Late Modernist Style in Samuel Beckett and Emmanuel Levinas (New Interpretations of Beckett in the Twenty-First Century) (New Interpretations of Beckett in 21st C)

by P. Fifield

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