Produktbeschreibung
Conversations about ethics and politics are of paramount importance to the present conjuncture. In this work,Ricky Varghese attempts a close reading of certain key literarytexts by Franco-Czech novelist Milan Kundera wherein one might seethe ways in which the novelist has attempted a discussion abouthow the subjects of self and other are founded on thepossibility of/for ethics within an intimate cosmopolitical space. Thework gestures toward a move from and beyond universal conversationsabout cosmopolitanism to a more nuanced reading of thecosmopolitical space as one being founded on ethics and intimateencounters between self and other. Bringing togetherpsychoanalytic theory as it pertains to embodiment, literary criticism in hisreadings of Kundera's texts, and the ethical philosophy ofJacques Derrida and Emmanuel Levinas, Ricky Varghese attempts to think about cosmopolitanism differently, as the locus point whereintimacy, ethics, and justice can be initiated into theconversation between self and other, as subjects that are mutually constituted.
