New Interpretations of Beckett in the Twenty-First Century: Late Modernist Style in Samuel Beckett and Emmanuel Levinas

 

"Beckett and Levinas are of central importance to critical debates about literary ethics. Rather than suggest the presence of literary and ethical value in the wake of the Second World War, this book argues that both thinkers waged a sustained attack on the principles of literature, weaving narrative and descriptive doubt through phenomenology, prose, and drama.
