Ethics and politics in Tagore, Coetzee and certain scenes of teaching - Gayatri (Ethics and politics in Tagore Chakravarty Spivak - Bog

Spivak's essay on ethics and politics is infused with a concern to bring forward the way the 'literary' works in the production of ethics and politics. The notion of ethics that she uses here is far removed from an inventory of moral principles or moral action. Instead, the ethical, here, is something like a much broader notion of a mentality, or sensibility, which remains part of ones being.
