This volume brings together Nussbaum's published papers on the relationship between literature and philosophy, especially moral philosophy. The papers, many of them previously inaccessible to non-specialist readers, deal with such fundamental issues as the relationship between style and content in the exploration of ethical issues; the nature of ethical attention and ethical knowledge and their relationship to written forms and styles; and the role of the emotions in deliberation and self-knowledge.

Que l'écrivain se retranche dans son journal ou qu'il y commente ses relations avec autrui, la dialectique du Moi et de l'Autre est au cœur du genre diaristique. Afin de comprendre le paradoxe d'une écriture du Moi qui ne cesse de renvoyer à l'Autre, cet essai analyse la complémentarité du Moi et de l'Autre, ainsi que les différents visages que ces deux notions prennent dans les journaux. Il examine comment les relations entre le Moi et l'Autre sont capables de perturber le genre du journal, au point de le pousser parfois au-delà de ses propres limites. Il montre enfin comment la présence d'un autre lecteur que le diariste remet en question la dialectique du Moi et de l'Autre au sein de ce genre littéraire. « Il n'y a d'art que pour et par autrui », disait Sartre. Quelle est donc la part de l'Autre dans le journal, cet écrit pour soi et par soi ? C'est à cette question que s'efforcent de répondre ces études explorant des journaux de diaristes célèbres (Stendhal, Amiel, les Goncourt, Régnier), des écrits intimes de grands écrivains (Baudelaire, Flaubert, Sand, Daudet, Loti), des journaux de femmes (Pozzi, Hoppenot, Azar du Marest), des journaux inédits (Kalinowska, Grégoire de Blésimare) ou encore des journaux de ghetto (Sierakowiak, Rudashevski).

"Although rule breaking in Harry Potter is sometimes dismissed as a distraction from Harry's fight against Lord Voldemort, Harry Potter and Resistance makes the case that it is central to the battle against evil. Far beyond youthful hijinks or adolescent defiance, Harry's rebellion aims to overcome problems deeper and more widespread than a single malevolent wizard. Harry and his allies engage in a resistance movement against the corruption of the Ministry of Magic as well as against the racist social norms that gave rise to Voldemort in the first place. Dumbledore's Army and the Order of the Phoenix employ methods echoing those utilized by World War Two resistance fighters and by the U.S. Civil Rights movement. The aim of this book is to explore issues that speak to our era of heightened political awareness and resistance to intolerance. Its interdisciplinary approach draws on political science, psychology, philosophy, history, race studies, and women's studies, as well as newer interdisciplinary fields such as resistance studies, disgust studies, and creativity studies"--
