The Ethics and Poetics of Alterity in Asian American Poetry
Xiaojing Zhou
Demonstrates how many Asian American poets transform the conventional ""I"" of lyric poetry - based on the Western concept of the self and the Cartesian ""I"" - to enact an ethical relationship between the ""I"" and its others. Drawing on Emmanuel Levinas's idea of the ethics of alterity, this book offers a reconceptualization of both self and other.
