly background that crosses the human/social condition marked by the naturalization of solitude. Faced with these challenges, this approach gets inspired by the attempt to establish a fruitful intrigue between the philosophy of otherness of the French-Lithuanian philosopher Emmanuel Levinas and the theology, bearing in mind to reinforce the idea/radical experience of Christianity that the incarnation changes all.
