| Summary: | This book is far more than a dictionary, a glossary, or even an ordinary lexicon. It is a collection of fragments of a theoretical discourse on literature that is not steeped in certainties but in possibilities. One will not find “ready-made” answers here, as Sarraute might have said. Or, as Deleuze put it: “Ready-made things—oh my! What a disaster! Well.” More than just concepts and their definitions, this collection brings together values of thought, maieutic gambles, and new ways of raising the question of literature and the problem of its theory. Each entry engages its author—sometimes quite openly—while illustrating a contemporary sensibility and the form of writing associated with it. In this journey from self-theory to life, even a priori well-established concepts such as text, temporality, or genre come to be reexamined—while new terms, such as epimodernism or illiterary, are also proposed. There is no “end” or “exhaustion” here. Here, we practice indiscipline and maladjustment. We employ a prism and an axiological operator. We configure fictional populations. We combine medievalism and posthumanism.
A revised and expanded edition of Fragments of a Theoretical Discourse, first published by Nouvelles éditions Cécile Defaut, this book offers a broad exploration of possible concepts to better understand the phenomenon of literature. |
