Abstract

A space for reflection centered on fertility is initiated in this article by tying in several fields of action where the person is the funda- mental reference. This gives a sense of the relational meaning of fertility from the Book of Genesis. In this way, the human being is shown as having responsibility for the other, introducing the reader to Levinas's ethical approach and, by extension, to reflection on the meaning of fertility as filiation and fraternity, aspects that show the existence of purpose, dignity, value- good and duty in the human condition.
