Abstract

This paper tries to show how E. Levin as thinks literature as an expression of the Other. After having criticised the nature of modern art in general as purely ontological and neutral, he intends to recover the ethical transcendence of the Other present in the poetic word. To accomplish this task he searches inspiration on the works of Proust, Leiris and, most of all, on Blanchot's notion of an "endless writing”.
