... The possible symbiosis between philosophy and literature is one of the main issues around which these writings are explored. Can a philosophical text be read as literature and vice versa?

Possible approaches to the problem of Evil also feature in the volume, as part of the symbiosis of philosophy and literature, since needless to say a significant proportion of philosophical writings raise the problem of Evil in various contexts.

The question of the erotic appears within the problem of possible transgressions in the interpretation of both philosophical and literary texts. The author also considers the erotic as a crossing of boundaries and thus the term is reinterpreted in her reading.
