T. Eagleton, Trouble with strangers

Elizabeth K. Minnich

pp. 137-142

On the most obvious level, Terry Eagleton’s Trouble with Strangers: A Study of Ethics presents us with astute, if perforce fly-over, readings of significant figures in the dominant Western culture’s historical struggles to develop persuasive ethics, here, at first startlingly, brought into intense converse with Lacanian psychoanalytic categories. Eagleton, however, is far more original, and, however coolly witty, far more passionate a moralist, than such a characterization of this work on ethics by a cultural theorist captures.
