Although the fictional work of writers such as Graham Swift has already been approached from this perspective, none of the individual works or authors under analysis in the twelve essays collected in this volume has been given such a systematic and in-depth scrutiny to date. This study, which is addressed to academics and university students of British literature and culture, focuses on the literary representation of trauma in key works by Martin Amis, J. G. Ballard, Pat Barker, John Boyne, Angela Carter, Eva Figes, Alan Hollinghurst, Delia Jarrett-Macauley, A.L. Kennedy, Ian McEwan, Michael Moorcock, Fay Weldon and Jeanette Winterson, within the context of the “ethical turn” in the related fields of literary theory and moral philosophy that has influenced literary criticism over the last three decades, with a special focus on the ethics of alterity, the ethics of truths, and deconstructive ethics.DQR studies in literature ;48.English fiction21st centuryEnglish fiction20th centuryEthics in literaturePsychic trauma in literatureEnglish fictionEnglish fictionEthics in literature.Psychic trauma in literature.823/.91409Onega Jaén Susana889080Ganteau Jean-Michel1129633MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789429703321Ethics and trauma in contemporary British fiction3807324UNINA
