The paper compares their account on metaphor that shows well their position toward religion. Both authors agree that metaphor is connected to the realm of {\textquotedblleft}beyond concept{\textquotedblright} but Levinas identifies the metaphor, in Carnets de Captivit{\'e}, with monotheistic divinity. Derrida does not. The conclusion is that Derrida cannot be considered negative theologian nor religious thinker.}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.31577/filozofia.2023.78.4.5}, url = {https://www.sav.sk/journals/uploads/04240641filozofia.2023.78.4.5.pdf}, author = {Kuchtov{\'a}, Al{\v z}beta} }
