Experiencing Ethics with Sterne and Musil
Estrada, Jorge
Experiencing ethics not only refers to being confronted with a situation in which one must choose a course of action, it also makes reference to giving a narrative account thereof. Between both there is a chasm, a space of indeterminacy into which R. Musil and L. Sterne delve with aesthetic means. Their poetics move in opposite directions, but by following them to their last critical consequences this study reveals a kindred ethical stance.
