Going beyond metaphysics does not make sense. However, it is possible to go below it, and thus radicalize Heidegger’s approach. He rethought the fundamental concepts of Greek thought in the sense of an ontology, starting with their ethical bedrock. Considering that it is not ontology, but ethics, that is fundamental, Levinas radicalizes the investigation. Nevertheless, he misses its meaning by naming it metaphysical and by setting it beyond being. Another approach to ethics is possible, starting from good, achieved, not as an idea to be contemplated, but as the object of our desires. To go below metaphysics is to re-found it, like ethics, on the human good.
