Kevin Hart, professor of English at the University of Notre Dame, has published a new book on French philosopher and writer Maurice Blanchot.
In 鈥淭he Dark Gaze: Maurice Blanchot and the Sacred,鈥� Hart explores the paradox of Blanchots life as an atheist who had an abiding fascination with mystical experiences and the notion of the sacred. The book reveals Blanchot as a thinker devoted to the possibilities of a spiritual life; an atheist familiar with both the Old and New Testaments; and a philosopher interested in the links between art and religion, and writing and the sacred.
A Notre Dame faculty member since 2002, Hart specializes in poetry, religious literature, and philosophy and literature. He also serves as a faculty fellow in the Nanovic Institute for European 91视频.
