The Self, the Other and the World
Epistemology and Ethics in Joseph Conrad's Oeuvre
This book examines Joseph Conrad’s narratives and the protagonists’ confrontation with alterity—the self, the other, and the external world. It uniquely links Conradian ethics to the thought of Emmanuel Levinas, arguing that the meeting with the Other determines self-knowledge.
