Beschreibung

"Provocations" explores arguments about literary and spiritual Creations, through definitions of selves and others, and the self with others. Questions of resistance and transcendence, both internal and interpersonal, and to the "facts" of our existence are addressed throughout. Questions about mortality are the convergent points, ultimately, of the 'provocations' in the self-questioning that is the central thrust of the text.
