Through an examination of the philosophy of Kant and de Man, as well as writings from Henry James, George Eliot, and Anthony Trollope on the topic of reading, this study argues that there is a necessary ethical moment in the act of reading that is neither cognitive, nor political, nor social, nor interpersonal, but properly and independently ethical.
