Zusammenfassung:Introduction: decolonizing Levinasian ethic -- Incarnate historiography and the problem of method -- Epistemological fracture -- The ontology of fracture -- Ethics of entanglement -- Decolonizing Levinasian politics.
"What can we learn from reading Levinas alongside postcolonial theories of difference? With that question in view, Drabinski undertakes readings of Gayatri Spivak, Homi Bhabha, Édouard Glissant, and Subcommandante Marcos in order to rethink ideas of difference, language, subjectivity, ethics, and politics. Through these philosophical readings, he gives a new perspective on the work of these important postcolonial theorists and helps make Levinas relevant to other disciplines concerned with postcolonialism and ethics."--Publisher's website
