Document Summary
Characteristics of the stranger inviting us to think about an actual stranger. Allowing us to think of the stranger : Jews were taxed the same( head tax), while the christians and wealthy people were not. *jews were considered outsiders and were not full fledge members of society . Trading attracted them because it allowed them to trade and move around to different places. The stranger has both an attachment(closeness) & detachment(remoteness) to the society that they are a part of. Whatever we are looking at we want to be invested in ex:rob ford- we are invested in any kind of work in relation to rob ford. we take what we do seriously. The stranger take his or her attachment seriously but also a detachment( remoteness) because if your too heavily invested in something you lose perspective you become blind. Ex: medusa & the shield : her reflection kills her. Ex:parent&child: the child is always good , does nothing wrong.
