This book reads theoretical, literary and cinematic works that appear noteworthy for the ethical questions they raise. Via critical analysis of writers and filmmakers whose projects have changed our ways of viewing the modern world - including Hannah Arendt, Franz Kafka, Walter Benjamin, the directors of 'Germany in Autumn', and Heiner Müller - the book furnishes a cultural base for contemporary discussions of totalitarian domination, lying and politics, the relation between law and body, the relation between law and justice, the question of violence, and our ways of conceptualizing "the human".
