  • Emmanuel Levinas, Totality and Infinity: An Essay on Exteriority, translated by Alphonso Lingis. Read the account of the same and the other with the sections on the face, discourse, and justice. The discussions of enjoyment and dwelling supply essential context for the separated self.
  • Compare the book's gendered account of dwelling with its claims about exteriority and ethical address. This is a question within the text, rather than an assumption that its vocabulary can be accepted without examination.
