description | This paper discusses the Levinasian thesis of the inevitability of the Said, having asits background certain epistemological issues arising from that thesis. I begin by showing thecontraposition between truth of disclosure and truth of testimony, as Levinas defines them, andpoint out the most radical differences between the two. I then reconstruct, with subjectivity as theconnecting thread, a way of relating both kinds of truth, showing how the thesis on the inevitabilityof the Said is relevant to epistemological discussions. I conclude by suggesting some considerationswith regard to a renewed rationality. |

Recebido: 25/09/2016Aceito: 18/12/2017 El propósito de este artículo es exponer la tesis levinasiana de la inevitabilidad de lo Dicho, teniendo como trasfondo algunas cuestiones epistemológicas que suscita. Para esto, se comienza presentando la contraposición que establece Levinas entre verdad del desvelamiento y verdad del testimonio, destacando sus diferencias más radicales. Posteriormente, teniendo la subjetividad como hilo conductor, se reconstruye el camino que relacionaría ambos tipos de verdad, mostrando cómo la tesis de la inevitabilidad de lo Dicho adquiere relevancia en las discusiones epistemológicas. Finalmente, se concluye indicando algunos aportes de esta reflexión para las consideraciones acerca de una racionalidad renovada.
