The Ethics Of Reading According To Emmanuel Levinas.(Chiasma 7)

By Roland A. Champagne

Reading a text is an ethical activity for Emmanuel Levinas. His moral philosophy considers written texts to be natural places to discover relations of responsibility in Western philosophical systems which are marked by extreme violence and totalizing hatred. This book uses male feminism as its perspective in presenting the applications of Levinas's vision to texts whose readings have presented moral dilemmas for women readers.
