AGUIRRE, Coral. La dimensión ética de Alfonso Reyes en su relación con Nieves Gonnet. Valenciana [online]. 2015, vol.8, n.16, pp.127-158. ISSN 2007-2538.

The content of Alfonso Reyes and Nieves Gonnet's letters presuppose are more difficult view than the scholarly, intelligent and humorous correspondence characteristic of the Monterrey writer. The Argentinian Nieves proposes a turn from her passionate openly and bluntly love. Following Lévinas, we propose further exploration of that area beyond reason, where a sort of pre-consciousness exists, where affection stand before language. Nieves Gonnet's demands move the rational universe of Reyes, confront him to the Other. Becoming ethically responsible by Nieve's "Here I am", the regiomontano reaches the limits of himself, allowing the revelation of his humanity to flow, sharing it with her.
