Primo Levi's Ordinary Virtues: From Testimony to Ethics
Gordon, Robert S. C. (, University Lecturerin Italian, Cambridge University, and Fellow of Gonville and Caius College)
Primo Levi was perhaps the most humane and eloquent writer of testimony to emerge from the Nazi Holocaust. But his work also went beyond testimony, tackling many of the founding ethical questions of what it is to be human. This book unveils the extraordinary depth of Levi the ethical writer for the fist time, enhancing his status as one of the key literary figures of the twentieth century.
