This article broaches various accounts of love and ethical subjects so as to examine the ethical texture of love and to extend the scope of ethics and ethical subject to include love relationships. The argument divides into five sections: first, I stipulate the definition of "ethical subject in love, and clarify the meaning of "ethics" and "ethical subject" used in the present discussion. Next, in the following three sections, I remap the discursive encounters of Jacques Lacan, Jacques Derrida, and Martin Heidegger with love, examining different types of love, such as eros-love and philia-love, the implied ethics of these loves, and the question of "aimance," to provide evidence for my thesis on relation as love and its ethical subjectivity. In conclusion, I draw upon Virginia Woolf’s novel Mrs Dalloway to illustrate how to apply the proposition of ethical subject in relation as love and thereby enrich one's reading of the literary text. |
