Jacques Derrida has written several texts on issues of migration and hospitality. In his eulogy for Emmanuel Levinas and his subsequent speech at a conference in Levinas’ honour, Derrida tries to relate the question of hospitality to Levinas’ interpretation of the Other. In his lectures at the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes which Derrida held from December 1995 until March 1996, he further elaborates on the question of hospitality. Two of these lectures are published by one of Derrida’s students Anne Dufourmantelle, who complemented it with an epilogue.1
