520 | |a This article argues that the philosophical themes of alterity, anarchy, and the absolute found in the writings of Emmanuel Levinas can best help to adumbrate a number of religious, moral, and imaginative distortions that Flannery O'Connor forces upon her implied readers.

Such an interpretation has the advantage of bringing to the fore O'Connor's profound sense of ethical relations, and allows one to see her writings in a new light. | ||
