Overview
What is the relationship between literary criticism and ethics? The book sets these issues in context by analyzing the historical development of the ethics of criticism and the vigorous contemporary backlash against what is known as "theory." This is the first book to show how Levinas' philosophy is centrally relevant to criticism, literary theory, and to our understanding of literature, and is an energetic contribution to the wide-ranging current debate about ethics in the humanities.Book Details
