von Claudia Jahn

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Literatur, Universität Leipzig (Institut für Anglistik), Veranstaltung: Telling Today. The South African Novelist J.M. Coetzee, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Concluding from both Disgrace and The Man of Feeling, morality can either be a principle or a permanently renewed decision. It can be formed independently from the world, in spite of the world, or in concurrence with the world. At any rate, however, it is up to the individual to be made.
