Introducción a la pragmática Caps 1 y 2 (M.

La pragmática es, por tanto, una disciplina que toma en consideración los factores
extralingüísticos que determinan el uso del lenguaje, precisamente todos aquellos
factores a los que no puede hacer referencia un estudio puramente gramatical:
nociones como las de emisor, destinatario, intención comunicativa, contexto verbal,
situación o conocimiento del mundo van a resultar de capital importancia.

Las formas llamadas tradicionalmente “pronombres personales", “demostrativos”, nos


aparecen ahora como una clase de “individuos lingüísticos”, de formas que remiten
siempre y solamente a “individuos”, trátese de personas, de momentos, de lugares,
por oposición a los términos nominales que remiten siempre y solamente a conceptos.

The views of the ‘natural philosophers’ (as opposed to the Eleatics, who in
principle denied the existence of nature) are of two main kinds, Some hold that
there is one kind of underlying body from which all other things are generated by
condensation and rarefaction. Others hold that there are fundamental qualitative
differences between things but that all things have been sifted out of a single
mass in which all the ‘contrarieties’ were present.

In Phys I, the bare suggestion from the Cat that change is between contraries
becomes part of a general account of change: not just the cases of change in
accidents envisioned in the Cat, but also the coming to be and perishing of an
individual substance, where entities other than individual substances will be the
subjects of contraries.

“privation” (the unmusical man, say, or perhaps just his lack of musicality).

acto de habla? Una diferencia consiste en que de los sonidos o marcas que una
persona hace en la realizaci´on de un acto de habla se dice carac- ter´ısticamente
que tienen significado, y una segunda diferencia relacionada consiste en que
caracter´ısticamente se dice que una persona quiere decir algo mediante esos

The surface syntactical structure of many sentences used to perform declarations


conceals this point from us because in them there is no surface syntactical
distinction between propositional content and illocutionary force. Thus “You’re
fired” and “I resign” do not seem to permit a distinction between illocutionary
force and propositional content,

The original distinction between constatives and performatives was supposed to be a
distinction between utterances which are sayings (constatives: statements,
assertions, etc.) and utterances which are doings (performatives: promises, bets,
warnings, etc.).

Este texto subyacente está presente bajo el modo del paragrama o del hipograma—un

de cabo a rabo y que representa al viajero más que al desierto mismo, un oasis como
monumento de futuro negado o no existente.

La estructura de lo dado (que de ahora en adelante llamaremos matriz), como toda


estructura, es un concepto abstracto que nunca se actualiza per se, es decir, sólo
se hace visible en sus variantes, las agramaticalidades. Mientras mayor sea la
distancia entre la matriz inherente al texto y la mimesis compleja, mayor será la
incompatibilidad entre las agramaticalidades y la mímesis.

En el subgénero de la broma no hay forma en que el lector pueda ir más allá de la


risa una vez que ha reído, de la misma manera que no puede ir más allá de la
solución cuando ya ha resuelto el enigma. Estas formas se autodestruyen
inmediatamente tras su consumo. El soneto, por el contrario, deja libre al lector
para que siga ideando, mientras sus ideaciones no sean completamente incompatibles

Voy a distinguir entre dos operaciones semióticas distintas: la transformación de


los signos miméticos en palabras o frases relevantes para la significancia, y la
transformación de la matriz al texto. Las reglas que gobiernan estas operaciones
pueden trabajar juntas o separadamente en la sobredeterminación de las secuencias

Entendemos que el vocablo transculturación expresa mejor las diferentes fases del
proceso transitivo de una cultura a otra, porque éste no consiste solamente en
adquirir una distinta cultura, que es lo que en rigor indica la voz angloamericana
acculturation, sino que el proceso implica también necesariamente la pérdida o
desarraigo de una cultura precedente, lo que pudiera decirse una parcial
desculturación, y, además, significa la consiguiente creación de nuevos fenómenos
culturales que pudieran denominarse de neoculturación.

The hypothesis I wish to defend is simply this: In indirect speech acts the speaker
communicates to the hearer more than he actually says by way of relying on their
mutually shared background information, both linguistic and nonlinguistic, together
with the general powers of rationality and inference on the part of the hearer.

In the field of indirect illocutionary acts, the area of directives is the most
useful to study because ordinary conversational requirements of politeness normally
make it awkward to issue flat imperative sentences (e.g., Leave the room) or
explicit performatives (e.g., I order you to leave the room), and we therefore seek
to find indirect means to our illocutionary ends (e.g., I wonder if you would mind
leaving the room). In directives, politeness is the chief motivation for
indirectness.

Fact 1: The sentences in question do not have an imperative force as part of their
meaning. This point is sometimes denied by philosophers and linguists, but very
powerful evidence for it is provided by the fact that it is possible without
inconsistency to connect the literal utterance of one of these forms with the
denial of any imperative intent,

It is important to note that the intonation of these sentences when they are
uttered as indirect requests often differs from their intonation when uttered with
only their literal illocutionary force, and often the intonation pattern will be
that characteristic of literal directives.

expression, or sentence, we are talking about what a speaker might utter it to
mean, in a way that departs from what the word, expression, or sentence actually

In order to understand the metaphorical utterance, the hearer requires something


more than his knowledge of the language, his awareness of the conditions of the
utterance, and background assumptions that he shares with the speaker. He must have
some other principles, or some other factual information, or some combination of
principles and information that enables him to figure out that when the speaker
says, “S is P”, he means “S is R”. What is this extra element?

It is essential to see this point, because the main problem of metaphor is to


explain how speaker meaning and sentence meaning are different and how they are,
nevertheless, related. Such an explanation is impossible if we suppose that
sentence or word meaning has changed in the metaphorical utterance.

Thus “Sally is a block of ice” means “Sally is like a block of ice”, which means
“She shares certain traits with a block of ice, in particular she is very cold”.
But since “cold” in “Sally is very cold” is also metaphorical, there must be an
underlying similarity in which Sally’s emotional state is like coldness, and when
we finally specify these respects, the metaphor will be completely analyzed.

I think the only answer to the question, “What is the relation between cold things
and unemotional people that would justify the use of ‘cold’ as a metaphor for lack
of emotion?” is simply that as a matter of perceptions, sensibilities, and
linguistic practices, people find the notion of coldness associated in their minds
with lack of emotion. The notion of being cold just is associated with being
unemotional.

dead metaphor. Some dictionaries (e.g. the OED) list lack of emotion as one of the
meanings of “cold”.

gigantic big bears, all dancing outside from dark to nearly dawn.

the view that one of the more significant 'ideological effects’ which linguists

subjects. Third, the claim that ‘ideolo gical state apparatuses’ (institutions such

Discourse contributes to the constitution of all those dimensions of social


structure which directly or indirectly shape and constrain it: its own r-.orms and
conventions, as well as the relations, identities and institutions which lie behind
them. Dis course is a practice not just of representing the world, but of

Tragedia, a la que está próximo con frecuencia. Pero fue contagiado, sobre todo,

género, la Historia universal. Heródoto, como los sofistas, recorrió el mundo
griego y persa (gracias a la distensión de la paz de Calías) y no era un
proateniense fanático. Conocía las excelencias de unos pueblos y otros, era
relativista en un cierto sentido. Admiraba a Jos espartanos y a los atenienses,

Su propia vida manifiesta hasta qué punto Sócrates consideraba esencial un nuevo

moralísmo puro: el cuidado del alma, el olvido de todo lo material, el cumplimiento
del deber en cualquier circunstancia, a despecho de cualquier choque. Este

Pero no se trata tan sólo de teoría. Platón no renunció a la acción: sus viajes a
Sicilia, pieza fundamental de su biografía humana y filosófica, trataron de llevar
a la práctica aquellas conocidas palabras de la República (473 e), que ya hemos
citado: «A no ser que los filósofos reinen en las ciudades o que cuantos ahora se
llaman reyes y dinastas practiquen noble y adecuadamente la filosofía, no hay
tregua, querido Glaucón, para los males de las ciudades y creo que tampoco para los

El problema para Sócrates y Platón era la convicción de que la hybris% el exceso


que deriva del deseo de autoafirmación y acción propio de cada hombre, lleva al
choque, al sufrimiento, a la catástrofe: había que buscar un remedio. Pero los
trágicos sabían, y Tucídides lo dice claramente, que ese deseo y esa acción son
connaturales con el hombre, no pueden ni deben ser desarraigados. ¿Cómo
desenganchar a los hombres de la pendiente trágica?

E historiadores como Heródoto y Tucídides combinan el discursos político y

exhortaciones diversas, igual que la epopeya, la lírica y el teatro. A veces no hay
grandes diferencias formales entre unos y otros tipos de discurso.

de la vida pública de Atenas; de sus exigencias y de los modos de vida y

Estas otras filosofías proclamaban el deber político del servicio a la comunidad.


Estaban fuera de la ciudad, el reino o el imperio, lo aceptaban simplemente como
una cosa dada (muy inferior, desde luego, a la comunidad humana) y trataban de
ayudar, introduciendo valores morales16. Cierto que no aspiraban al poder y que
distinguían entre la ley eterna y la ley política, pero sentían que existían kathé-

Interactivity has at least two aspects: one is broadly interpersonal, for instance,
in that the user can 'write back’ to tile producer of a text with no difficulty - a
potential achievable only with very great cllort or not at all with the older
media, and it permits the user to enter into an entirely new relation with all
other texts - the notion of hypcrtcxtuality.

Lo que ha llegado a tomar el lugar de la concepción medieval de la simultaneidad a


lo largo del tiempo es una idea del “tiempo homogéneo vacio” donde la simultaneidad
es transversa, de tiempo cruzado, no marcada pro la prefiguración y la realización,
sino por la coincidencia temporal, y medida por el reloj y el calendario.

Es así como, en un espíritu que recuperará posteriormente Aristóteles, se sostiene


que la retórica y la sofística suplantan a la legislación y la justicia en el

considerar la política como tékhne (Polít. 279 b; 300 c), y al político, por su

Cuando se analiza una oración semejante aislada, se la suele interpretar como un


enunciado concluso referido a cierta situación muy simplificada: el sol
efectivamente salió y el hablante atestigua: “ya salió el sol”; al hablante le
consta que la hierba es verde, por eso declara: “la hierba es verde”. Esa clase de
comunicados sin sentido a menudo se examinan directamente como ejemplos clásicos de
oración. En la realidad, cualquier comunicado semejante siempre va dirigido a
alguien, está provocado por algo, tiene alguna finalidad, es decir, viene a ser un
eslabón real en la cadena de la comunicación discursiva dentro de alguna esfera
determinada de la realidad cotidiana del hombre.

As a working definition we characterised genres as staged, goal oriented social


processes. Staged, because it usually takes us more than one step to reach our
goals; goal oriented because we feel frustrated if, we don’t accomplish the final
steps (as with the aborted narrative above); social because writers shape their
texts for readers of particular kinds.

In functional linguistics terms what this means is that genres are defined as a

meaning enact the social practices of a given culture. This means we have to think
about more than individual genres; we need to consider how they relate to one
another.

For solidarity Poynton suggests the realisation principles of‘proliferation* and


‘contraction. Proliferation refers to the idea that the closer you are to someone
the more meanings you have available to exchange. One way of thinking about this is
to imagine the process of getting to know someone and what you can talk about when
you don’t know them (very few things) and what you can talk about when you know
them very well (almost anything). Contraction refers to the amount of work it takes
to exchange meanings, and the idea that the better you know someone the less
explicitness it takes. Poyntottóxemplifies this in part through naming, pointing
out that knowing someone very well involves short names, whereas knowing them less
well favours longer ones (e.g. Mike vs Professor Michael Alexander Kirkwood
Halliday, FAHA).

are heavily mediating what is going on (e,g. image, music, spatial design, action).
In other contexts language may be by and large what is going on, sometimes to the

In post-colonial societies five general factors are generally assumed to position


us in relation to power and control: generation, gender, ethnicity, capacity and
class. We use generation to refer to inequalities associated with maturation;
gender covers sex and sexuality based difference; ethnicity is concerned with
racial, religious and other cultural’ divisions; capacity refers to abilities and
disabilities of various kinds; class is based on the distribution of material
resources and is arguably the most fundamental dimension since it is the division
on which our post-colonial economic order ultimately depends. Our positioning
begins at birth in the home, and all five factors condition access to the various
hierarchies we encounter beyond domestic life — in education, religion, recreation
and the workplace.

ethnicity» capacity and class, to differentially condition our access to power and

• social rather than cognitive (or socio-cognitive as in say Berkenkotter


& Huckin 1995)* • social semiotk rather than ethnographic, with tenor,
field and mode explored as patterns of meaning configured together as the social
practices we call genres "" ' • integrated within a functional theory of
language rather than interdisciplinary; note however that our theory is multi-
perspectival (i.e. including several complementary ways of looking at text, e.g.
metafunction, strata) • fractal rather than eclectic, with basic concepts
such as metafunction redeployed across strata, and across modalities of
communication (e.g, image, sound, action and spatial design) •
interventionist rather than critical9 since following Halliday we see linguistics
as an ideologically committed form of social action.

Such a paradigmatic perspective is often used in linguistics, but SFL privileges


this perspective on language as sets of resources for making meaning, rather than

• La gramática funcional se centra en el uso de la lengua. La principal


preocupación son las funciones de las estructuras gramaticales y sus significados
en sus contextos de uso. • La gramática equivale a la léxico-gramática. • Es
descuptiva, antes que prescríptiva, en el análisis de ocurrencias reales de la
lengua oral y escrita y en su contexto de uso. • Pretende mostrar cómo se
produce el significado mediante la comprensión y la interpretación de los textos.
Los gramáticos se basan en fragmentos lingüísticos auténticos, tomados de

semántica. De manera similar, la organización de los morfemas en palabras, grupos y
cláusulas se realiza por medios fónicos (o gráficos); esto es, la gramática es
realizada en el nivel interior por la fonología (el sistema de sonidos y la
entonación) o por la ortografía (el sistema de escritura y signos d^ puntuación).

El sistema de la voz funciona de esta manera. • Una cláusula sin "agencia" (sin
causa externa) no está ni en voz activa ni pasiva, sino en voz media. • Una
cláusula con "agencia" (con causa externa) está en voz electiva (no media). • La
cláusula electiva puede ser operativa o receptiva En una cláusula operativa el
sujeto es el agente y el proceso es realizado por un verbo activo. En una cláusula
receptiva el sujeto es el medio y el proceso es realizado por una frase verbal
pasiva.

Un primer acercamiento al tema de las perspectivas precognitivas desde las cuales


se puede hablar o teorizar acerca del conocimiento (o sea, desde las cuales se
puede “hacer epistemología”), tiene su raíz en la conocida tesis de los tres mundos
de Popper (1982), que a su vez puede ponerse en conexión con la anterior tesis del
“triángulo de Odgens” (puede verse está conexión en Padrón 2000).

Odgens había explicado el lenguaje como una estructura relacional entre tres
elementos: el “Referente” (las cosas, el mundo perceptible), el “Pensamiento” (la
idea o representación mental de esas cosas) y el “Símbolo” (las palabras que
expresan ese pensamiento). El primer elemento remite al plano del Objeto, el
segundo al plano del Sujeto y el tercero al plano de las relaciones entre Sujetos.

esta epistemología asume que la lógica de los procesos científicos inobservables


tiene una base cognitiva, lo que también podría significar que no son las
dimensiones sociales lo que centra el interés de la epistemología cognitiva, entre
otras razones porque buena parte de los racionalistas tiene una visión internalista
de los procesos mentales, incluyendo los de la ciencia.

We are to love the persons so far, and only insofar, as they are good and
beautiful. Now since all too few human beings are masterworks of excellence, and
not even the best of those we have the chance to love are wholly free of streaks of
the ugly, the mean, the commonplace, the ridiculous, if our love for them is to be
only for their virtue and beauty, the individual, in the uniqueness and integrity
of his or her individuality, will never be the object of our love. This seems to me
the cardinal flaw in Plato’s theory. It does not provide for love of whole persons,
but only for love of that abstract version of persons which consists of the complex
of their best qualities. This is the reason why personal affection ranks so low in
Plato’s scala amoris. . . . The high climactic moment of fulfillment—the peak
achievement for which all lesser loves are to be “used as steps”—is the one
farthest removed from affection for concrete human

In any case, we are surely meant to tie the dialogue very closely to the death, to
think of Alcibiades as dead, or dying, even while he speaks, and to see the

fears that led to the killing.

This incident was taken to be the most egregious case of Alcibiades’ lack of
control over his actions, the recklessness and emotional disorder that were seen
constantly to undercut his genius. The dialogue will show us this recklessness, and

He wants to show us certain connections between belief and behavior, and also how
concrete experiences of a certain sort could tell for or against holding a theory.
To this end either historical or mythical-fictional characters would, of course, be
serviceable. But the historical concreteness of the Symposium permits an economy of
exposition and imagery that would have been difficult to achieve using invented

Ahora bien, desde las primeras paginas de Las estructuras, Levi-Strauss, que ha
empezado prestando credito a esos conceptos, se encuentra con lo que llama un
escandalo, es decir, algo que no tolera ya la oposici6n naturale za-cultura tal
como ha sido recibida, y que parece requerir a la vez los predicados de la
naturaleza y los de la cultura. Este escandalo es la prohibici6n del incesto.

Evidentemente s6lo hay esc{mdalo en el interior de un siste ma de conceptos que
preste cn!dito a la diferencia entre natu raleza y cultura. Al iniciar su obra con
el factum de la prohibi ci6n del incesto, Levi-Strauss se instala, pues, en el
punta en que esa diferencia, que se ha dado siempre por obvia, se encuen tra
borrada o puesta en cuesti6n. Pues desde el momenta en que la prohibici6n del
incesto no se deja ya pensar dentro de la oposici6n naturaleza!cultura, ya no se
puede decir que sea un hecho escandaloso, un nucleo de opacidad en el interior de
una red de significaciones transparentes; no es un esc{mdalo con que uno se
encuentre, o en el que se caiga dentro del campo de los conceptos tradicionales; es
lo que escapa a esos conceptos y ciertamente los precede y probablemente como su
condici6n de posibilidad.

consistiria, para evitar Io que pudiera tener de esterilizante el primer gesto,

en el trabajo de Levi-Strauss, hay que reconocer que el respeto de la


estructuralidad, de la originalidad interna de la estructura, obliga a neutralizar
el tiempo y la historia. Por ejemplo, la aparicion de una nueva estructura, de un
sistema original, se produce siempre -y es esa la condici6n misma de su especifi
cidad estructural- por medio de una ruptura con su pasado, su origen y su causa.

Tension del juego con la historia, tension tambien del j ego con la presencia. El
juego es el rompimiento de la presencia. La presencia de un elemento es siempre una
referenda significan te y sustitutiva inscrita en un sistema de diferencias y el
movi miento de una cadena. El juego es siempre juego de ausencia y de presencia,
pero si se lo quiere pensar radicalmente, hay que pensarlo antes de la alternativa
de la presencia y de la ausen cia; hay que pensar el ser como presencia o ausencia
a partir de la posibilidad del juego, y no a la inversa.

efecto, haciendo que el oyente reconozca su intenci´on de producir ese efecto, y
por lo tanto, si est´a usando las palabras literalmente, intenta que este

Si los hombres escriben es porque tienen algo que comunicar, porque lo que tienen
que comunicar, es su «pensamiento», sus «ideas», sus representaciones. El
pensamiento representativo precede y rige la comunicación que transporta la «idea»,
el contenido significado, porque los hombres se encuentran ya en situación de
comunicar y de comunicarse su pensamiento cuando inventan, de manera continua, este
medio de comunicación que es la escritura.

El paso de Austin es bastante notable y típico de esta tradición filosófica con la


cual él quería tener tan pocas ligaduras. Consiste en reconocer que la posibilidad
de lo negativo (aquí, las infelicities) es una posibilidad ciertamente estructural,
que el fracaso es un riesgo esencial de las operaciones consideradas; luego, en un
gesto casi inmediatamente simultáneo, en el nombre de una especie de regulación
ideal, en excluir este riesgo como riesgo accidental, exterior, y no decir nada

El segundo acto de esta exclusión concierne más directamente a nuestro propósito.
Se trata justamente de la posibilidad para toda enunciación performativa (y a

eventualidad (y la teoría general que daría cuenta de ella) con una especie de
empeño lateral, lateralizante, pero por ello tanto más significativo. Insiste sobre
el hecho de que esta posibilidad sigue siendo anormal, parasitaria, que constituye
una especie de extenuación, incluso de agonía del lenguaje que es preciso mantener

Further, since the Good is the highest of the ideas for Plato, it is no accident
that beauty becomes one of the most important ideas, since, combined with eros, it
becomes the impetus for getting to that highest idea. And the beauty that Plato has
in mind is the beauty of the male youth, a beauty he describes as of divine shape
or form (fheoeides, Phaedrus 251a).

The teacher does not lose the knowledge he or she possesses in passing it on to the
pupil. On the contrary, it is reinforced, and leads to new and deeper insights. In
Plato “birth in beauty” becomes synonymous with growth in wisdom and virtue, not
simply the begetting of the beautiful and the good in the beloved, but also in the
begetter.

In the “growing of wings” there may be kisses and embraces in the common search for
truth, but there is no encouragement to sexual intercourse. On the contrary, Plato
speaks consistently against such homosexual intercourse, as is indicated in the
Republic (403b), as also in the last of his dialogues, the Laws (839a, 84 le).
Indeed, Vlastos is undoubtedly correct in noting that the phrase in the Phaedrus
(250e), “going down on all fours [like a four-footed beast] as if to beget
offspring in the flesh,” is not a contemptuous reference to heterosexual
intercourse; rather, it is a condemnation of homosexual anal intercourse.4

It is clear that the sexual metaphor in Plato is that of homosexual, rather than
heterosexual, love. With women there can be no true communion, no harmonía, he
says. Whereas between members of the same sex there can be a communion that lasts
all through life (Laws VIII, 837b). It is true that in the Laws (VIII, 839b) Plato
indicates the possibility that there may exist friendship (philia) between men and
their wives. The suggestion is not further pursued, however. Women, it may be
noted, were never associated with the Academy. Heterosexual love is a rejected
metaphor. There is no congeniality here.

If we are to appreciate the sexual metaphor in Aristotle’s reconstruction of how we


come to know, as outlined in the De Anima, it is necessary to take account of his
view that activity is associated with the male, as passivity and receptivity is
associated with the female. According to Aristotle’s biology, it is the male that
provides the form for the offspring (the soul), the female providing the matter or
material (note the word mater in the word material).

and stands wherever he happens to be.” These details have usually been read as

The form of the beautiful appeared to the mind’s eye alone, looking “not like some
face or hands or anything else that partakes in body” (211a); it was “unalloyed,
pure, unmixed, not stuffed full of human flesh and colors and lots of other mortal
rubbish” (21 le).

Asked to speak about Love, Alcibiades has chosen to speak of a particular love; no
definitions or explanations of the nature of anything, but just a story of a
particular, contingent passion for a particular contingent individual. Asked to
make a speech, he gives us the story of his own life: the understanding of eros he
has achieved through his own intimate experience.

But his opening remarks indicate that Alcibiades is not simply ignorant of these
philosophical objections. He anticipates criticism. He anticipates, in fact, that
the philosopher will not allow his truths, or not allow their claim to be the
truth. And he asserts, in the face of this danger, that, nonetheless, what he will
tell will be truth—that the truth can and will be told in just this way, in a story
about individuals, and through images.

If this is, indeed, Alcibiades’ view, it is not surprising that he is on the


defensive in this company. If the symposiasts have anything in common, it is that
they seem to believe that eros should be praised in the abstract. Particular
stories enter briefly as examples of general principles, but none is described
fully or concretely, in a way that would appeal to the sensuous imagination,

Nobody loves a half or a whole, unless that half or whole is beautiful and good.
Socrates claims to have episteme of erotic matters (177d); and episteme, unlike
Alcibiades’ pathonta gnonai, is deductive, scientific, concerned with universals.

The correct Socratic lover comes to see each particular only as an instance of

Two things in the speech, above all, strike us as strange. Using them as clues we
may perhaps be able to understand more fully its teaching and its relationship to
Socratic teaching. The first is its confusion about sexual roles. Alcibiades begins
as the beautiful eromenos, but seems to end as the active erastes, while Socrates,
apparently the eras tés, becomes the eromenos (222b). The second is Alcibiades’ odd
habit of incarnation— the way he speaks of his soul, his reason, his feelings and
desires, as pieces of flesh that can experience the bites, burns, and tears that
are the usual lot of flesh.

The presence of Socrates makes him feel, first of all, a terrifying and painful
awareness of being perceived. He wants, with part of himself, to “hold out” (216a),
to remain an eromenos. His impulse, in service of this end, is to run away, hide,
stop up his ears—orifices that can be entered, willy-nilly, by penetrating words
(216ab).

More confusing still, he feels, at the same time, a deep desire to know Socrates—a
desire as conventionally inappropriate as his desire to be known. His speech makes
repeated and central use of the image of opening up the other: an image which is
essentially sexual, and inseparable from his sexual aims and imaginings, but which
is also epistemic, intended to convey to us his desire “to hear everything that he
knew” (217a) and to know everything that he was.

Alcibiades sees his sexual aim, the fullest fulfillment of which demands both

aim to achieve a more complete understanding of this particular rich portion of the

It is easy enough to see structural parallels between sexual desire and the desire
for wisdom. Both are directed towards objects in the world, and aim at somehow
grasping or possessing these objects. The fulfilled grasp of the object brings, in
both cases, satiety and the temporary cessation of desire: no sphere seduces, “no
god does philosophy” (204a).

But Alcibiades appears to want to claim something more controversial and anti-
Socratic than this parallelism. With his claims that a story tells the truth and
that his goal is to open up and to know, he asserts, I believe, that the lover’s
knowledge of the particular other, gained through an intimacy both bodily and
intellectual, is itself a unique and uniquely valuable kind of practical
understanding, and one that we risk losing if we take the first step up the
Socratic ladder.

Second, both kinds of understanding, not just the Socratic kind, are concerned with
truths. Alcibiades is claiming not just an ineffable familiarity with Socrates, but
the ability to tell the truth about Socrates. He wants to claim that through a
lover’s intimacy he can produce accounts (stories) that are more deeply and
precisely true—that capture more of what is characteristic and practically relevant
about Socrates, that explain more about what Socrates does and why—than any account
that could be produced by a form-lover who denied himself the cognitive resources
of the senses and emotions.

But there is no denying, either, that with the failure of sexual intimacy a certain
part of practical understanding is lost to Alcibiades. There is a part of Socrates
that remains dark and mysterious to him, a depth of intuitive responsiveness to
this particular man, an aptness of speech, movement, and gesture, that he can never
develop, a kind of “dialectic” that is missing.38

Alcibiades, without a philosophical view of mind, gives an extraordinary defense of

Our reading has now put us in a position to move from the interpretation of the
images used by Alcibiades to the interpretation of the image that Alcibiades is, as
he presents himself before us. He makes his appearance “crowned with a thick crown
of ivy and violets” (212el-2), making dress itself an image that tells the truth.40
The crown of violets is, first of all, a sign of Aphrodite (cf. H. Horn. 5.18,

But the violet crown stands for something else as well: for the city of Athens
herself. In a fragment from Pindar (only one of the poems that use this apparently
well-known epithet) she is addressed: O glistening and violet-crowned and famous in
song, Bulwark of Hellas, glorious Athens, Fortunate city. The crown of violets is
the delicate, growing sign of the fortunate flourishing of this strange and fragile
democracy, now, in the time of Alcibiades, in its greatest danger. By so crowning
himself, Alcibiades indicates that his own attentiveness to the particular and the
contingent, to persons rather than repeatable properties, intuitions rather than
rules, is the fruit of this city’s education.

Alcibiades is appealing, gripping, and, ultimately, tragic in part because he is


also the comic poet of his own disaster. If he had told a melodramatic tale of
anguish and loss, stripped of the wit, the self-awareness, and the laughter that
characterize his actual speech, his story would be less tragic, because we would
have less reason to care about him. (A reflection prompted, in part, by the strange
experience of Woody Allen’s Interiors, whose suffering characters, stripped of all
laughter, strike us as so self-absorbed and impenetrable that we can hardly think
of them as human, much less be moved.)

All this shows us the case for Alcibiades. But the speech is also, implicitly,
Plato’s indictment. We have seen him invent a priestess whose job it is to save men
from plagues, and we have suggested that personal eros, and the lover’s knowledge,
are this plague. We want now to discover the origins of this condemnation. What
makes eros intolerable? What gives rise to this overwhelming need to get above it
and away from it?

Is he, then, in love, truly happy or good? The dialogue makes us wonder. No present
fortune is guarantee of its own stability (cf. 200b-e). Therefore, as the dialogue
indicates, fears, jealousies, and the threat of loss may be an intimate part of

There is a strong possibility that Alcibiades wants Socrates to be a statue—a thing


that can be held, carried, or, when necessary, smashed. There is a strong
possibility that this sort of intense being-in-love cannot tolerate, and wishes to
kill, autonomous movement. The sentimentalized lover of Greek erotic painting
greets the boy by affectionately touching him on face and genitals, indicating in
this tender gesture respect and awe for his whole person.43

We tried to think of a life in which eros would play its part along with other
component goods—intellectual, political, social. But the nature of personal erotic
passion may be such as to be always unstable, always threatening, when given a

As we watch the trial of Socrates for the contemptuous overweening (huperephanias,


219c5) of reason, which is at the same time the trial of Alcibiades for the
contemptuous overweening of the body, we see what neither of them can fully see—the
overweening of both. And we see that it is ours, part of the way we must go if we
are to follow either one or the other. But so much light can turn to stone. You
have to refuse to see something, apparently, if you are going to act. I can choose
to follow Socrates, ascending to the vision of the beautiful. But I cannot take the
first step on that ladder as long as I see Alcibiades.

I can follow Socrates only if, like Socrates, I am persuaded of the truth of
Diotima’s account; and Alcibiades robs me of this conviction. He makes me feel that
in embarking on the ascent I am sacrificing a beauty; so I can no longer view the
ascent as embracing the whole of beauty. The minute I think “sacrifice” and
“denial,” the ascent is no longer what it seemed, nor am I, in it, self-sufficient.

I can, on the other hand, follow Alcibiades, making my soul a body. I can live in
eros, devoted to its violence and its sudden light. But once I have listened to
Diotima, I see the loss of light that this course, too, entails—the loss of
rational planning, the loss, we might say, of the chance to make a world. And then,
if I am a rational being, with a rational being’s deep need for order and for
understanding, I feel that I must be false to eros, for the world’s sake.44

The ambitions of the soul conceal the body of Socrates from his awareness. Just as

Meanwhile, the comic and tragic poets sleep together, tucked in by the cool hand of
philosophy (223d). Those two—philosophy and literature—cannot live together or know
each other’s truths, that’s for sure. Not unless literature gives up its attachment
to the contingent and the vulnerable, and makes itself an instrument of Diotima’s
persuasion. But that would be to leave its own truths behind.

La “ciudad” instaurada por el discurso utópico y urbanístico (Choay, 1973) está


definida por la posibilidad de una triple operación, descrita en seguida: 1.- La
producción de un espacio propio: la organización racional debe por tanto rechazar
todas las contaminaciones físicas, mentales o políticas que pudieran comprometerla;
2.- La sustitución de las resistencias inasequibles y pertinaces de las
tradiciones, con un no tiempo, o sistema sincrónico: estrategias científicas
unívocas, que son posibles mediante la descarga de todos los datos, deben
reemplazar las tácticas de los usuarios que se las ingenian con las “ocasiones” y
que, por estos acontecimientos-trampa, lapsus de la visibilidad, reintroducen en
todas partes las opacidades de la historia; 3.- En fin, la creación de un sujeto
universal y anónimo que es la ciudad misma: como en su modelo político -el Estado
de Hobbes- es posible atribuirle poco a poco todas las funciones y predicados,
hasta ahí diseminados y asignados entre múltiples sujetos reales, grupos,
asociaciones, individuos. “La ciudad”, como nombre propio, ofrece de este modo la

With the fall of monarchy and the rise of industrial fortunes in the late
nineteenth century, luxury became the domain of old-moneyed European aristocrats
and elite American families—such as the Vanderbilts, the Astors, and the Whitneys—
who moved in closed social circles. Luxury wasn’t simply a product. It denoted a
history of tradition, superior quality, and often a pampered buying experience.
Luxury was a natural and expected element of upper-class life, like belonging to
the right clubs or having the right surname.

contemporary society. “I’m no philosopher,” he said, “but it seems to me that women
—and men too—instinctively yearn to exhibit themselves. In this machine age, which
esteems convention and uniformity, fashion is the ultimate refuge of the human, the
personal and the inimitable. Even the most outrageous innovations should be
welcomed, if only because they shield us against the shabby and the humdrum. Of
course fashion is a transient, egotistical indulgence, yet in an era as somber as
ours, luxury must be defended centimeter by centimeter.”

inherited a tradition of craftsmanship rooted in the anonymous artisans who…
expressed their genius in chiseled stone gargoyles and cherubs,” he said. “Their

the feeling (nothing erotic about it) that each one had a zob (Arab argot for
penis) and that all these zobs, as I passed them, were lined up like a mass-
produced object rhythmically stamped out by a mold. In this stream, but dressed in
the same rough cloth, in the same colors, the same rags, from time to time, a zob

Le Palace is well proportioned. This means that you are not afraid here (you would
not mind sleeping in it): too small, a theater is stifling; too big, chilling. Here
you can circulate—up, down, changing places according to your whim—a freedom always
frustrated in other theaters, where everyone is assigned a seat, the one
corresponding to his money.

dancing silhouettes, divining around me in the shadow of levels and of open loges
an entire ebullition of young bodies busy in their unsuspected circuits, I seemed

evening at the Opéra, where the house and the boxes form, under the young
Narrator’s impassioned eye, an aquatic milieu, gently illuminated by aigrettes, by
glances, by jewels, by faces, by gestures suggestive of those made by undersea
deities, amid which sat enthroned the duchess of Guermantes.

lunch began, his timidity or his remoteness intimidated me; no euphoria of relation
—far from it. I asked him to come and sit beside me on the bed during my nap; he
came willingly enough, sat on the edge of the bed, looked at an art book; his body

It argues that two different aspects of appraisal need to be considered: the kinds
of attitudinal lexis (in terms of evaluative standards which are inscribed in this
lexis) and the kinds of attitudinal targets or types of attitudinal assessment, and

Additionally I would argue that emotion (affect) can be sub-divided into overt
affect and covert affect. Resources of overt affect directly name an emotional
response of Emoters (fear, love, hate), whereas resources of covert affect only
indirectly denote such an emotional response. This distinction roughly corresponds
to what Hunston calls ‘reflective’ vs. ‘constitutive’ affect:

The question of whether patterns can be used to diagnose appraisal subcategories


thus relates to two aspects:3 - Do the specific sub-types of lexis
(appreciating, judging, affective) occur only in certain distinct patterns?
- Are specific patterns used to evaluate a) things/situations, or b)
persons/their behaviour; or c) to attribute emotional responses to Emoters?

opinion (evaluative category) and emotion (evaluating response or overt affect):

As becomes apparent, example 3 (with covert affect lexis) shares similarities both
with opinion/evaluative categories (the noun group at the beginning of the pattern
realizes the Evaluated Thing rather than the Evaluator) and emotion/ evaluating
responses (the adjective indicates an emotional response rather than an evaluative
quality, and an Evaluator is present).

These kinds of assessment also differ in subjectivity and personalization.


Assessments of ‘emotion’ indicate personal responses which are very much
individualized. In contrast, assessments of ‘opinion’ provide a mode of expression
by which this emotional basis can be backgrounded, obscured or even denied. They
shift the focus from the human subject responding emotionally to the entity being
evaluated. Such evaluations are, accordingly, less explicitly personalizing than
‘emotions’ (White 2004c: 233; see also Fiehler 1990: 49).

A number of evaluative standards are not easily classified in my view as deriving


from aesthetic or ethical standards or even necessarily as good-bad (see also
Bednarek 2006: 32-33, 41-43). These are: important-unimportant
evaluation in terms of significance genuine-fake
evaluation in terms of genuineness and truth expected-unexpected
evaluation in terms of expectedness possible-not possible evaluation
in terms of possibility necessary-not necessary evaluation in terms of
necessity Such evaluations have a number of discourse functions that need to be
researched in more detail, e.g. importance, genuineness and expectedness can
function as intensifiers, but also to invoke positive/negative evaluation (Bednarek
2006).

One argument against my claim above that it is often difficult to distinguish


appreciation from judgement lexis might be that it is simply necessary to look at
the context, i.e. the appraised entity (or attitudinal target) in order to decide
whether appreciation or judgement is concerned. Thus: an important man (judgement:
capacity) an important issue (appreciation: valuation) But it must be clear that
this is no longer purely a classification of appraisal dependent on attitudinal
lexis, but rather a classification of appraisal dependent on the attitudinal
target.

That is, what we need for appraisal analysis is a classification of attitudinal


lexis in terms of evaluative standards which are inscribed in this lexis, which
constitutes our first starting point for the analysis of attitude. But we also need
a classification of attitudinal targets or types of attitudinal assessment as the
second starting point for the analysis of attitude.

Then we can talk about ‘judging’ lexis used to appreciate things, ‘importance’

With (the affective noun) pity the fact that it occurs in a pattern that is
normally associated with opinion rather than emotion (nouns denoting emotion are
usually non-count) has resulted in the fact that its meaning has changed.
Naturally, such examples are not classified as covert affect, because there is no
implication of the emotion of pity. In contrast, It is a surprise that still does
convey emotion (covert affect).

However, in our research we have also needed to recognize more overt and covert
contextual triggers that assume cultural knowledge on the part of the reader. These
may be ideational meanings that refer to relevant texts and defining events in
history, like the holocaust, the stolen generations and 9/11 that afford
evaluations. Such allusions resonate with the reader and act as ‘bonding icons, to
borrow Stenglin’s term (2008). More covertly, these triggers include statements
that connote cultural values that the writer and reader are assumed to share.

Our response to the question is to put indeterminacy at the centre of the task and
to make this a feature of the account rather than something to be pushed to the
margins (as an embarrassment in the analysis). This means making space for the
dance of implicit and explicit evaluation, for the different co-textual and
contextual frames within which evaluation occurs and for the situation- and

The speakers attitudes and assessments, his judgements of validity and probability;
his choice of speech function, the mode of exchange in dialogue - such things are
not discrete elements that belong at some particular juncture but semantic features
that inform continuous stretches of discourse. It is natural that they should be
realized not segmentally but prosodically, by structures (if that term is still
appropriate) that are not particulate but held- like. The linguist’s tree is an
inappropriate construct for representing structures of this
kind.

The cumulative effect of this prosody is to underscore the depth of Nellie’s


yearning for her daughter. With each repetition of her wishes, at the ages of 17,
20, 30 and now at the end of her life, the reader is invited to judge Nellie’s love
for her daughter (affect: Happiness) and her strength of character, determination
and perseverance (judgement: Tenacity). In other words, ‘desire’ ‘infiltrates’ the
borders of another set of feelings as well as those around the region of judgement.

Similarly, if context is all, when it comes to appraisal, we need to establish


intermediate systems that have value in particular situation types. As all
professionals know, words and their evaluations have a particular valeur in one
context that cannot be assumed in another. To hate one’s mother in a religious
context such as the confessional is a negative attitude (a sin) whilst in the
therapist’s chair it could be taken as a sign of progress (honest confrontation
with one’s emotional reality). Crying can be a sign of progress in one context, of
family intimacy or of suffering in another. Laughter can be a sign of communing or
condemning affiliation (Knight 2010). It all depends on one’s context and on the
orientation of those who share it.

We can respond to the particularities of register variation and cultural reference


in different ways. One way is to develop options for evaluation based on choices
privileged in narratives and responses rather than trying to make the general
appraisal system fit the particularities of the texts (Macken-Horarik 1996). This
strategy involves building a register-profile for appraisal from the foundations of
the more general system, recognizing that this is relevant only for this set of
texts in this context. In this sense, Macken-Horarik’s preference is for an
instantial interpretation, shaped by key choices within text(s) rather than by
reference in the first instance to the larger system of appraisal.

So we need to attend not just to one explicit instance (inscribed attitude) but its
combination with tokens of invoked affect, judgement or appreciation. Readers are
more likely to be able to read the implicature in the final metaphor of a narrative
if they have ‘tuned in’ to the subtle power of covert evaluation in choices made in
earlier phases of the text.

1. First, identify the choices you believe to be loaded in the text. Identify
the target of the appraisal and the appraiser (source). As you identify items that
carry evaluation, start with explicit choices (inscribed attitude) and then move to
implicit choices (invoked appraisal). Identify choices that graduate attitude
either through force or focus. 2. Next, describe the cumulative effect of
these choices (in terms of their impact on you as a reader). For example, consider
attitudinal choices that confirm a feeling tone in a phase of text, contrasts in
choices, loadings, levels of force and contrasts in choices for graduation. 3.
Map syndromes of choices in one part (or stage) of the text against other parts as
the co-text shapes your apprehension of their significance. A useful strategy is to
highlight syndromes in colour and thus to get a sense of appraisal choices at a
glance (see Hood 2006 for more coding strategies of this nature). 4. Code
choices using the appraisal systems explained earlier: including attitude,
realization, loading, graduation (and again, sources of evaluation if this is
possible). Note that we have not dealt with engagement systems in this chapter.
Identify any cultural references (e.g. stolen generations, 9/11, the holocaust)
that carry evaluation in a broader context. How do choices in this text and
culturally salient references (or icons) position you (variously) as a reader?
Institutional values shape our coding of appraisal and we need to be explicit about
these our analysis. 5. Note any cases of double or triple coding and identify
these in terms of choices made salient in the text as a whole. Sometimes evaluation
carries an emotional and ethical charge; appreciation can involve Valuation, which
is both aesthetic and ethical in implication. 6. If you are dealing with a
multi-vocal text (more than one voice, for example), then decide how you will weigh
the evaluative choices made

The United States does indeed occupy a privileged position in Empire, but this
privilege derives not from its similarities to the old European imperialist powers,
but from its differences. These differences can be recognized most clearly by
focusing on the properly imperial (not imperialist) foundations of the United
States constitution, where by ‘‘constitution’’ we mean both the formal
constitution, the written document along with its various amendments and legal
apparatuses, and the material constitution, that is, the continuous formation and
re-formation of the composition of social forces. Thomas Jefferson, the authors of
the Federalist, and the other ideological founders of the United States were all
inspired by the ancient imperial model; they believed they were creating on the
other side of the Atlantic a new Empire with open, expanding frontiers, where power
would be effectively distributed in networks. This imperial idea has survived and
matured throughout the history of the United States constitution and has emerged
now on a global scale in its fully realized form.

For Kelsen, the partial ordering of the domestic law of nation-states led back
necessarily to the universality and objectivity of the international ordering. The
latter is not only logical but also ethical, for it would put an end to conflicts
between states of unequal power and affirm instead an equality that is the
principle of real international community. Behind the formal sequence that Kelsen
described, then, there was a real and substantial drive of Enlightenment
modernization. Kelsen sought, in Kantian fashion, a notion of right that could
become an “organization of humanity and [would] therefore be one with the supreme
ethical idea.’’4

was closely linked to the Christian origins of European civilizations. There the

This juridical concept involves two fundamental tendencies: first, the notion of a
right that is affirmed in the construction of a new order that envelops the entire
space of what it considers civilization, a boundless, universal space; and second,
a notion of right that encompasses all time within its ethical foundation. Empire
exhausts historical time, suspends history, and summons the past and future within
its own ethical order. In other words, Empire presents its order as permanent,
eternal, and necessary.

In the Germanic-Roman tradition that thrived throughout the Middle Ages, these two
notions of right went hand in hand.16 Beginning in the Renaissance, however, with
the triumph of secularism, these two notions were separated and each developed
independently. On the one hand, there emerged in modern European political thought
a conception of international right, and on the other, there developed utopias of
‘‘perpetual peace.’’

We should understand the society of control, in contrast, as that society (which


develops at the far edge of modernity and opens toward the postmodern) in which
mechanisms of command become ever more “democratic,” ever more immanent to the
social field, distributed throughout the brains and bodies of the citizens. The
behaviors of social integration and exclusion proper to rule are thus increasingly
interiorized within the subjects themselves.

Biopower is a form of power that regulates social life from its interior, following
it, interpreting it, absorbing it, and rearticulating it. Power can achieve an
effective command over the entire life of the population only when it becomes an
integral, vital function that every individual embraces and reactivates of his or
her own accord. As Foucault says, ‘‘Life has now become ... an object of power.’’3
The highest function of this power is to invest life through and through, and its
primary task is to administer life. Biopower thus refers to a situation in which
what is directly at stake in power is the production and reproduction of life
itself.

It does not seem, however, that Foucault—even when he powerfully grasped the
biopolitical horizon of society and defined it as a field of immanence—ever
succeeded in pulling his thought away from that structuralist epistemology that
guided his research from the beginning. By structuralist epistemology here we mean
the reinvention of a functionalist analysis in the realm of the human sciences, a
method that effectively sacrifices the dynamic of the system, the creative
temporality of its movements, and the ontological substance of cultural and social
reproduction.13 In fact, if at this point we were to ask Foucault who or what
drives the system, or rather, who is the ‘‘bios,’’ his response would be ineffable,
or nothing at all. What Foucault fails to grasp finally are the real dynamics of
production in biopolitical society.14

They focus our attention clearly on the ontological substance of social production.
Machines produce. The constant functioning of social machines in their various
apparatuses and assemblages produces the world along with the subjects and objects
that constitute it. Deleuze and Guattari, however, seem to be able to conceive
positively only the tendencies toward continuous movement and absolute flows, and
thus in their thought, too, the creative elements and the radical ontology of the
production of the social remain insubstantial and impotent. Deleuze and Guattari
discover the productivity of social reproduction (creative production, production
of values, social relations, affects, becomings), but manage to articulate it only
superficially and ephemerally, as a chaotic, indeterminate horizon marked by the
ungraspable event.15

The first consists in the analysis of the recent transformations of productive


labor and its tendency to become increasingly immaterial. The central role
previously occupied by the labor power of mass factory workers in the production of
surplus value is today increasingly filled by intellectual, immaterial, and
communicative labor power. It is thus necessary to develop a new political theory
of value that can pose the problem of this new capitalist accumulation of value at
the center of the mechanism of exploitation (and thus, perhaps, at the center of

The great industrial and financial powers thus produce not only commodities but

At this point we can begin to address the question of the legitimation of the new
world order. Its legitimation is not born of the previously existing international
accords nor of the functioning of the first, embryonic supranational organizations,
which were themselves created through treaties based on international law. The
legitimation of the imperial machine is born at least in part of the communications
industries, that is, of the transformation of the new mode of production into a
machine. It is a subject that produces its own image of authority. This is a form
of legitimation that rests on nothing outside itself and is reproposed ceaselessly

This kind of continual intervention, then, which is both moral and military, is
really the logical form of the exercise of force that follows from a paradigm of
legitimation based on a state of permanent exception and police action.
Interventions are always exceptional even though they arise continually; they take
the form of police actions because they are aimed at maintaining an internal order.
In this way intervention is an effective mechanism that through police deployments
contributes directly to the construction of the moral, normative, and institutional
order of Empire.

In effect, one might say that the sovereignty of Empire itself is realized at the
margins, where borders are flexible and identities are hybrid and fluid. It would
be difficult to say which is more important to Empire, the center or the margins.
In fact, center and margin seem continually to be shifting positions, fleeing any
determinate locations. We could even say that the process itself is virtual and
that its power resides in the power of the virtual.

If we wanted to take up again Max Weber’s famous three- part formula of the forms
of legitimation of power, the qualitative leap that Empire introduces into the
definition would consist in the unforeseeable mixture of (1) elements typical of
traditional power, (2) an extension of bureaucratic power that is adapted
physiologically to the biopolitical context, and (3) a rationality defined by the
‘‘event’’ and by ‘‘charisma’’ that rises up as a power of the singularization of
the whole and of the effectiveness of imperial interventions.35 The logic that
characterizes this neo-Weberian perspective would be functional rather than
mathematical, and rhizo- matic and undulatory rather than inductive or deductive.
It would deal with the management of linguistic sequences as sets of machinic
sequences of denotation and at the same time of creative, colloquial, and
irreducible innovation.

Today the operative syllogism at the heart of the various forms of ‘‘local’’
Leftist strategy seems to be entirely reactive: If capitalist domination is
becoming ever more global, then our resistances to it must defend the local and
construct barriers to capital’s accelerating flows. From this perspective, the real
globalization of capital and the constitution of Empire must be considered signs of
dispossession and defeat. We maintain, however, that today this localist position,

In many characterizations the problem rests on a false dichotomy between the global
and the local, assuming that the global entails homogenization and undifferentiated
identity whereas the local preserves heterogeneity and difference. Often implicit
in such arguments is the assumption that the differences of the local are in some
sense natural, or at least that their origin remains beyond question. Local
differences preexist the present scene and must be defended or protected against
the intrusion of globalization. It should come as no surprise, given such
assumptions, that many defenses of the local adopt the terminology of traditional
ecology or even identify this ‘‘local’’ political project with the defense of
nature and biodiversity. This view can easily devolve into a kind of primordialism
that fixes and romanticizes social relations and identities. What needs to be
addressed, instead, is precisely the production of locality, that is, the social
machines that create and recreate the identities and differences that are
understood as the local.4 The differences of locality are neither preexisting nor
natural but rather effects of a regime of production. Globality similarly should
not be understood in terms of cultural, political, or economic homog- enization.
Globalization, like localization, should be understood instead as a regime of the
production of identity and difference, or really of homogenization and
heterogenization.

The better framework, then, to designate the distinction between the global and the
local might refer to different networks of flows and obstacles in which the local
moment or perspective gives priority to the reterritorializing barriers or
boundaries and the global moment privileges the mobility of deterritorializing
flows. It is false, in any case, to claim that we can (re)establish local
identities that are in some sense outside and protected against the global flows of

In other words, (potential) revolutionaries in other parts of the world did not

Second, all the struggles destroy the traditional distinction between economic and

In the constitution of Empire there is no longer an ‘‘outside’’ to power and thus


no longer weak links—if by weak link we mean an external point where the
articulations of global power are vulnerable.19 To achieve significance, every
struggle must attack at the heart of Empire, at its strength. That fact, however,
does not give priority to any geographical regions, as if only social movements in
Washington, Geneva, or Tokyo could attack the heart of Empire. On the contrary, the
construction of Empire, and the globalization of economic and cultural
relationships, means that the virtual center of Empire can be attacked from any
point. The tactical preoccupations of the old revolutionary school are thus
completely irretrievable; the only strategy available to the struggles is that of a
constituent counterpower that emerges from within Empire.

We identify three moments in the constitution of European modernity that articulate


the initial figure of the modern concept of sovereignty: first, the revolutionary
discovery of the plane of immanence; second, the reaction against these immanent
forces and the crisis in the form of authority; and third, the partial and
temporary resolution of this crisis in the formation of the modern state as a locus
of sovereignty that transcends and mediates the plane of immanent forces. In this
progression European modernity itself becomes increasingly inseparable from the
principle of sovereignty.

On the one hand, Renaissance humanism initiated a revolutionary notion of human


equality, of singularity and community, cooperation and multitude, that resonated
with forces and desires extending horizontally across the globe, redoubled by the
discovery of other populations and territories. On the other hand, however, the
same counterrevolutionary power that sought to control the constituent and
subversive forces within Europe also began to realize the possibility and necessity
of subordinating other populations to European domination. Eurocentrism was born as
a reaction to the potentiality of a newfound human equality; it was the
counterrevolution on a global scale. Here too the second mode of modernity gained
the upper hand, but again not in a definitive way. European modernity is from its
beginnings a war on two fronts. European mastery is always in crisis—and this is
the very same crisis that defines European modernity.

Descartes surreptitiously reproposes theology on the terrain that humanism had


cleared, and its apparatus is resolutely transcendental. With Descartes we are at
the beginning of the history of the Enlightenment, or rather bourgeois ideology.20
The transcendental apparatus he proposes is the distinctive trademark of European
Enlightenment thought. In both the empiricist and the idealist currents,
transcendentalism was the exclusive horizon of ideology, and in the successive
centuries nearly all the major currents of philosophy would be drawn into this
project.

Romanticism was never expressed so strongly as it is in Kant. This is the leitmotif


of Kantian philosophy: the necessity of the transcendental, the impossibility of
every form of immediacy, the exorcism of every vital figure in the apprehension and
action of being. From this perspective one should perhaps consider Arthur
Schopenhauer the most lucid reader of Kantianism and its Romantic gesture. The fact
that it is difficult if not impossible to reunite the appearance of the thing with
the thing itself is precisely the curse of this world of pain and need. And this is
therefore not a world constructed in a way so that noble and high forces, forces
that tend to truth and light, can prosper.22 In other words, Schopenhauer
recognizes Kantianism as the definitive liquidation of the humanist revolution.

The transcendental theory of modern sovereignty, thus reaching maturity, realizes a

administration develops, the relationship between society and power, between the

Foucault refers to this transition as the passage from the paradigm of sovereignty
to that of governmentality, where by sovereignty he means the transcendence of the
single point of command above the social field, and by governmentality he means the
general economy of discipline that runs throughout society.34 We prefer to conceive
of this as a passage within the notion of sovereignty, as a transition to a new

It is obvious that, although this process preserved the materiality of the


relationship to the sovereign, many elements changed. Most important, as the
patrimonial horizon was transformed into the national horizon, the feudal order of
the subject (subjectus) yielded to the disciplinary order of the citizen (cives).
The shift of the population from subjects to citizens was an index of the shift

The precarious power of sovereignty as a solution to the crisis of modernity was


first referred for support to the nation, and then when the nation too was revealed
as a precarious solution, it was further referred to the people. In other words,
just as the concept of nation completes the notion of sovereignty by claiming to
precede it, so too the concept of the people completes that of nation through
another feigned logical regression. Each logical step back functions to solidify

relations, which is not homogeneous or identical with itself and bears an
indistinct, inclusive relation to those outside ofit. The people, in contrast,
tends toward identity and homogeneity internally while posing its difference from

constituent relation, the people is a constituted synthesis that is prepared for
sovereignty. The people provides a single will and action that is independent of

deterritorializing specter that had haunted Europe and the world, and that from the

bring together deserters, internationalist partisans, striking workers, and

In fact, totalitarianism consists not simply in totalizing the effects of social


life and subordinating them to a global disciplinary norm, but also in the negation
of social life itself, the erosion of its foundation, and the theoretical and
practical stripping away of the very possibility of the existence of the multitude.
What is totalitarian is the organic foundation and the unified source of society
and the state. The community is not a dynamic collective creation but a primordial

The point here is not simply to denounce the irrationality of the bourgeoisie, but
to understand how slavery and servitude can be perfectly compatible with capitalist
production, as mechanisms that limit the mobility of the labor force and block its
movements. Slavery, servitude, and all the other guises of the coercive
organization of labor—from coolieism in the Pacific and peonage in Latin America to
apartheid in South Africa—are all essential elements internal to the processes of
capitalist development.

moral arguments at home nor calculations of profitability abroad could move


European capital to dismantle the slave regimes. Only the revolt and revolution
ofslaves themselves could provide an adequate lever. Just as capital moves forward
to restructure production and employ new technologies only as a response to the
organized threat ofworker antagonism, so too European capital would not relinquish
slave production until the organized slaves posed a threat to their power and made
that system of production untenable. In other words, slavery was not abandoned for

not dialectical, and no idealist rhetorical gymnastics can make them conform to the
dialect. The strategy of negativity, however, the moment of the boomerang, appears
in an entirely different light when it is cast in a nondialectical form and in
political rather than cultural terms. Fanon, for example, refuses the cultural
politics of negritude with its consciousness of black identity and poses the
revolutionary antithesis instead in terms of physical violence. The original moment
of violence is that of colonialism: the domination and exploitation of the
colonized by the colonizer. The second moment, the response of the colonized to
this original violence, can take all sorts of perverted forms in the colonial
context. ‘‘The colonized man will first manifest this aggressiveness which has been
deposited in his bones against his own people.’’31 The violence among the colonized
population, sometimes thought to be the residues of ancient tribal or religious
antagonisms, is really the pathological reflections of the violence of colonialism
that most often surfaces as superstitions, myths, dances, and mental disorders.

The various postmodernist and postcolonialist theories that have emerged since the
1980s give us a first view of this passage, but the perspective they offer proves
to be quite limited. As the prefix ‘‘post-’’ should indicate, postmodernist and
postcolonialist theorists never tire of critiquing and seeking liberation from the
past forms of rule and their legacies in the present. Postmodernists continually
return to the lingering influence of the Enlightenment as the source of domination;
postcolonialist theorists combat the remnants of colonialist thinking. We suspect
that postmodernist and postcolonialist theories may end up in a dead end because
they fail to recognize adequately the contemporary object of critique, that is,
they mistake today’s real enemy.

When postmodernists propose their opposition to a modernity and an Enlightenment
that exalt the universality of reason only to sustain white male European
supremacy, it should be clear that they are really attacking the second tradition
of our schema (and unfortunately ignoring or eclipsing the first). It would be more
accurate, in other words, to pose postmodernist theory as a challenge neither to
the Enlightenment nor to modernity in toto but specifically to the tradition of
modern sovereignty. More precisely still, these various theoretical contestations
are brought together most coherently in a challenge to the dialectic as the central
logic of modern domination, exclusion, and command—for both its relegating the
multiplicity of difference to binary oppositions and its subsequent subsumption of
these differences in a unitary order. If modern power itself is dialectical, the
logic goes, then the postmodernist project must be nondialectical.

In fact, fundamentalist visions of a return to the past are generally based on


historical illusions. The purity and wholesomeness of the stable, nuclear
heterosexual family heralded by Christian fundamentalists, for example, never

ideological foundation is merely a pastiche of values and practices that derives
more from television programs than from any real historical experiences within the

Main Street U.S.A. at Disneyland, constructed retrospectively through the lens of

Many of the concepts dear to postmodernists and postcolonialists find a perfect

The ideology of the world market has always been the anti-foundational and anti-

mixture are its very conditions ofpossibility. Trade brings differences together
and the more the merrier! Differences (of commodities, populations, cultures, and

On the other hand, postmodernist thinking—with its emphasis on concepts such as


difference and multiplicity, its celebration offetishism and simulacra, its
continual fascination with the new and with fashion—is an excellent description of
the ideal capitalist schemes of commodity consumption and thus provides an
opportunity to perfect marketing strategies. As a marketing theorist says, there
are clear ‘‘parallels between contemporary market practices and the precepts of
post- modernism.’’21 Marketing itself is a practice based on differences, and the
more differences that are given, the more marketing strategies can develop. Ever
more hybrid and differentiated populations present a proliferating number
of‘‘target markets’’ that can each be addressed by specific marketing strategies—
one for gay Latino males between the ages of eighteen and twenty-two, another for
Chinese-American teenage girls, and so forth. Postmodern marketing recognizes the
difference of each commodity and each segment of the population, fashioning its
strategies accordingly.22

Postmodern marketing practices represent the consumption cycle of contemporary


capital, its external face, but we are even more interested in the postmodernist
tendencies within the cycle of capitalist production. In the productive sphere,
postmodernist thinking has perhaps had the largest direct impact in the field of
management and organization theory. Authors in this field argue that large and
complex modern organizations, with their rigid boundaries and homogeneous units,
are not adequate for doing business in the postmodern world. ‘‘The postmodern
organization,’’ one theorist writes, ‘‘has certain distinctive features—notably, an
emphasis on small-to-moderate size and complexity and adoption of flexible
structures and modes of interinstitutional cooperation to meet turbulent
organizational and environmental conditions.’’23 Postmodern organizations are thus
imagined either as located on the boundaries between different systems and cultures
or as internally hybrid. What is essential for postmodern management is that
organizations be mobile, flexible, and able to deal with difference. Here
postmodernist theories pave the way for the transformation of the internal
structures of capitalist organizations.

We will have ample opportunity to analyze (particularly in Section 3.4) how


production has come to be organized in flexible and hybrid networks. This is, in
our view, the most important respect in which the contemporary transformations of

The postmodernist epistemological challenge to ‘‘the Enlightenment’’—its attack on
master narratives and its critique of truth— also loses its liberatory aura when
transposed outside the elite intellectual strata of Europe and North America.
Consider, for example, the mandate of the Truth Commission formed at the end of the
civil war in El Salvador, or the similar institutions that have been established in
the post-dictatorial and post-authoritarian regimes of Latin America and South
Africa. In the context of state terror and mystification, clinging to the primacy
of the concept of truth can be a powerful and necessary form of resistance.
Establishing and making public the truth of the recent past—attributing
responsibility to state officials for specific acts and in some cases exacting
retribu- tion—appears here as the ineluctable precondition for any democratic
future. The master narratives of the Enlightenment do not seem particularly
repressive here, and the concept of truth is not fluid or unstable—on the contrary!
The truth is that this general ordered the torture and assassination of that union
leader, and this colonel led the massacre of that village.

Difference, hybridity, and mobility are not liberatory in themselves, but neither
are truth, purity, and stasis. The real revolutionary practice refers to the level
of production. Truth will not make us free, but taking control of the production of
truth will. Mobility and hybridity are not liberatory, but taking control of the
production of mobility and stasis, purities and mixtures is. The real truth
commissions of Empire will be constituent assemblies of the multitude, social
factories for the production of truth.

quite significant, namely, the set of mechanisms through which the basic biological
features of the human species became the object of a political strategy, of a
general strategy of power, or, in other words, how, starting from the eighteenth
century, modern western societies took on board the fundamental biological fact
that human beings are a species.

domain, the imperative discourse that consists in saying “love this, hate that,
this is good, that is bad, be for this, beware of that,” seems to me, at present at
any rate, to be no more than an aesthetic discourse that can only be based on
choices of an aesthetic order. And the imperative discourse that consists in saying
“strike against this and do so in this way,” seems to me to be very flimsy when
delivered from a teaching institution or even just on a piece of paper. In any
case, it seems to me that the dimension of what is to be done can only appear
within a field of real forces, that is to say within a field of forces that cannot
be created by a speaking subject alone and on the basis of his words, because it is
a field of forces that cannot in any way be controlled or asserted within this kind
of imperative discourse. So, since there has to be an imperative, I would like the
one underpinning the theoretical analysis we are attempting to be quite simply a
conditional imperative of the kind: If you want to struggle, here are some key
points, here are some lines of force, here are some constrictions and blockages. In
other words, I would like these imperatives to be no more than tactical pointers.

Putting it in a still absolutely general way, the apparatus of security inserts the
phenomenon in question, namely theft, within a series of probable events. Second,
the reactions of power to this phenomenon are inserted in a calculation of cost.
Finally, third, instead of a binary division between the permitted and the
prohibited, one establishes an average considered as optimal on the one hand, and,
on the other, a bandwidth of the acceptable that must not be exceeded. In this way
a completely different distribution of things and mechanisms takes shape.

So, there is not a series of successive elements, the appearance of the new causing
the earlier ones to disappear. There is not the legal age, the disciplinary age,
and then the age of security. Mechanisms of security do not replace disciplinary
mechanisms, which would have replaced juridico-legal mechanisms. In reality you
have a series of complex edifices in which, of course, the techniques themselves
change and are perfected, or anyway become more complicated, but in which what
above all changes is the dominant characteristic, or more exactly, the system of
correlation between juridico-legal mechanisms, disciplinary mechanisms, and
mechanisms of security.

state must be like an edifice in relation to these three elements. The peasants, of
course, are the foundations of the edifice, in the ground, under the ground, unseen
but ensuring the solidity of the whole. The common parts, the service quarters of
the edifice, are, of course, the artisans. As for the noble quarters, the living

On the basis of this architectural metaphor, the territory must also comprise

The milieu, then, will be that in which circulation is carried out. The milieu is a

Finally, the milieu appears as a field of intervention in which, instead of


affecting individuals as a set of legal subjects capable of voluntary actions -
which would be the case of sovereignty - and instead of affecting them as a
multiplicity of organisms, of bodies capable of performances, and of required
performances - as in discipline - one tries to affect, precisely, a population. I
mean a multiplicity of individuals who are and fundamentally and essentially only
exist biologically bound to the materiality within which they live. What one tries
to reach through this milieu, is precisely the conjunction of a series of events
produced by these individuals, populations, and groups, and quasi natural events

What happens to grain between seeding and the time when it will have finally
produced all the profits that it can? The unit of analysis will no longer be the
market therefore, with its effects of scarcity-dearness, but grain with everything
that may happen to it and will happen to it naturally, as it were, according to a
mechanism and laws in which the quality of the land, the care with which it is
cultivated, the climatic conditions of dryness, heat, and humidity, and finally the
abundance or scarcity, of course, and its marketing and so forth, will also play a
part. The event on which one tries to get a hold will be the reality of grain, much

It means allowing prices to rise where their tendency is to rise. We allow the
phenomenon of dearness-scarcity to be produced and develop on such and such a
market, on a whole series of markets, and this phenomenon, this reality which we
have allowed to develop, will itself entail precisely its own self-curbing and
selfregulation. So there will no longer be any scarcity in general, on condition
that for a whole series of people, in a whole series of markets, there was some
scarcity, some dearness, some difficulty in buying wheat, and consequently some
hunger, and it may well be that some people die of hunger after all.

They really act as members of the population. But suppose that precisely in a given
market, in a given town, instead of waiting, instead of putting up with scarcity,
instead of accepting costly grain, instead of accepting consequently to buy little,
instead of accepting hunger, and instead of [waiting][37] for the wheat to arrive
in sufficient quantity so that prices fall or the rise is at any rate attenuated or
slows down a bit, suppose that instead of all this, on the one hand, the people
throw themselves on the supplies, that they even seize them without paying, and, on
the other hand, suppose some people hold back grain irrationally on the basis of
bad calculations, and everything jams. The result will be revolt on the one hand,
and monopolization on the other, or monopolization and revolt. Fine, says Abeille,
all this proves that these people do not really belong to the population. What are
they? Well, this is the people. The people comprises those who conduct themselves
in relation to the management of the population, at the level of the population, as
if they were not part of the population as a collective subject-object, as if they
put themselves outside of it, and consequently the people is those who, refusing to
be the population, disrupt the

Discipline is essentially centripetal. I mean that discipline functions to the


extent that it isolates a space, that it determines a segment. Discipline
concentrates, focuses, and encloses. The first action of discipline is in fact to
circumscribe a space in which its power and the mechanisms of its power will
function fully and without limit. And precisely, if we take again the example of
the disciplinary police of grain as it existed until the middle of the eighteenth
century, as set out in hundreds of pages in Delamare’s Traité de la police,- we see
that the disciplinary police of grain is in actual fact centripetal. It isolates,
it concentrates, it encloses, it is protectionist, and it focuses essentially on
action on the market or on the space of the market and what surrounds it.

There is a second major difference. By definition, discipline regulates everything.


Discipline allows nothing to escape. Not only does it not allow things to run their
course, its principle is that things, the smallest things, must not be abandoned to
themselves. The smallest infraction of discipline must be taken up with all the
more care for it being small.

The disciplinary mechanism also constantly codifies in terms of the permitted and
forbidden, or rather the obligatory and the forbidden, which means that the point
on which the disciplinary mechanism focuses is not so much the things one must not
do as the things that must be done. A good discipline tells you what you must do at
every moment. If we take monastic life as a model of disciplinary saturation, and
monasticism was actually the point of departure and matrix of discipline, then what
the monk does is entirely regulated, from morning to night and from night to
morning, and the only thing undetermined is what is not said and what is therefore
forbidden. In the system of the law, what is undetermined is what is permitted; in
the system of disciplinary regulation, what is determined is what one must do, and
consequently everything else, being undetermined, is prohibited.

It seems to me that in the apparatus of security, as I have presented it, what is


involved is precisely not taking either the point of view of what is prevented or
the point of view of what is obligatory, but standing back sufficiently so that one
can grasp the point at which things are taking place, whether or not they are
desirable. This means trying to grasp them at the level of their nature, or let’s
say - this word not having the meaning we now give it[41] - grasping them at the
level of their effective reality. The mechanism of security works on the basis of
this reality, by trying to use it as a support and make it function, make its
components function in relation to each other. In other words, the law prohibits
and discipline prescribes, and the essential function of security, without
prohibiting or prescribing, but possibly making use of some instruments of
prescription and prohibition, is to respond to a reality in such a way that this
response cancels out the reality to which it responds - nullifies it, or limits,
checks, or regulates it. I think this regulation within the element of reality is
fundamental in apparatuses of security.

We could even say that the law works in the imaginary, since the law imagines and
can only formulate all the things that could and must not be done by imagining
them. It imagines the negative. Discipline works in a sphere that is, as it were,
complementary to reality. Man is wicked, bad, and has evil thoughts and
inclinations, etcetera. So, within the disciplinary space a complementary sphere of
prescriptions and obligations is constituted that is all the more artificial and
constraining as the nature of reality is tenacious and difficult to overcome.
Finally security, unlike the law that works in the imaginary and discipline that
works in a sphere complementary to reality, tries to work within reality, by
getting the components of reality to work in relation to each other, thanks to and
through a series of analyses and specific arrangements. So, I think we arrive at
this idea that is essential for the thought and organization of modern political
societies: that the task of politics is not to see to the establishment within
men’s behavior of the set of laws imposed by God or necessitated by men’s evil
nature. Politics has to work in the element of a reality that the physiocrats
called, precisely, physics, when they said that economics is a physics.

More precisely and particularly, freedom is nothing else but the correlative of the
deployment of apparatuses of security. An apparatus of security, in any case the
one I have spoken about, cannot operate well except on condition that it is given
freedom, in the modern sense [the word][43] acquires in the eighteenth century: no
longer the exemptions and privileges attached to a person, but the possibility of
movement, change of place, and processes of circulation of both people and things.
I think it is this freedom of circulation, in the broad sense of the term, it is in
terms of this option of circulation, that we should understand the word freedom,
and understand it as one of the facets, aspects, or dimensions of the deployment of
apparatuses of security.

I would even say instead that, if it is true that the law refers to a norm, and
that the role and function of the law therefore - the very operation of the law -
is to codify a norm, to carry out a codification in relation to the norm, the
problem that I am trying to mark out is how techniques of normalization develop
from and below a system of law, in its margins and maybe even against it.

Discipline, of course, analyzes and breaks down; it breaks down individuals,


places, time, movements, actions, and operations. It breaks them down into
components such that they can be seen, on the one hand, and modified on the other.
It is this famous disciplinary, analytical-practical grid that tries to establish
the minimal elements of perception and the elements sufficient for modification.

Fourth, discipline fixes the processes of progressive training (dressage) and

The second thing is that with regard to the morbidity or mortality considered to be
normal, one tries to arrive at a finer analysis that will make it possible to
disengage different normalities in relation to each other. One will get the
“normal” distribution* of cases of and deaths due to smallpox (la petite vérole)§
for every age, in each region, town, and different areas of the town, and in terms
of different occupations. Thus one will have the normal, overall curve, and
different curves considered to be normal. What technique will be used in relation
to this? It will be to try to reduce the most unfavorable, deviant normalities in
relation to the normal, general curve, to bring them in line with this normal,
general curve.

In the disciplines one started from a norm, and it was in relation to the training
carried out with reference to the norm that the normal could be distinguished from
the abnormal. Here, instead, we have a plotting of the normal and the abnormal, of
different curves of normality, and the operation of normalization consists in
establishing an interplay between these different distributions of normality and
[in] acting to bring the most unfavorable in line with the more favorable. So we
have here something that starts from the normal and makes use of certain
distributions considered to be, if you like, more normal than the others, or at any
rate more favorable than the others. These distributions will serve as the norm.
The norm is an interplay of differential normalities.*

Second, I would like to note that these three phenomena, or three problems rather -
the street, grain, and contagion, or the town, scarcity, and epidemics - share the
fact that they all more or less turn on the problem of circulation. I mean, of
course, circulation in the very broad sense of movement, exchange, and contact, as
form of dispersion, and also as form of distribution, the problem being: How should
things circulate or not circulate?

Now it seems to me that through the obviously very partial phenomena that I have
tried to pick out we see the emergence of a completely different problem that is no
longer that of fixing and demarcating the territory, but of allowing circulations
to take place, of controlling them, sifting the good and the bad, ensuring that
things are always in movement, constantly moving around, continually going from one
point to another, but in such a way that the inherent dangers of this circulation
are cancelled out. No longer the safety (sûreté) of the prince and his territory,
but the security (sécurité) of the population and, consequently, of those who
govern it. I think this is another very important change.

They do not attempt, at least not primarily or in a fundamental way, to make use of
a relationship of obedience between a higher will, of the sovereign, and the wills
of those subjected to his will. In other words, the mechanism of security does not
function on the axis of the sovereign-subjects relationship, ensuring the total and
as it were passive obedience of individuals to their sovereign. They are connected
to what the physiocrats called physical processes, which could be called natural
processes, and which we could also call elements of reality. These mechanisms do
not tend to a nullification of phenomena in the form of the prohibition, “you will
not do this,” nor even, “this will not happen,” but in the form of a progressive
self-cancellation of phenomena by the phenomena themselves. In a way, they involve
the delimitation of phenomena within acceptable limits, rather than the imposition
of a law that says no to them. So mechanisms of security are not put to work on the
sovereign-subjects axis or in the form of the prohibition.

What was called the population was basically the contrary of depopulation. That is
to say, “population” was understood as the movement by which a deserted territory
was repopulated after a great disaster, be it an epidemic, war, or food shortage,
after one of these great dramatic moments in which people died with spectacular
rapidity and intensity. Let’s say that the problem of population was posed in
relation to the desert or desertification due to major human catastrophes.

In fact, the variables on which population depends are such that to a very
considerable extent it escapes the sovereign’s voluntarist and direct action in the
form of the law. If one says to a population “do this,” there is not only no
guarantee that it will do it, but also there is quite simply no guarantee that it
can do it.

The population appears therefore as a kind of thick natural phenomenon in relation


to the sovereign’s legalistic voluntarism. To say that population is a natural
phenomenon that cannot be changed by decree does not mean, however, that it is an
inaccessible and impenetrable nature, quite the contrary. And this is where the
analysis of the physiocrats and economists becomes interesting, in that the
naturalness identified in the fact of population is constantly accessible to agents
and techniques of transformation, on condition that these agents and techniques are
at once enlightened, reflected, analytical, calculated, and calculating. Not only
must voluntary changes in the law be considered if the laws are unfavorable to the
population, but above all, if one wants to encourage population, or achieve the
right relationship between the population and the state’s resources and
possibilities, then one must act on a range of factors and elements that seem far
removed from the population itself and its immediate behavior, fecundity, and
desire to reproduce. For

We could also say that the naturalness of the population appears in a second way in
the fact that this population is of course made up of individuals who are quite
different from each other and whose behavior, within a certain limit at least,
cannot be accurately predicted. Nevertheless, according to the first theorists of
population in the eighteenth century, there is at least one invariant that means
that the population taken as a whole has one and only one mainspring of action.
This is desire. Desire is an old notion that first appeared and was employed in
spiritual direction (to which, possibly, we may be able to return),* and it makes
its second appearance within techniques of power and government.

Every individual acts out of desire. One can do nothing against desire. As Quesnay
says: You cannot stop people from living where they think they will profit most and
where they desire to live, because they desire that profit. Do not try to change
them; things will not change.- However - and it is here that this naturalness of
desire thus marks the population and becomes accessible to governmental technique -
for reasons to which we will have to come back and which are one of the important
theoretical elements of the whole system, this desire is such that, if one gives it
free play, and on condition that it is given free play, all things considered,
within a certain limit and thanks to a number of relationships and connections, it
will produce the general interest of the population. Desire is the pursuit of the
individual’s interest. In his desire the individual may well be deceived regarding
his personal interest, but there is something that does not deceive, which is that
the spontaneous, or at any rate both spontaneous and regulated play of desire will
in fact allow the production of an interest, of something favorable for the
population. The production of the collective interest through the play of desire is
what distinguishes both the naturalness of population and the possible
artificiality of the means one adopts to manage it.

person who can say no to any individual’s desire, the problem being how to
legitimize this “no” opposed to individuals’ desire and found it on the will of
these same individuals. Now through the economic-political thought of the
physiocrats we see a completely different idea taking shape, which is that the
problem of those who govern must absolutely not be how they can say no, up to what
point they can say no, and with what legitimacy they can say no. The problem is how
they can say yes; it is how to say yes to this desire. The problem is not therefore
the limit of concupiscence or the limit of self-esteem in the sense of love of
oneself, but concerns rather everything that stimulates and encourages this
selfesteem, this desire, so that it can produce its necessary beneficial effects.
We have here therefore the matrix of an entire, let’s say, utilitarian philosophy.

Now it is enough to observe these phenomena that should be irregular, it is enough


to look at them and count them, to realize that in actual fact they are regular.
This was the great discovery of the Englishman Graunt* at the end of the
seventeenth century, who, precisely with reference to mortality tables, not only
managed to establish that there was a constant number of deaths every year in a
town, but also that there was a constant proportion of different accidents, however
varied, that produce this death.

From one direction, then, population is the human species, and from another it is
what will be called the public. Here again, the word is not new, but its usage is.-
The public, which is a crucial notion in the eighteenth century, is the population
seen under the aspect of its opinions, ways of doing things, forms of behavior,
customs, fears, prejudices, and requirements; it is what one gets a hold on through
education, campaigns, and convictions.

I think we could say the same thing with regard to the transition from general
grammar to historical philology.* General grammar was the analysis of the relations
between linguistic signs and representations of any speaking subject whomsoever, or
of the speaking subject in general. The birth of philology became possible when a
series of investigations in different countries, particularly in central Europe,
and also in Russia for political reasons, succeeded in identifying the relationship
between a population and a language, and in which, as a result, the problem was how
in the course of history, and in terms of the specific regularities, not of the
population, but of its language, the population, as collective subject, could
transform the language it spoke. Here again, I think it is the introduction of the
subject-population that makes possible the transition from general grammar to
philology.

There is the problem of the government of oneself, for example The sixteenth
century return to Stoicism revolves around this reactualization of the problem of
how to govern oneself There is also the problem of the government of souls and of
conduct, which was, of course, the problem of Catholic or Protestant pastoral
doctrine There is the problem of the government of children, with the emergence and
development of the great problematic of pedagogy in the sixteenth century And then,
perhaps only the last of these problems, there is that of the government of the
state by the prince How to govern oneself, how to be governed, by whom should we
accept to be governed, how to be the best possible governor?

one established through the compromise of treaties and the complicity or agreement
of other princes, it is, in any case, a purely synthetic link, there is no
fundamental, essential, natural, and juridical connection between the Prince and
his principality externality, the Prince’s transcendence, is the principle A
corollary of this principle is, of course, that inasmuch as it is an external

outside, by the Prince’s enemies who want to take, or re-conquer, his principality,
and it is also threatened internally, for there is no a priori or immediate reason

What is important here is that, notwithstanding this typology, these arts of


government refer to and postulate an essential continuity from one to the other
Whereas the doctrine of the Prince or the juridical theory of the sovereign
constantly try to make clear the discontinuity between the Prince’s power and any
other form of power, which involves explaining, asserting, and founding this
discontinuity, in these arts of government one must try to identify both an upward
and a downward continuity Princ LaPoilitque duPrince

In any case, you can see that the essential component, the central element in this
continuity, both in the Prince’s education and in police, is the government of the
family, which is called precisely "economy” The art of government essentially
appears in this literature as having to answer the question of how to introduce
economy - that is to say, the proper way of managing individuals, goods, and
wealth, like the management of a family by a father who knows how to direct his
wife, his children, and his servants, who knows how to make his family’s fortune
prosper, and how to arrange suitable alliances for it - how to introduce this
meticulous attention, this type of relationship between father and the family, into
the management of the state? The essential issue of government will be the
introduction of economy into political practice

Rousseau still poses the problem in the same terms, saying roughly The word
"economy” originally designates "the wise government of the house for the common
good of the whole family ”* The problem, Rousseau says, is how to introduce this
wise government of the family, mutatis mutandis, and with the discontinuities that
we will note, within the general management of the state 1 To govern a state will
thus mean the application of economy, the establishment of an economy, at the level
of the state as a whole, that is to say, [exercising]1 supervision and control over
its inhabitants, wealth, and the conduct of all and each, as attentive as that of a
father’s over his household and goods An expression that was important in the
eighteenth century describes this very well Quesnay speaks of good government as
"economic government

From the Middle Ages to the sixteenth century, sovereignty is not exercised on
things, but first of all on a territory, and consequently on the subjects who
inhabit it In this sense we can say that the territory really is the fundamental
element both of Machiavelli’s principality and of the juridical sovereignty of the
sovereign as defined by philosophers or legal theorists Obviously, these
territories may be fertile or barren, they may be densely or sparsely populated,
the people may be rich or poor, active or idle, but all these elements are only
variables in relation to the territory that is the very foundation of the
principality or of sovereignty

Now we can see that in La Perrière’s text the definition of government does not
refer to the territory in any way one governs things What does La Perrière mean
when he says that government governs "things’? I do not think it is a matter of an
opposition between things and men, but rather of showing that government is not
related to the territory, but to a sort of complex of men and things The things
government must be concerned about, La Perrière says, are men in their
relationships, bonds, and complex involvements with things like wealth, resources,
means of subsistence, and, of course, the territory with its borders, qualities,
climate, dryness, fertility, and so on "Things” are men in their relationships with
things like customs, habits, ways of acting and thinking Finally, they are men in
their relationships with things like accidents, misfortunes, famine, epidemics, and
death

What do jurists and theologians say when we look at the real content that they give
to this common good? They say that the common good exists when all subjects obey
the law without fail, perform their appointed tasks well, practice the trades to
which they are assigned, and respect the established order, insofar as this order
conforms to the laws imposed by God on nature and men That is to say, the public
good is essentially obedience to the law, either to the earthly sovereign’s law, or
to the law of the absolute sovereign, God In any case, what characterizes the end
of sovereignty, this common or general good, is ultimately nothing other than
submission to this law This means that the end of sovereignty is circular, it
refers back to the exercise of sovereignty The good is obedience to the law, so
that the good proposed by sovereignty is that people obey it There is an essential
circularity that, whatever its theoretical structure, moral justification, or
practical effects, is not so far removed from Machiavelli saying that the Prince’s
main objective must be to preserve his principality, we always come back to this
circular relationship of sovereignty, or the principality, to itself

Now, with La Pemere’s new definition, with his search for a definition of defined
by La Pernere as a right way of arranging (disposer) things in order to lead
(conduire) them, not to the form of the "common good,” as the texts of the jurists
This imp lies, first of all, a plurality of specific ends For example, the
government will have to ensure that the greatest possible amount of wealth is
produced, that the people are provided with sufficient means of subsistence, and
that the population can increase So, the objective of government will be a series
of specific finalities And one will arrange (disposer) things to achieve these
different ends This word “disposer" is important because, what enabled sovereignty
to achieve its aim of obedience to the laws, was the law itself, law and
sovereignty were absolutely united Here, on the contrary, it is not a matter of
imposing a law on men, but of the disposition of things, that is to say, of
employing tactics rather than laws, or, of as far as possible employing laws as
tactics, arranging things so that this or that end may be achieved through a
certain number of means

I think this marks an important break Whereas the end of sovereignty is internal to
itself and gets its instruments from itself in the form of law, the end of
government is internal to the things it directs (diriger), it is to be sought in
the perfection, maximization, or intensification of the processes it directs, and
the instruments of government will become diverse tactics rather than laws
Consequently, law recedes, or rather, law is certainly not the major instrument in
the perspective of what government should be

Finally, a fourth remark or bearing taken on this text by Guillaume de La Perrière,


but on a simple, elementary, and very quick point La Perrière says that someone who
knows how to govern well, a good governor, must possess “patience, wisdom, and
diligence"* What does he mean by “patience"? Well, when he wants to explain the
word patience he takes the example of what he calls “the king of the honey bees,"
the bumblebee, and he says The bumblebee reigns over the hive - this is not true,
but it’s not important - without need of a sting 1 Through this, God wished to
show, in a “mystical" way, he says, that the true governor should not need a sting,
that is, a weapon for killing, a sword, in order to exercise his government He must
have patience rather than anger, and it is not the right to kill, to assert his
strength, that should be essential in the figure of the governor What positive
content is to be given to this absence of a sting? It will be wisdom and diligence
The wisdom required of someone who governs is not exactly the wisdom of tradition,
in the form of the knowledge of human and divine laws, of justice and equity, but
rather wisdom as, precisely, the knowledge of things, of the objectives that can
and must be attained, and the “disposition (disposition)" one must employ in order
to attain them this is the knowledge that constitutes the sovereign’s wisdom As for
diligence, this is precisely what ensures that the sovereign, or rather one who
governs, should govern only in a way such that he will consider himself and act as
if he were in the service of those who are governed Here again La Perrière refers
to the example of the father The father is someone who rises earlier than anyone
else, who is the last to go to bed, and who watches over everything because he
thinks of himself as being in the service of his household *

from the sixteenth century the theory of the art of government was linked to the
development of the administrative apparatus of the territorial monarchies (the
emergence of government apparatuses and relays, etcetera) It was also linked to a
set of analyses and forms of knowledge that began to develop at the end of the
sixteenth century and increased in scope in the seventeenth century, essentially
knowledge of the state in its different elements, dimensions, and the factors of
its strength, which was called, precisely, "statistics,” meaning science of the
state

How in fact did the problem of population moke possible the release of the ort of
government? The perspective of population, the reality of phenomena specific to
population, mokes it possible to eliminate the model of the family opd to re-focus
the notion of economy on something else In fact, statistics, which had hitherto
functioned within administrative frameworks, opd so in terms of the functioning of
(Paris R Laffenlpl 1947) p 279 "POTae fam'LesUe5thateuamedals ^Republics" ^
sovereignty, now discovers and gradually reveals that the population possesses its
own regularities its death rate, its incidence of disease, its regularities of
accidents Statistics also shows that the population also involves specific,
aggregate effects and that these phenomena are irreducible to those of the family
major epidemics, endemic expansions, the spiral of labor and wealth Statistics
[further] shows that, through its movements, its customs, and its activity,
population has specific economic effects Statistics enables the specific phenomena
of population to be quantified and thereby reveals that this specificity is
irreducible [to the] small framework of the family Apart from some residual themes,
such as moral or religious themes, the family disappears as the model of government

On the other hand, the family now appears as an element within the population and
as a fundamental relay in its government In other words, prior to the emergence of
the problematic of population, the art of government could only be conceived on the
basis of the model of the family, in terms of economy understood as management of
the family When, however, the population appears as absolutely irreducible to the
family, the result is that the latter falls to a lower level than the population,
it appears as an element within the population It is therefore no longer a model,
it is a segment whose privilege is simply that when one wants to obtain something
from the population concerning sexual behavior, demography, the birth rate, or
consumption, then one has to utilize the family The family will change from being a
model to being an instrument, it will become a privileged instrument for the
government of the population rather than a chimerical model for good government The
shift from the level of model to that of instrument in relation to the population
is absolutely fundamental And in actual fact, from the middle of the eighteenth
century, the family really does appear in this instrumental relation to the
population, in the campaigns on mortality, campaigns concerning marriage,
vaccinations, and inoculations, and so on What enables population to unblock the
art of government is that it eliminates the model of the family

Second, population will appear above all as the final end of government What can
the end of government be? Certainly not just to govern, but to improve the
condition of the population, to increase its wealth, its longevity, and its health
And the instruments that government will use to obtain these ends are, in a way,
immanent to the field of population, it will be by acting directly on the
population itself through campaigns, or, indirectly, by, for example, techniques
that, without people being aware of it, stimulate the birth rate, or direct the
flows of population to this or that region or activity Population, then, appears as
the end and instrument of government rather than as the sovereign’s strength it is

We know the fascination that the love or horror of the state exercises today, we
know our attachment to the birth of the state, to its history, advance, power, and
abuses I think this overvaluation of the problem of state is basically found in two
forms An immediate, affective, and tragic form is the lyricism of the cold monster1
confronting us But there is a second way of overvaluing the problem of the state
that is paradoxical because apparently reductive This analysis consists in reducing
the state to a number of functions like, for example, the development of the
productive forces and the reproduction of the relations of production But this
reductive view of the relative importance of the state in comparison with something
else nonetheless makes the state absolutely essential as the target to be attacked
and, as you well know, as the privileged position to be occupied But the state,
doubtless no more today than in the past, does not have this unity, individuality,
and rigorous functionality, nor, I would go so far as to say, this importance After
all, maybe the state is only a composite reality and a mythicized abstraction whose
importance is much less than we think Maybe What is important for our modernity,
that is to say for our present, is not then the state’s takeover (étatisation) of
society, so much as what I would call the “governmentalization" of the state

And maybe, in a completely general, rough, and therefore inexact way, we could
reconstruct the major forms, the major economies of power in the following way
first, the state of justice, born in a feudal type of territoriality and broadly
corresponding to a society of customary and written law, with a whole interplay of
commitments and litigations, second, the administrative state that corresponds to a
society of regulations and disciplines, and finally, a state of government that is
no longer essentially defined by its territoriality, by the surface occupied, but
by a mass the mass of the population, with its volume, its density, and, for sure,
the territory it covers, but which is, in a way, only one of its components This
state of government, which essentially bears on the population and calls upon and
employs economic knowledge as an instrument, would correspond to a society
controlled by apparatuses of security

The second shift, the second transfer to the outside, concerns the function Take
the case of the prison, for example We could of course analyze the prison on the
basis of the functions we expect it to perform, those defined as its ideal
functions, and of the optimal way of exercising them (which is, broadly speaking,
what Bentham did in his Panopticon7) Starting from there, we could see what real
functions were assured by the prison and establish an historical balance sheet of
functional pluses and minuses, or anyway of what was intended and what was actually
achieved But, here again, studying the prison from the angle of the disciplines
involved short-circuiting, or rather moving outside in relation to the functional
point view, and putting the prison back in a general economy of power As a result,
we noticed that the real history of the prison is undoubtedly not governed by the
successes and failures of its functionality, but is in fact inserted within
strategies and tactics that find support even in these functional defects
themselves So, the second principle is to substitute the external point of view of
strategies and tactics for the internal point of view of the function

Taking the point of view of the disciplines involved refusing to give oneself a

seeking to measure institutions, practices, and knowledges in terms of the criteria

which a field of truth with objects of knowledge was constituted through these

word “to govern (gouverner)” actually covers a considerable number of different


meanings. First, we find the purely material, physical, and spatial meaning, of to
direct, move forward, or even to move forward oneself on a track, a road. “To
govern” is to follow a path, or put on a path. In Froissart, for example, you find
a text like this: “A [ ... ] path so narrow that [ ... ] two men ne s'y powraien
gpuvirner” that is to say, could not go forward walking abreast. It also has the
material but much wider meaning of supporting by providing means of subsistence.

There are meanings of a moral kind "To govern” may mean "to conduct someone,”
either in the specifically spiritual sense of the government of souls - a
completely classical sense that will endure and subsist for a very long time - or,
in a way that deviates a bit from this, "to govern” may mean "to impose a regimen,”
on a patient for example the doctor governs the patient, or the patient, who
imposes treatment on himself, governs himself Thus, a text says "A patient who,
after having left the Hôtel-Dieu, passed away as a result of his bad government ”*
He had followed a bad regimen "To govern,” or "government,” may refer to conduct in
the specifically moral sense of the term a daughter who was of "bad government,”1

never governs a state, a territory, or a political structure Those whom one governs
are people, individuals, or groups When one speaks of a town that governs itself
(se gouverne), and which is governed on the basis of its drapery, it means that
people get their means of subsistence, their food, their resources, and their

Now the idea of governing people is certainly not a Greek idea, and nor do I think
it is a Roman idea In Greek literature at least, there is the fairly frequent
metaphor of the radder, the helmsman, the pilot, and the person who steers the
ship, to designate the activity of the person who is the head of the city-state and
who has a number of duties and responsibilities with regard to the city Take, for
example, Oedpus the Ktng > In Oedpus the Ktng, frequently, or at several points,
there is the metaphor of the king who is responsible for the city-state and must
conduct it as a good pilot properly governs his ship, avoiding reefs and guiding it
to port I But in these metaphors, which identify the king as a helmsman and the
city as a ship, we should note that what is governed, what the metaphor designates
as the object of government, is the city-state itself which is like a ship
threatened by reefs, a ship caught in the storm, a ship that has to steer a course
avoiding pirates and enemies, and a ship that must be lead to safe harbor
Individuals are not the object of government, the action of government is not
brought to bear on individuals The captain or pilot of the ship does not govern the
sailors, he governs the ship In the same way, the king governs the city-state, but
not the men of the city The object or target of government is the city-state in its
substantial reality, its unity, and its possible survival or disappearance Men are
only governed indirectly, insofar as they have boarded the ship

example, the Pharaoh receives the insignia of the shepherd The shepherd’s crook is
placed in his hands and he is declared the shepherd of men The title of shepherd

I think there is something in this that is fundamental, and probably specific, to


the Mediterranean East, and which is very different from what is found in the
Greeks You never find the Greeks having the idea that the gods lead men like a
pastor, a shepherd, leads his flock Whatever the intimacy between the Greek gods
and their city, and it is not necessarily very great, it is never that kind of
relationship The Greek god founds the city, he or she indicates its site, helps in
the construction of walls, guarantees its soundness, gives his or her name to the
town, and issues oracles through which he or she gives advice The god is consulted,
he or she protects and intervenes, he or she is sometimes angry, and then makes
peace, but the Greek god never leads the men of the city like a shepherd leads his
sheep

The shepherd’s power is not exercised over a territory but, by definition, over a
flock, and more exactly, over the flock in its movement from one place to another
The shepherd’s power is essentially exercised over a multiplicity in movement The
Greek god is a territorial god, a god entra muros, with his privileged place, his
town or temple The Hebrew God, on the other hand, is the God moving from place to
place, the God who wanders The presence of the Hebrew God is never more intense and
visible than when his people are on the move, and when, in his people’s wanderings,
in the movement that takes them from the town, the prairies, and pastures, he goes
ahead and shows his people the direction they must follow The Greek god, rather,
appears on the walls to defend his town The Hebrew God appears precisely when one
is leaving the town, when one is leaving the city walls behind and taking the path
across the prairies "O God, when you set out at the head of your people,” say the
Psalms * In

the salvation that must be assured to the flock has a very precise meaning in this
theme of pastoral power Salvation is first of all essentially subsistence The means
of subsistence provided, the food assured, is good pasture The shepherd is someone
who feeds and who feeds directly, or at any rate, he is someone who feeds the flock
first by leading it to good pastures, and then by making sure that the animals eat
and are properly fed Pastoral power is a power of care It looks after the flock, it
looks after the individuals of the flock, it sees to it that the sheep do not
suffer, it goes in search of those that have strayed of course, and it treats those
that are injured

A rabbinic commentary, which is a bit late but which absolutely reflects this,
explains how and why Moses was chosen by God to lead the flock of Israel It was
because when Moses was a shepherd in Egypt he knew how to graze his sheep and knew,
for example, that when he came to pasture he had to send the youngest sheep first
to eat the most tender grass, then those a little older, and then the eldest and
most robust who could eat the toughest grass In this way each category of sheep had
the grass it needed and enough to eat Moses presided over this just, calculated,
and reflected distribution of food, and Yahweh, seeing this, said to him "Since you
know how to pity the sheep, you will have pity for my people, and I will entrust
them to you”1

Finally, the last feature, which confirms some of things I have been saying, is the
idea that pastoral power is an individualizing power That is to say, it is true
that the shepherd directs the whole flock, but he can only really direct it insofar
as not a single sheep escapes him The shepherd counts the sheep, he counts them in
the morning when he leads them to pasture, and he counts them in the evening to see
that they are all there, and he looks after each of them individually He does
everything for the totality of his flock, but he does everything also for each
sheep of the flock

senguiatim,1 which will be the great problem both of the techniques of power in
Christian pastorship, and of the, let’s say, modern techniques of power deployed in
the technologies of population I have spoken about Omnes et s/ngilatm And then, in
an even more intense manner, the second form taken by the paradox of the shepherd
is the problem of the sacrifice of the shepherd for his flock, the sacrifice of
himself for the whole of his flock, and the sacrifice of the whole of his flock for
each of the sheep What I mean is that, in this Hebrew theme of the flock, the
shepherd owes everything to his flock to the extent of agreeing to sacrifice
himself for its salvation 1 But, on the other hand, since he must save each of the
sheep, will he not find himself in a situation in which he has to neglect the whole
of the flock in order to save a single sheep?

The Christian Church coagulated all these themes of pastoral power into precise
mechanisms and definite institutions, it organized a pastoral power that was both
specific and autonomous, it implanted its apparatuses within the Roman Empire, and
at the heart of the Empire it organized a type of power that I think was unknown to
any other civilization This really is the paradox and the subject on which I would
like to focus in the next lectures Of all civilizations, the Christian West has
undoubtedly been, at the same time, the most creative, the most conquering the most
arrogant, and doubtless the most bloody At any rate, it has certainly been one of
the civilizations that has deployed the greatest violence But, at the same time,
and this is the paradox I would like to stress, over millennia Western man has
learned to see himself as a sheep in a flock, something that assuredly no Greek
would have been prepared to accept Over millennia he has learned to ask for his
salvation from a shepherd ('pasteur) who sacrifices himself for him The strangest
form of power, the form of power that is most typical of the West, and that will
also have the greatest and most durable fortune, was not born in the steppe or in
the towns This form of power so typical of the West, and unique, I think, in the
entire history of civilizations, was born, or at least took its model from the
fold, from politics seen as a matter of the sheepfold

It is rare, with the one obvious, major and crucial exception of Plato. There you
have a whole series of texts in which the good magistrate, the ideal magistrate is
seen as the shepherd (berger). To be a good shepherd (pasteur) is to be not only
the good magistrate, but quite simply the true, ideal magistrate. You find this in
Critias,- The Republic} The Laws,§ and The Statesman.[53] I think The Statesman
should be examined separately. Let us leave it aside for a moment and take up the
other texts in which Plato employs the metaphor of the shepherd- magistrate. What
do we see? I think in these other texts, apart from The Statesman that is, the
metaphor of the shepherd is employed in

who can be in charge, and who in fact is in charge of this? It is at this point
that the principle of the singleness, the uniqueness of the shepherd, is
immediately challenged, and we see the birth of what Plato calls the rivals of the
king, the rivals of the king in shepherding. If the king is in fact defined as
shepherd (pasteur), why not say that the farmer who feeds men, or the baker who
makes bread and provides them with food, is just as much the shepherd of humanity
as the shepherd who leads the flock of sheep to grass or gets them to drink? The
farmer and the baker are rivals of the king as shepherds of humanity. But the
doctor who takes care of those who are sick is equally a shepherd (berger), he
performs the function of shepherd (pâtre); the gymnastics master and the teacher,
who watch over the good education and health of children, over the vigor of their
bodies and their abilities, are also equally shepherds in relation to the human
flock. All may lay claim to being shepherds (pasteurs) and are therefore rivals of
the politician.[58]

Politics, like the art of the weaver, can only develop on the basis of and with the
help of certain auxiliary or preparatory actions. For the weaver to carry out his
task, the wool must have been sheared, the yarn must have been twisted, and the
carder must have done his work. Similarly, a whole series of auxiliary arts are
required to help the politician. Making war, giving good judgments in tribunals, as
well as persuading assemblies with the art of rhetoric, are not exactly politics
but the conditions of its practice.[61]

It will be to join together, as the weaver joins the warp and the weft. The
politician will bind the elements together, the good elements formed by education;
he will bind together the virtues in their different forms, which are distinct from
and sometimes opposed to each other; he will weave and bind together different
contrasting temperaments, such as, for example, spirited and moderate men; and he
will weave them together thanks to the shuttle of a shared common opinion. So the
royal art is not at all that of the shepherd, but the art of the weaver, which is
an art that consists in bringing together these lives “in a community [I am
quoting; M.F.] that rests on concord and friendship.”

We should no doubt say, if not with more precision, at least a bit more accurately,
that the pastorate begins with a process that is absolutely unique in history and
no other example of which is found in the history of any other civilization: the
process by which a religion, a religious community, constitutes itself as a Church,
that is to say, as an institution that claims to govern men in their daily life on
the grounds of leading them to eternal life in the other world, and to do this not
only on the scale of a definite group, of a city or a state, but of the whole of
humanity.

“regimen of souls,” the “government of souls,” is the ars artium. Now this phrase
should not only be understood as a fundamental principle, but also in its polemical
force, since what was the ars artium, the techne technon, the episteme epistemon,
before Gregory Nazianzen? It was philosophy. That is to say, well before the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, what took over from philosophy in the
Christian West was not another philosophy, and it was not even theology; it was the
pastorate. This was the art by which some people were taught the government of
others, and others were taught to let themselves be governed by certain people. It
was this game of the government of some by others, of everyday government, of
pastoral government, that was reflected for fifteen centuries as the science par
excellence, the art of all arts, the knowledge (savoir) of all knowledges
(savoirs).

Finally, there remains the problem, or rather, when Christianity had established
the organization and precise territoriality of parishes during the Middle Ages,tt
the problem arises of whether parish priests can be seen as pastors. You know that
this was one of the problems that, if they did not exactly give rise to the
Reformation, at least provoked a series of crises, challenges, and debates that
finally led to the Reformation. The parishes had no sooner been set up than the
problem arose of whether parish priests were pastors. Yes, said Wyclif.** A whole
series of protestant churches will say yes, each in their way. The Jansenists of
the seventeenth and eighteenth century will also say yes.[71] To which the Catholic
Church will obstinately reply: No, parish priests are not pastors.- Still in 1788*
Marius Lupus published De parochiis, which fundamentally challenged the thesis
that, in a pre- and post-council atmosphere, would broadly be accepted, that parish
priests are pastors.§

Finally, the absolutely fundamental and essential feature of this overall pastoral
power is that throughout Christianity it remained distinct from political power.
This does not mean that religious power only took on the task of caring for
individual’s souls. On the contrary, pastoral power - and this is one of its
fundamental features, and one of its paradoxes, to which I will come back next
week[72] - is only concerned with individual souls insofar as this direction
(conduite) of souls also involves a permanent intervention in everyday conduct
(conduite), in the management of lives, as well as in goods, wealth, and things. It
concerns not only the individual, but [also] the community, and a text of Saint
John Chrysostom says that the bishop must watch over everything; the bishop must
have a thousand eyes since he must be concerned not just with individuals, but with
the whole town and ultimately - the text is found De sacerdotio - [with] the orbis
terrarum, [with the] whole world.t It is, then, a form of power that really is a
terrestrial power even though it is directed towards the world beyond.

in the Western Church it has always remained a power that is completely distinct
from [political]* power. Doubtless we should hear this separation resonating in
Valentinian’s famous apostrophe to Saint Ambrose when he sent the latter to govern
Milan. He sent him to govern Milan, “not as a magistrate, but as a pastor.”§ I
think the formula will remain as a sort of principle or fundamental law throughout
the history of Christianity.

The God of the Hebrews is indeed a pastor-God, but there were no pastors within the
political and social regime of the Hebrews So, the pastorate in Christianity gave
rise to a dense, complicated, and closely woven institutional network that claimed
to be, and was in fact, coextensive with the entire Church, and so with
Christianity, with the entire Christian community Hence the institutionalization of
the pastorate is a much more complicated theme

and it is this that I would like to stress, is that in Christianity the pastorate
gave rise to an art of conducting, directing leading, guiding taking in hand, and
manipulating men, an art of monitoring them and urging them on step by step, an art
with the function of taking charge of men collectively and individually throughout
their life and at every moment of their existence

I do not think that this pastorate, this pastoral power, can be assimilated to or
confused with the methods used to subject men to a law or to a sovereign Nor can it
be assimilated to the methods used to train children, adolescents, and young people
It cannot be assimilated to the formulae employed to convince, persuade, and lead
men more or less in spite of themselves In short, the pastorate does not coincide
with politics, pedagogy, or rhetoric It is something entirely different It is an
art of "governing men,”" and I think this is where we should look for the origin,
the point of formation, of crystallization, the embryonic point of the
governmentality whose entry into politics, at the end of the sixteenth and in the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, marks the threshold of the modern state

but he will also have to consider everything a sheep has done, every merit or
fault, as his own act When anything good happens to a sheep, the pastor will have
to experience it as his own good The pastor will also have to consider an evil that
happens to a sheep, or which occurs through or because of a sheep, as an evil that

The third principle is that of sacrificial reversal, which is once again completely
specific to the Christian pastorate In fact, if it is true that the pastor is lost
along with his sheep - according to the general form of that kind of global
solidarity I have been talking about - he must also lose himself for his sheep, and
in their place That is to say, the pastor must be prepared to die to save his sheep

He must agree to take the sins of the sheep on his shoulders so that they do not
have to pay, and so that he is the one who pays So, if it comes to it, the pastor
must expose himself to temptation, taking upon himself everything the sheep could
shed if, through this kind of transfer, it freed itself both from temptation and
the risk it had of spiritual death This theme, which appears decidedly theoretical
and moral, assumed concrete actuality with the problem of spiritual direction,
which I will talk about later What, in some if not all its aspects, did spiritual
direction involve? The question was this Will not the person who directs and
explores the recesses of someone else’s conscience, the person to whom one confides
one’s sins and the temptations to which one has been exposed, will not this person
who is called upon to see, observe, and discover evil, be exposed to temptation?
Will not the evil of which he relieves the conscience of the person he directs, by
the very act of relieving it, expose [him] to temptation? Will not learning of such
horrible sins, seeing such beautiful sinners, precisely expose him to the risk of
the death of his own soul at the moment he saves the soul of this

The fourth principle, the fourth mechanism that we find in the definition of the
Christian pastor is what could be called, again in a completely schematic and
arbitrary way, the principle of alternate correspondence If in fact it is true that
the sheep’s merit constitutes the shepherd’s merit, then can we not also say that
the shepherd’s merit would not amount to much if all the sheep were always
perfectly worthy of merit? Is not the shepherd’s merit due, at least in part, to
the sheep being recalcitrant, exposed to danger, and always about to fall? And the
shepherd’s merit, which earns his salvation, will be precisely that he has
constantly struggled against these dangers, brought back the stray sheep, and that
he has had to struggle against his own flock Thus, Saint Benedict says "If his
subordinates are unruly, then the pastor will be absolved”" Conversely, we can also
say, equally paradoxically, that the pastor’s weaknesses may contribute to the
salvation of the flock How can the pastor’s frailties contribute to the flock’s
salvation? Certainly, the pastor should be perfect, as far as possible The pastor’s
example is fundamental, it is essential for the virtue, merit, and salvation of the
flock As Saint Gregory says in The Book of Pastoral Rule, II [2]1 "Should not the
hand that would clean the dirt from others be proper and clean?”1 So, the pastor
must be proper and clean But if the pastor has no weaknesses, if he is too proper
or too clean, will he not take something like pride in this perfection, and, again
from Saint Gregory’s Liber pastoralis, "will not the loftiness that he conceives as
due to [his own perfection] constitute a precipice from which he will fall in the
eyes of God?”§ “ It is good, then, for the pastor to have imperfections, to know
them, and not to hide them hypocritically from his faithful It is good that he
repents of them explicitly and is humbled by them, so as to maintain himself in a
self-abasement that will edify the faithful, just as carefully hiding his own
frailties would produce a scandal11 Consequently, just as on one side the pastor’s
merit and salvation are due to the weaknesses of his sheep, so too the pastor’s
faults and weaknesses contribute to the edification of his sheep and are part of
the movement, the process of guiding them towards salvation

a whole detailed economy of merits and faults between which, in the end, God
decides For here too there is a fundamental element In the end, neither the
pastor’s nor his sheep’s certain and definitive salvation is guaranteed by this
economy of merits and faults that the pastor constantly has to manage In the end,

Consider now the problem of the law I think we could carry out a somewhat similar
analysis and show that the pastor is not fundamentally a man of the law, or at any
rate, it is in no way typical and specific about the pastor that he speaks the law

The Christian pastorate has, I think, organized something completely different that
seems to me to be foreign to Greek practice, and this is what we could call the
insistence on "pure obedience,”" that is to say, on obedience as a unitary, highly
valued type of conduct in which the essence of its raison d’etre is in itself

The Poor In each and every historical period a social subject that is ever-present
and everywhere the same is identified, often negatively but nonetheless urgently,
around a common living form. This form is not that of the powerful and the rich:
they are merely partial and localized figures, quantitate signatae. The only non-
localizable ‘‘common name’’ of pure difference in all eras is that of the poor. The
poor is destitute, excluded, repressed, exploited—and yet living! It is the common
denominator of life, the foundation of the multitude. It is strange, but also
illuminating, that postmodernist authors seldom adopt this figure in their
theorizing. It is strange because the poor is in a certain respect an eternal
postmodern figure: the figure of a transversal, omnipresent, different, mobile
subject; the testament to the irrepressible aleatory character of existence.

Only the poor lives radically the actual and present being, in destitution and

the multitude of the poor does not point to any transcendence. On the contrary,
here and only here in this world, in the existence ofthe poor, is the field

Vogelfrei, ‘‘birdfree,’’ is the term Marx used to describe theproletar- iat, which
at the beginning of modernity in the processes of primitive accumulation was freed
twice over: in the first place, it was freed from being the property of the master
(that is, freed from servitude); and in the second place, it was “freed’’from the
means of production, separated from the soil, with nothing to sell but its own
labor power. In this sense, the proletariat was forced to become the pure
possibility of wealth. The dominant stream of the Marxist tradition, however, has
always hated the poor, precisely for their being ‘‘free as birds,’’for being immune
to the discipline of the factory and the discipline necessary for the construction
of socialism. Consider how, when in the early 1950s Vittorio De Sica and Cesare
Zavattini set the poor to fly away on broomsticks at the end of their beautiful
film Miracle in Milan, they were so violently denounced for utopianism by the
spokesmen of socialist realism. The Vogelfrei is an angel or an intractable demon.

The story goes that at the root of the postmodernist sensibility and the
construction of the concept of postmodernism are those French socialist
philosophers who in their youth celebrated factory discipline and the shining
horizons of real socialism, but who became repentant after the crisis of 1968 and
gave up, proclaiming the futility of the pretense of communism to reappropriate
social wealth. Today these same philosophers cynically deconstruct, banalize, and
laugh at every social struggle that contests the universal triumph of exchange
value. The media and the culture of the media tell us that those philosophers are
the ones who recognized this new era of the world, but that is not true. The
discovery of postmodernity consisted in the reproposition of the poor at the center
of the political and productive terrain. What was really prophetic was the poor,
bird-free laugh of Charlie Chaplin when, free from any utopian illusions and above
all from any discipline of liberation, he interpreted the ‘‘modern times’’ of
poverty, but at the same time linked the name of the poor to that of life, a
liberated life and a liberated productivity.

‘‘returning to origins’’ and at the same time developing new languages and new
social forms that mediate between the one and the multiple. Against the tired
transcendentalism of modern sovereignty, presented either in Hobbesian or in Rous-
seauian form, the American constituents thought that only the republic can give
order to democracy, or really that the order of the multitude must be born not from
a transfer of the title of power and right, but from an arrangement internal to the
multitude, from a democratic interaction of powers linked together in networks. The
new sovereignty can arise, in other words, only from the constitutional formation
of limits and equilibria, checks and balances, which both constitutes a central
power and maintains power in the hands of the multitude. There is no longer any
necessity or any room here for the transcendence of power.

What takes shape here is an extraordinarily secular and immanentist idea, despite
the profound religiousness that runs throughout the texts of the Founding Fathers.
It is an idea that rediscovers the revolutionary humanism of the Renaissance and
perfects it as a political and constitutional science. Power can be constituted by
a whole series of powers that regulate themselves and arrange themselves in
networks. Sovereignty can be exercised within a vast horizon of activities that
subdivide it without negating its unity and that subordinate it continually to the
creative movement of the multitude.

The second Machiavellian principle at work here is that the social base of this

Polybius’ model of imperial Rome grounded more solidly the republican process of
the mediation of social powers and brought it to a conclusion in a synthesis of
diverse forms of government. Polybius conceived the perfect form of power as
structured by a mixed constitution that combines monarchic power, aristocratic
power, and democratic power.5 The new political scientists in the United States
organized these three powers as the three branches of the republican constitution.
Any disequilibrium among these powers, and this is the second sign of Polybius’
influence, is a symptom of corruption. The Machiavellian Constitution of the United
States is a structure poised against corruption—the corruption of both factions and
individuals, of groups and the state. The Constitution was designed to resist any
cyclical decline into corruption by activating the entire multitude and organizing
its constituent capacity in networks of organized counterpowers, in flows of
diverse and equalized functions, and in a process of dynamic and expansive self-
regulation.

Hannah Arendt, by contrast, unreservedly celebrated American democracy as the site


of the invention of modern politics itself. The central idea of the American
Revolution, she claimed, is the establishment of freedom, or really the foundation
of a political body that guarantees the space where freedom can operate.7 Arendt
puts the accent on the establishment of this democracy in society, that is, the
fixity of its foundation and the stability of its functioning. The revolution
succeeds in her estimation to the extent that it puts an end to the dynamic of
constituent powers and establishes a stable constituted power.

Protestantism all developed this idea of productivity. In line with the Protestant
ethic, one might say that only the productive power of the multitude demonstrates
the existence of God and the presence of divinity on earth.8 Power is not something
that lords over us but something that we make. The American Declaration of
Independence celebrates this new idea of power in the clearest terms. The
emancipation of humanity from every transcendent power is grounded on the
multitude’s power to construct its own political institutions and constitute
society.

This is the second characteristic of the U.S. notion of sovereignty. In the process
of the constitution of sovereignty on the plane of immanence, there also arises an
experience of finitude that results from the conflictive and plural nature of the
multitude itself. The new principle of sovereignty seems to produce its own
internal limit. To prevent these obstacles from disrupting order and completely
emptying out the project, sovereign power must rely on the exercise of control. In
other words, after the first moment of affirmation comes a dialectical negation of
the constituent power of the multitude that preserves the teleology of the project
of sovereignty.

That outcome is a constant threat, but after having recognized these internal
limits, the new U.S. concept of sovereignty opens with extraordinary force toward
the outside, almost as if it wanted to banish the idea of control and the moment of
reflection from its own Constitution. The third characteristic of this notion of
sovereignty is its tendency toward an open, expansive project operating on an
unbounded terrain. Although the text of the U.S. Constitution is extremely
attentive to the self-reflective moment, the life and exercise of the Constitution
are instead, throughout their jurisprudential and political history, decidedly open
to expansive movements, to the renewed declaration of the democratic foundation of
power. The principle of expansion continually struggles against the forces of
limitation and control.9

It is striking how strongly this American experiment resembles the ancient


constitutional experience, and specifically the political theory inspired by
imperial Rome! In that tradition the conflict between limit and expansion was
always resolved in favor of expansion. Machiavelli defined as expansive those
republics whose democratic foundations led to both the continuous production
ofconflicts and the appropriation of new territories. Polybius conceived
expansiveness as the reward for the perfect synthesis of the three forms of
government, because the eminent form of such a power encourages the democratic
pressure of the multitude to surpass every limit and every control. Without
expansion the republic constantly risks being absorbed into the cycle of
corruption.10

network power must be distinguished from other, purely expansionist and imperialist
forms of expansion. The fundamental difference is that the expansiveness of the
immanent concept of sovereignty is inclusive, not exclusive. In other words, when
it expands, this new sovereignty does not annex or destroy the other powers it
faces but on the contrary opens itself to them, including them in the network. What
opens is the basis ofconsensus, and thus, through the constitutive network of
powers and counterpowers, the entire sovereign body is continually reformed.
Precisely because of this expansive tendency, the new concept of sovereignty is
profoundly reformist.11

It is true that the League of Nations, the crowning glory of the Wilsonian project
for European and world peace, never got past the veto power of Congress; but his
concept of world order based on the extension of the U.S. constitutional project,
the idea of peace as product of a new world network of powers, was a powerful and
long-lasting proposal.22 This proposal corresponded to the original logic of the
U.S. Constitution and its idea of expansive Empire. European modernists could not
help mocking this proposal of a postmodern Empire: the chronicles are full of the
ironies and insults of Georges Clemenceau and Lloyd George, along with the
fascists, who all declared that the refusal of the Wilsonian project was a central
element of their projects of dictatorship and war. Yet poor maligned Wilson appears
today in a rather different light: a utopian, yes, but lucid in his foresight of
the horrible future that awaited the Europe of nations in the coming years; the
inventor of a world government of peace, which was certainly unrealizable, but the
vision proved nonetheless an efficient promoter of the passage to Empire. This is
all true even if Wilson did not recognize it. Here in fact we begin to touch
concretely the difference between imperialism and Empire, and we can see in those
Wilsonian utopias the intelligence and foresight of a great idiot.

Nada cambió para los Manso. A veces eran inspeccionados, pero tenían un tesoro
escondido con el cual pagar los sobornos al oficial. Este siempre les visitaba.
Aunque cambiara de individuo, el oficial siempre hallaba la casa. Estaba señalizada
en su frontis con las iniciales del prohombre Manso, la mismas iniciales con que
hacía marcar sus novillos. Hoy los grafiteros marcan paredes ajenas, señal de que
el mal gusto ha retrocedido.

una cuestión por todos llamada “la cuestión social” comenzaba a cuestionar algunos
asuntos mal vistos desde el tiempo de los descubrimientos del conde de Saint-Simon.
En esa época se hablaba todo el día de los pobres, bien para alabarlos, bien para
ningunearlos. Y cada pobre conocía a uno aún más pobre, al punto que cada uno se
sentía más rico que algún otro; por lo que hablar de los pobres se volvió hablar de
los otros, o sea, conversar animadamente.

multitud tornada mayoría: Alessandri, primer inventor del parlamentarismo.
Alessandri iba por la Alameda galopando sobre un perro monstruoso. Su mujer lo
esperaba en casa para abofetearlo y amarlo. Fue un presidente que entretuvo a
Chile. Después de él todo ha sido aburrimiento, brutalidad indecorosa y atmósfera
democratacristiana. Lo acompañaron las juntas de militares asiduas al socialismo

Los Manso reaccionaron persiguiendo sigilosamente al interior de su propio


territorio a estos afuerinos. Y los afuerinos volvían otra vez, instigaban; les
enseñaron a sus compadres del campo que el arte de la conversación excedía el
simple pelambre. Esta novedosa forma de conversación se apropió del tiempo, y,
posteriormente, se apropió del tiempo de trabajo y, entonces, la conversación se
hacía a gritos durante la cosecha y a gritos y en movimiento y corriendo armados de
chuzos, palas, azadones y otros instrumentos de producción, y hasta con la casa
patronal cercada por aquellos amigos de la niñez ahora transformados en amigos del
enemigo. Porque, para los Manso, la gente que los había cuidado, trabajado para

convertirse en enemigos suyos. La enemistad era un dios urbano.

Luisa agradecía esta obstinada afición a la alegría, comportándose cual una

despreciaba en sus compañeros el que estos sacaran provecho de las licencias que
Marisol les otorgaba. Se lo hizo saber a tía Lorena. –Verá. Todo está claro desde

El kindergarten era lo que podría llamarse una guardería para mayores de cuatro
años. Prestaba servicios a mujeres emprendedoras, a menudo madres solteras con
algún oficio, que requerían más que educación para sus hijos, alguien que los
vigilase. La jornada comenzaba quince minutos antes de la hora en que las madres
debían estar en sus trabajos, y se terminaba a la hora en que las madres los
abandonaban. Los niños permanecían todo el día allí jugando y durmiendo. Las tres
parvularias oficiaban de verdaderas esclavas. Al final del día, sus delantales
estaban manchados de barro, yogurt, y por lo general, sangre de narices. A la
salida, Marisol despedía a los chicos al borde de las lágrimas.

Hay una verdad pequeña que reside en la niñez, que a diferencia de la verdad
llamativa es una conciencia amorosa, torpe y viva. Todo niño es un mundo, no una
mera posibilidad de la adultez. Estas conciencias que muchas veces la gente ve
pasar, en su trayecto, a propósito de un obstáculo más corporal que humano, viven
entre el sueño y la vigilia como una ballena cruza el límite humano que separa dos
océanos. Cualquier movimiento en su entorno les perturba y vuelve curiosas. Es una
existencia más concienzuda de lo que está cerca del suelo, así como persiste el
fantasma de un río que estuvo allí alguna vez. De estos templos limpios –pues el
mal al interior de ellos vive también en la forma de un niño– hay entre nosotros
sacerdotisas. El hombre adulto está ciego a ese volumen que ocupa la humanidad. Por
eso los hombres y los niños son formas de lo mismo y se repelen, y el niño llega a
ser un hombre verdadero porque una sacerdotisa ha visto en esa luz, un fuego.
Marisol pertenecía a esta, no casta, sino agrupación de seres que los hombres
mayores miran con ternura, temor y descuido a causa de su inteligencia en
apariencia limitada. Creen que son niños encerrados en cuerpos de mujeres, por eso
no saben nada sobre niños y menos aún sobre mujeres.

Esta respuesta ofendió y agradó a Lorena Carrasco lo bastante para invitar a


Marisol a escuchar un disco de tangos cantados por Amelita Baltar, y, con
posterioridad, esa misma noche, a enseñarle a bailarlos. Marisol nunca lo había
intentado. Se dirá que un tango no puede ser lícitamente bailado por dos mujeres,
pero la altura huesuda de Lorena Carrasco la trasmutó en varón. Fue una lección de
tango muy desafortunada que rápido se dio por vencida. Marisol sabía al parecer
bailar con los niños, enseñarles coreografías, pero le era imposible hacerlo con un
hombre, porque en definitiva era ella, Marisol, quien efectuaba allí, en la
posición de las manos y el dejarse llevar a duras penas, el papel de la mujer.
Luisa quiso bailar. No la admitieron en el grupo. Se contentó observándolas tirada
en el sofá, bajo la imagen de la Virgen que las miraba de reojo, y cuyo cuadro
colgado de la pared perdía valor junto al único objeto iconográfico allí
significativo: una reproducción nada competente de El Aya, de Jean-Baptiste Simeón
Chardin, firmada por un tal Mateuzzi. Había sido el tesoro familiar del padre de
Lorena.

mismo pensamiento: «¿Quién habrá sido el imbécil? Hay que buscarlo y quebrarle el
resto de los huesos.» Así pensaban estos niños, que no eran ningunas santas
palomas.

piscina láctea. A continuación, los escolares regresaban con los jarros vacíos para
devolverlos a las cocineras, llamadas en la nómina del ministerio de educación:
“manipuladoras de alimentos”. Al ver ese desperdicio, esa libación de la infantil
inconsciencia al dios de la nada, concurrido por los niños para vomitar sin
previamente haber tragado; viendo aquel espectáculo, esa laguna blanca mojando el
terreno contiguo (había musgos y vegetación podrida), Luisa Manso no pudo evitar
soltar una lagrima. «Será que llora porque quería tomársela ella», se dijeron los
niños, mientras se lanzaban a jugar a la pelota.

¿De dónde vino toda esa agua? Era como si el agua hubiese venido de muy lejos a
buscar algo sobre la tierra. Luisa Manso sabía que los españoles habían llegado por
el norte. No entendía qué podía haber más allá en esa carretera, no comprendía cómo
gente había viajado para fundar ciudades tan lejanas, por qué alguien iba siempre
más allá, insistía en alejarse como hipnotizado por un centro ígneo de la Tierra
sobre la mismísima Tierra. Se lo preguntó a su tía: –¿Por qué siempre hay una
ciudad más al sur? –Primero se hacían ciudades para la guerra, pero después esas
ciudades continuaron porque ya estaban allí, y vinieron otras porque había muchos
campos que a través de Chile se entrelazaban. Lorena se dormía.

Luisa Manso montó sin ningún inconveniente. Una vez arriba del caballo, viendo el
mundo desde lo alto, experimentó un repentino vértigo que precedió a la sensación
de estar manejando una vida demasiado poderosa, una bestia apacible entre sus
piernas. El caballo dio un corto paso que desde abajo pareció casi un temblor del
pelaje, pero en el estómago de Luisa Manso la idea de que caería de bruces,
resbalando sobre el cuello, le dominó el resto del cuerpo. Porque, al mismo tiempo,
la cabeza descendía en busca de pasto y con ello desaparecía del horizonte de su
jinete.

Ese profesor había llegado a trabajar en aquella escuela rural por motivos
estrictamente vocacionales. No era ningún rechazado urbano; más bien era un poeta –
lo que según la tradición maldita lo ponía por debajo y por encima del campo y de
la ciudad–, un poeta de aquellos que cundieron con posterioridad a la muerte de
Neruda y se extraviaron en la lucha contra un mal indigno de sus desvelos. Otro
poeta que desapareció por culpa de nadie. Y su visión cabal y comedida de la
creación poética requería de un entorno tanto rudo como amable.

Junto a Ramón se quedó con la cabeza gacha mientras el profesor comenzaba la clase
a la que, por primera vez en mucho tiempo, no lograba prestar atención. Había una
turbación, un tornado que solo quien lo tenía a su lado notaba. De cuando en
cuando, iba de reojo notando algunos rasgos físicos de Ramón. Presenció un perfil
que permanecía en estado contemplativo del pizarrón. Parecía que su objeto fuera
alguna cosa superior. Luego comprobó, comparándolo con el suyo propio, que en aquel
recién llegado la forma figuraba incompleta, y, sin embargo, esa carencia se la
atribuyó a sí mismo, como quien se mutila para reparar la carencia de miembros en
otro, a fin de embellecerlo. La mano de Ramón, que escribía en el cuaderno, le
permitió descubrir, si miraba algo más atrás, una muñeca tan delgada como la de una
niña. Por fin, se propuso mirarlo detenidamente y volteó hacia él. Fue al instante
descubierto. Ramón destrozó su rostro atónito fortaleciéndose con una sonrisa, y
así, como un bañista que consiente en ser espiado, su observador se salvó de
sonrojarse irreversiblemente.

derrumbó los pantalones. Estuvo silencioso, en calzoncillos sobre la cama. «Es tan
blanco que su cuerpo se extraviaría en la nieve. Se nota ahora porqué lo llamaron
el Blancanieves», pensó Clemente, tendido sobre la cama junto a él, mirándolo, o

–Escúchame Luisa Manso. Tú no eres cualquier cosa… –Eso ya lo sé –se allanó ella. –
Eres la representante de una antigua raza de mujeres hispanas, aguerridas, finas y
brutales, todas Jimenas Lozano, las que conquistaron esta tierra y la domesticaron.
Doña Inés de Suárez, la monja Alférez, doña Javiera Carrera, Ximena Tocornal, Paula
Jaraquemada. Eres como todas ellas. –O sea, todas ellas son como yo. –Sí, sí… y a
la vez, reúnes la inteligencia de muchas otras mujeres hispanas, como Santa Teresa
de Ávila, como Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, como Leonor de Aquitania, como la Eloísa
de Abelardo… –Esas dos no son muy hispanas que yo sepa –se quejó Luisa–, pero me
demuestras haber aprendido mucho por tu cuenta; no creo que todos esos nombres te
los hayan enumerado en clases. –Mi madre y mi abuela, con quienes vivo, me han
hablado siempre de ellas. Ellas también son antiguas, igual que tú. –Ah, ya
entiendo… haberlo dicho antes –dijo Luisa entre risas–, tú eres un aristócrata. ¿Y
por qué llevas ese nombre tan raro? Conrado, suena como a “condenado”.

La vejez de los adornos, gobelinos, grabados, cajitas, platería, alfombras,


pequeños estantes con libros, lo había descolorido todo, había mezclado todos los
colores hasta igualarlos, y finalmente, estos se habían permitido un mutuo
camuflaje. Después, pudo distinguirlos, cuando ya comenzaron a sobresalir los
retratos de antiguos antepasados como cuerpos de ahogados que buscan la superficie
de las aguas, exhibiéndose a los miembros vivos de la familia, y como impúdicos, a
quienes andan de visita. En aquellos retratos, Luisa reconoció fragmentos del
cuerpo de Conrado víctimas de diversas protuberancias (pómulos prominentes y ojeras
que en rostro de él se habían recatado), y, por primera vez, asumió la proporción
corporal de su anfitrión como una verdadera deformidad. También por primera vez
pudo haber querido besarlo. Ante el conjunto de todas estas impresiones, casi quiso

Se escuchó el grito de Birgit Nilsson. Y en aquel basural de reliquias, la basura


se retiró por un encantamiento; se esfumaba como en una evacuación de la materia a
fin de mostrar la materia real. Luisa vio lo que Conrado veía tras todo aquello,
pareciéndole que compartían una misma sangre, un mismo tiempo en todos los tiempos
pasados y en todos los que están por venir, y que todo allí estaba resuelto. Esa no
era Wagner, era simplemente una especie de posesión en que ambos participaban de un
espíritu común bondadoso. En torno de Luisa, los artefactos comenzaron a gritar por
dentro, como niños en un jardín de altos muros. Eran como almas que no penan porque
están visitando una tierra antigua a la que regresan casi por casualidad. Lo
estático, polvoriento y fecal comenzó a girar cual los números de una ruleta de
casino. En aquel centro de la cruz helicóptero que prescindía de elevarse al cielo,
dominantes estaban Luisa y Conrado, ambos modulando las frases del amanecer,
estáticos como partícipes de una ópera para nadie representada.

cabello sobre la nuca cual si no sólo estuviese dispuesta a besar su cabello sobre

Ella vio, al menos, que el rostro de Conrado tenía enquistadas, como el de la

–Entremos en el clóset. –¿Con esa momia? –protestó Luisa, pero un ocasional gemido
del león acabó en ella con toda resistencia. Cuando entraron los tres en el clóset,
Luisa sintió que aquél constituía un verdadero sarcófago, y la bizarría del suceso
le recordó las palabras de Lorena Carrasco: «El demonio se hace irresistible por lo
raro.» Conrado también lo sintió: –Unidos aunque dentro de un sarcófago y
acompañados de mi abuelo.

súbitamente como una ola gigante que se detiene cuando un niño indefenso frente a

aprovechaba de retener a Luisa, abrazándola. La bestia rugió como las cuerdas de

Intrigada por el significado de todos los fenómenos que intuía, en lo sucesivo,


presenciaría en casa de los Fernández González, Luisa había consultado el
Diccionario Católico que venía adjunto a una de las biblias de Lorena Carrasco,
redactado por obispos caribeños para la recta salvación de los mestizos e indígenas
alfabetizados. En la entrada "Espiritismo" encontró una definición demasiado
alentadora: "Práctica ocultista que en diversas formas viene realizándose desde
antiguo. Trátase de la comunicación con los difuntos a través de un canal
(generalmente una mujer) llamado Médium. Aunque en la mayoría de las veces es
producto de trucos cuyos orígenes pueden detectarse en el mundo puritano adicto a
los espectáculos de varieté en los Estados Unidos de Norteamérica, la Iglesia no ha
titubeado en condenar estas y muchas otras prácticas que redundan en organizaciones
laicas que ella mira con sospecha (Véase Rotary Club), y en apócrifas filosofías
presuntamente espirituales nacidas en países que primero fueron protestantes y
luego socialistas (Véase Swedemborgismo). Para ayudar a los difuntos, la Iglesia
favorece la oración por los mismos.”

Sobre la mesita, un teclado marca Casio –el falso clavecín–, tras él, una silla
extraída del conjunto frontal a la tarima. Sentado en esa silla estaba Juan
Hipólito, del todo concentrado. Llevaba anudada la misma corbata, y a lo ancho del
cabello peinado, una partidura marcada que le generaba casi una línea de calvicie.
Era un monumento carnal de sí mismo, pero exhibía ahora un aspecto algo demacrado.
Todo en él estaba cuidado con una sabiduría que trascendía su ser pequeño
provinciano. Tocaba el teclado con la cabeza excesivamente inclinada sobre sus
manos y su público cautivo conversaba bajito para interrumpir la ejecución del
falso clavecín. La gente lo admiraba, lo creían distinto al resto.

un mundo requerido de trato nuevo, especialmente elaborado para él –y dio un
ejemplo que Luisa consideró de pésimo gusto–: ¿No es superior aquel sastre que crea
la prenda precisa para la forma de un cuerpo ya creado por Dios? Cuando la gente
viste una prenda que no ha sido especialmente confeccionada para su cuerpo, cuando
la compra en una boutique, por ejemplo, se hace un gran daño, un daño

Al lunes siguiente, durante el primer recreo, Camila Riquelme sumida en lágrimas,


interceptó el paseo que daban Luisa y Colomba por el mal regado jardín. –¡Luisa
Manso, no sabes lo que ha sucedido! –¿Qué te pasa? –gritó Colomba, que acostumbraba
evitarle la humillación de preguntar a su amiga Luisa. –Juan Hipólito ayer nos ha
anunciado su muerte. Se vio a las tres acomodarse el jumper y sentarse en un
banquillo.

–Sufro de una leucemia fulminante. No admitiré el tratamiento prohibido por las

a continuación, aprovechó la oportunidad para reafirmar la interpretación bíblica–.
Así es, hermanos, está expresamente prohibido este tratamiento por requerir del
ingreso de sangre extraña al cuerpo. Luisa se hinchó de amor ante esa palabra.

hermana Fedora se desmayó. Y hasta hubo que hacerle masaje cardiaco. Todos
felicitaban a Juan Hipólito y el Anciano dijo algo tan lunático que estuve a punto
de huir: –Siento un gran orgullo de haber podido conocer en vida y bautizado en el
agua a uno de los ciento cuarenta y cuatro mil elegidos –expresó lleno de gozo–.
Hoy nuestra congregación de San Estanislao ha sido bendecida. Dios nos está
recordando ahora mismo. –¿Qué significa eso? –Colomba ya no entendía. –Parece que
Juan Hipólito es parte del grupo más selecto de los hermanos y hermanas que
acompañarán a Dios en el Cielo cuando acontezca el Paraíso terrenal.

–Mucho se anda diciendo, ignorantemente por esta ciudad provinciana, que la Biblia
es un libro ridículo por prohibir el sano ejercicio de la medicina. La Iglesia
quiere dejar en claro lo siguiente: La prohibición según la cual la ingesta de
sangre es pecaminosa, prohibición que encontramos en el libro de Levítico, en el
Antiguo Testamento, tuvo en su momento un motivo bien específico. Moisés mediante
esa normativa quería erradicar el vampirismo de entre el pueblo elegido. Esa
disposición no nos toca hoy en día, y quienes mueren por cumplirla, es porque
entienden literalmente las sagradas escrituras. Así es, las desviaciones teológicas
de la reforma protestante aun hoy son causa de la necedad de la gente, y con ello
se demuestra que las sociedades laicas no están libres de las malas versiones del
cristianismo, no están libres de la religión, y ello prueba también que la sociedad
contemporánea tiene necesidad de la prudencia milenaria de la Santa Iglesia, la
cual jamás ha pedido a sus miembros sacrificios absurdos. –Y para evitar la
apariencia de arenga, agregó–: Dios Padre, libéranos de tantas equivocaciones. La
noticia se comentaba bastante y Lorena Carrasco hizo saber a Luisa la opinión del
sacerdote. –Gracias a estas equivocaciones el cristianismo aún respira –le dijo,
cuestión que Lorena supuso otro síntoma de la rebeldía de la adolescente.

El Anciano emergió de su silencio, dijo que el matrimonio es sagrado, que no puede

apedreado, ni del San Sebastián, cruzado por un dardo, del cual ella había leído en
el libro del cardenal Wiseman, Fabiola. Por más que lo observaba atentamente,
dispuesta a aferrarse a cualquier signo de esas representaciones fabulosas, no
hallaba donde asirse. Y hasta se dio asco un poco por haberse lanzado en la

–“Santidad”, “martirio” –se apresuró a decir Juan Hipólito con un ánimo que no era

cualquier cosa. Esto que me pasa poca relación tiene con eso. Nadie en mi religión
hará una pintura con mi padecimiento, ni nadie me rezará, nadie levantará un
santuario para mí, ni seguramente me recordará, porque así debe ser, ¿sabes? No se
trata de morir y servir de intercesor entre Dios y los hombres para que los hombres
sigan creyendo en las cosas de este Mundo con la seguridad de que alguien como
ellos los comprende mejor que el mismo Dios. Se trata de algo tan simple como
cumplir con la ley de la sangre, que para una persona como yo suena absurda, pero
que es ley del Señor. Muchísima gente torpe y hasta sin mucha convicción la ha
cumplido, y esa gente no es recordada como si fueran mártires o santos ni nada por
el estilo, ¿me entiendes? Desaparecen de este Mundo, como debe ser, con la sola
esperanza de que Dios los devuelva al Paraíso, y nada más y nada menos. Eso es
todo, y si buscas aquí en esta pieza a un ángel no vas a encontrarlo jamás.

los testigos probatorios tuvieron que posicionarse, según esta costumbre, y a


continuación el oficial habló de la importancia del matrimonio en términos tan
seculares que Luisa y Juan Hipólito ni siquiera pudieron seguir el sutil mensaje de
la institución plagiada a la religión, sin evocar la imagen de otras cosas menos
importantes. Ambos dieron el sí, y estaban diciéndoles las conocidas palabras
finales, cuando de improviso, de muy atrás vino una voz a interrumpir, una voz
quebradiza e inyectada de estupor. –Señor, ¿no preguntará si alguien se opone a

Pero el carabinero que entró vestía un apolillado uniforme de húsar del ex Imperio
Austro-húngaro, indumentaria que nadie allí supo interpretar. Calzaba además botas
negras encueradas de caña muy larga. Era joven, esbelto, llevaba un cuadernillo
bajo el brazo, y miró con cierta mueca de desprecio. Su estatura lo hacía
largamente visible. Venía junto a él, una señora media corcovada portando un chal
tejido a croché sobre los hombros. A ella Luisa también la reconoció. «¿Qué hacen

–Oramos por el Mundo y no le exigimos a él que lo haga por sigo mismo. Aquí, en el
castillo interior, como dijera Santa Teresa, el Mundo se ha vuelto un recuerdo del
cual poco y nada sabemos pero seguimos en oración, y no porque sigamos vivas. El
Papa sabe que sin nosotras el Mundo ya se hubiera terminado, quedando muchas cosas
sin salvación y otras cosas a medias tintas. ¿Tú has comprendido el sentido extraño
de la oración? ¿Te has perdido en ella durante horas al cabo de las cuales has
regresado a tu conciencia de ella como después de un viaje, cuando nostálgica se lo
recuerda? ¿Procuras volver a ella de inmediato? ¿Te interrumpí cuando ahora mismo
estabas en ella? ¿Quién te crees para pensar que hay otras cosas que hacer? ¿Acaso
has osado considerar incomprensible el que el santo rosario se rece una y otra vez
sin parar y se vuelva a él y se lo lleve en la mano siempre como a la conciencia
misma? Santa Teresa de Lisieux, ilustre carmelita, apenas podía retornar al
convento desde la dimensión de la oración.

confabularon contra el imperio hispánico. Querían lograr que en él, el sol por fin

–Muchos ignorantes dicen… –gritó nerviosamente– dicen que el siglo XVII fue un
siglo de guerras religiosas y otras atrocidades que no sabría enumerar. Otra
mentira del siglo de las luces. En realidad, el siglo XVII fue el mejor siglo de
que la historia humana tenga recuerdo. ¿Puedes imaginar a los atronadores órganos
protestantes interrumpir el rezo abúlico de los rosarios por todos los claustros de
Europa? Esos eran tiempos en que los hombres escogieron un buen argumento para
darse muerte: el respaldo de Dios; si es que damos crédito a la importancia del
conflicto religioso. Por otra parte, hubo muchos santos católicos y compositores de
música para los muchos órganos que con la excusa de edificar templos, sus meras
cajas de resonancia, se estaban erigiendo con auténtico frenesí. A partir de los
mismos argumentos de los que San Anselmo de Canterbury hacía siglos se había
servido para comprobar la existencia de Dios, el filósofo Spinoza dejó claramente
establecido que toda esa comprobación era cierta, pero que perdía validez si Dios
no era más que el propio y miserable Mundo. Cosa bastante espantosa, pues el
evangelio decía que Satanás era el rey del Mundo.

cuando el tiempo de la intuición pura de Immanuel Kant se dé por concluido,


cuestión que según la propia lógica del concepto de tiempo resulta imposible,
porque ¿cómo puede haber un momento posterior al fin del tiempo que no sea también
una continuación de al menos otra clase de tiempo? Si ese tiempo oculto y que
solamente Dios presencia no existe, no veo cómo este órgano tremendo pueda existir.
Es un aspecto del amor de Dios que me llena de horror, y no creo que Bach haya
celebrado un terrible acontecimiento sin al mismo tiempo guardar esperanzas en la
posibilidad metafísicamente incognoscible de aquel tiempo secreto.

parece que Tosca aconseja que los artistas no se metan en política, porque el poder
es una cuestión que el arte no entiende. Lo mismo puede decirse para la religión.
Bach ni siquiera pretendió convencer a la gente de su existencia. Eso queda para el
mundo de hoy. Dios, en aquella época y en Leipzig, estaba ahí, ahí, ahí –y el
estruendo de un acorde repetido lo confirmaba–, pero Él no se habría aparecido como
la Virgen de Fátima o el dios de los mormones en un templo del estado de Utah.

detenerlos. Después la gente se entera y empieza a pedir cosas, hasta automóviles,
algunos. A continuación el Papa dice: “¿Qué está pasando aquí?” y se ve obligado a
beatificar y hasta a canonizar, y allí el trabajo de una superiora se vuelve un
calvario. El abogado del diablo en los procedimientos pide hasta los datos más

la Rusia comunista, en Chile, donde nada universal pasaba —dijo—. Pudo haber
recibido ayuda de los yankis —continuó— pero muchos otros también la recibieron y

Raimundo y Conrado retrocedieron unos pasos. La vieron casi de cuerpo entero


internándose en al agujero, gimiendo y ensuciándose con el fango todo el hábito. Al
cabo de un minuto, levantó el cráneo como si fuese un cáliz. Y recorría el cráneo
con las palmas de las manos. Hundida hasta la cintura en el agujero, el hábito
manchado de tierra mojada, al cráneo fuertemente abrazada, la aureola desde
Raimundo se quedó ondulando junto a los movimientos de Luisa, y Conrado sintió
deseos de vomitar. Luisa recorría el cráneo con el tacto de sus propias mejillas, y
una y otra vez entrecerraba los ojos y buscaba una señal sobre la frente de aquella
cabeza. De improviso la tiró lejos de sí: –No es él –musitó–, ¡No es él!

Su cuerpo ha sido eliminado del universo para que yo no pueda verlo, no pueda
tocarlo y así no llegue a recordar esa parte de mi padre. Su frente me lo ha
indicado gracias sólo a un recuerdo. He tocado los huesos de un desconocido, he
profanado su eterna paz por creer en un epitafio falso. He creído en los vivos… y
no lo suficiente en los muertos y los muertos ya no pueden defenderse de los vivos
cuando los vivos mienten sobre ellos, cuando no dejan espacio en el mundo para la
muerte y para la verdad sobre la muerte.

quisieron reemplazar a la antigua nobleza, la nobleza creadora de Chile, la de la


espada, tildándola de ser decadente, fea y asesina, haciendo asco de que se hayan
muchas veces mezclado con los hombres de Arauco. Para apropiarse de los tesoros que
habían surgido del trabajo de la naturaleza de Chile, esta nueva gente despojó de
sus encomiendas a los antiguos, trataron de indios a los indianos y además
asesinaron a todos cuantos declaraban su lealtad a una corona que en España ya no
existía como antes. En resumen, vendieron el nombre de Chile y lograron así en él
la consolidación de la independencia. Lo que era un Reino se transformó en una
república abierta a todo tipo de malas influencias, conspiradores que odiaban la
tierra que les recibía. Entregaron el bello sur del Reino de Chile a los teutones.
Estos cometieron un incendio de largos diez años y formaron un Estado filogermánico
dentro de Chile, enviando a sus hijos a realizar servicios militares en Alemania,
mientras se quejaban de la belicosidad de la población autóctona y maldecían al
estado chileno por no haberles proporcionado más tierras para hacer pastar vacas y
practicar deportes brutales.

Del interior de aquella teterilla repugnante se dejaba oler un té humedecido y casi


mohoso, de aroma pastoso e intenso. Luisa, aprovechando un nuevo viaje de la

noche allá en la capital. –Tonteras, tonteras, seguro –dijo la mama Norma–, las
chiquillas bailan en la noche, no los niños, menos los niños buenos y altos como
él. –Y cuando se supo que anduvo por aquí, dijeron que andaba con una minifalda y
con unas botas de cuero rojo que le llegaban más arriba de las rodillas, y que
andaba por la calle de tierra bailando como si estuviera en una boite –comentó

Valparaíso, a estudiar. Tanta cabeza y sin estudiar –le sugirió con aire de

artístico en Valparaíso, la gente lo valoraría. –¡Lo hacía en Santiago! –El rostro
enrojecido de lágrimas– ¿qué no te acordai’? –. Buscó a Milady. Solo el foco de la

nítidamente su nombre, a través de la gran ventana del bar-pensionado como un

Se oyeron pasos mojados por el corredor que daba al bar. Por él entró una monja
completamente mojada y sucia. El hábito que traía puesto parecía un enorme trapo
mugroso. Estaba manchado de lodo, y olía a guano. El pelo como un nido de
serpientes muertas, se le despeñaba por el rostro pálido. Se acercó hasta donde
estaba Clemente sentado, al interior del gran traje, y habiéndose inclinado frente
a él, le dijo con una solemnidad graciosa: –Mayorazgo, hermano y señor, tu esclava

No dijeron nada. Luisa y Clemente se desvistieron a prisa, dejaron caer a los pies
de la cama sus ropas mojadas, y se acostaron. Uno junto al otro. El calor corporal
deshumedeció sus cuerpos gélidos, pero el sudor volvió a enfriarlos. Abrazados,
escuchándose mutuamente el fluir de la sangre y la pulsión de la respiración,
perdían a ratos la consciencia a causa del sueño, a ratos la recuperaban, pero el
otro la había perdido para entonces. Se acariciaban torpemente como dos cachorros
aún ignorantes de los límites de sus cuerpos. –El me impidió ser su amigo y por eso
me condenó. Luisa no supo comprender a qué venían esas palabras. –Yo quería
convertirme en su amigo para así dejar de amarlo, pero él me lo impidió.

Luisa entendió que los mapas son los enemigos del relieve. Las montañas eran
gigantes vivos pero de pasos lentos. Ese movimiento tan humano que vemos de la
naturaleza comprime demasiados siglos. Luisa preguntó por la masa de agua. –Es un
embalse –le informó Clemente–. Bonito ¿no es cierto? Nunca más habrá por aquí
problemas de agua para el riego. El gobierno y el señor Lenzmann lo construyeron.
Así era.

–Clemente –exhortó Luisa– ¿dónde está entonces el valle completo, dónde está la
casa de nuestros antepasados, los corrales, los adobes, y todo eso? ¿Por qué me
traes a mirar este fenómeno? Quiero recorrer la casa colonial, mama Norma me contó
sobre ella. Vamos a verla de una vez y no perdamos más tiempo. –Pero, Luisa, Luisa
–rió Clemente– no vas a poder verla… La casa está en el fondo del agua. El embalse
la tapó, y tapó muchos potreros, muchas otras casas de adobe en las que vivía la
gente. La gruta de la virgencita, también la tapó el agua. Fue como un diluvio
cuando el agua empezó a subir. Toda la gente venía a mirar todos los días, desde
las cimas, cómo iba el agua subiendo poco a poco, durante muchos días, y se iba
tragando todos los paisajes, todos los caminos y las huellas que ellos recorrían.
Era motivo de mucha risa ver desde lo alto al mundo desaparecer. Quizás también
será así el fin del Mundo. Veremos desde el cielo, a Dios borrando las cosas de
abajo, hasta que nada quede debajo de nosotros. Ahora la gente viene a bañarse aquí
porque está prohibido apozar el agua del río para bañarse. El embalse necesita toda
el agua posible. Y mira, han llegado personas de Santiago a construirse casas.
Ahora nuestro valle será un destino turístico. Antes, nadie lo conocía.

Maldigo las plantas y las flores que hay por estos cerros, y maldigo las piedras,

–Toda verdad –comenzó Fidelio dándole un tono hasta el momento inédito a sus
palabras–, asumida por el pensamiento acerca de ella, tiende a dogmatizarse.
Entender al dogma como una concepción de las cosas, exterior a las concepciones que
llamamos racionales, ha sido determinante en la actitud frente a la verdad, ahora,
racionalmente pensable, del pensamiento moderno. La verdad, racionalmente asumida y
dogmatizada, conduce a la petrificación mortuoria del concepto cuya protección ella
necesariamente, pensamos, asume. La tutela de ese concepto, por parte de la verdad,
equivale a la edificación de un ídolo, pues, una vez la verdad ha sido asumida como
verdad encontrada, la relación memorística o de reelaboración de la misma, no hace
sino bloquear la relación original que el pensamiento, habiéndola buscado, tenía
con ella. Lord Francis Bacon, en consideración del pensamiento judeocristiano,
acusó la diversidad de ídolos que enturbian la imagen de la verdad, pero no
consignó, y no sería justo reprochárselo, a la verdad en cuanto ídolo: la verdad
muerta. En Kant y mucho más en Wittgenstein, la verdad del pensamiento y no el mero
pensamiento que concibe la verdad, contiene los dispositivos que le permitieron, y
en gran medida hoy le permiten, evitar la dogmatización de ella, aquel que
precisamente es pensamiento de sí misma. En el primero de ellos, por ejemplo, la
imposible verdad acerca de la comprobación racional de la existencia de Dios, evita
cualquier posible dogmatización racional de la verdad de aquella existencia,
cuestión que sí ocurre con el argumento ontológico de San Anselmo de Canterbury, y
las cinco vías de Santo Tomás de Aquino, por cuanto, como se ha ya adelantado, el
tratamiento de Dios como concepto verificable racionalmente, hace de la idealidad
de Dios una realidad mediada por un concepto de él,

armadura. –Hay también un sable, miren, mírenlo, pero es un diseño muy posterior al
de la armadura. Es un sable francés, un sable bonapartista –y estalló en risotadas.

Ese hombre que acaba de morir, su padre, dirán ustedes… verán, ese hombre era algo
extraño y era también un extraño, sí, un extraño, no es que se haya vuelto eso, no,
no… es decir, al parecer siempre lo fue. Sabía cómo actuar de vez en cuando, como
marido, como pariente, como el dueño de una casa, pero se había entrenado en
hacerlo, en imitar lo que quizás de veras hizo en algún momento de su vida, cuando
todavía en él habitaba un poco de ingenuidad, o acaso, aquella falta de apetito que
hace a los hombres comportarse por algunos días frente a la mujer cuando, por
cierto, ya han podido saciar otra apetencia. Era hermético, porque no es posible
que no haya habido nada detrás, no. De haber sido así, digamos… él no habría

porque la relación hacía en él colmar un sentimiento que suplía al odio, o porque

–Luisa, Luisa, Luisa. Ningún hijo fue tan bien hecho como tú. Ella veía eso en ti…
veía la fuerza, por eso te guardaba como a un tesoro, y después nunca más, nunca
más. No me ayudó a volver. Luisa la observó detenidamente. –Tienes razón, no tienes
razón, por eso me eres indiferente… –sin embargo, apenas pudo acabar de decirlo
cuando comenzó a gemir. Se declaró a sí misma una pequeña. Forcejeó otro instante
con Cristina, pero súbitamente cedió, se abandonó a un impulso, y acabó contra el
regazo materno, medio llorando y riendo, abandonando sus última altivez, e invitó a
Clemente, y Clemente se integró al ovillo, al ovillo de lágrimas, de sudoraciones,
de alientos mezclados, y allí se quedó ensamblado a esas dos mujeres –siempre
envuelto en la coraza–, como si ambas lo gestaran otra vez, como si ambas fueran
una.

cultivaba toda clase de flores, flores imposibles de ver crecer en los jardines de
Chile, flores de colores desbordantes, amplias, alargadas y redondas. Nunca aprendí
sus nombres, pero entre todos esos colores, siempre hubo a mi memoria una
excepción, siempre recordé a la Lobelia de Chile. Y a un costado del potrero, el
invernadero hermético aislaba a las flores delicadas de la lobelia que lo cercaba
por entero, a la manera húmeda, cardenalicia y de plaga.

segundo casi lo logra–, ¿qué te hace defender a una familia a la que perteneces
tanto o menos que yo? Una familia que de todas maneras desaparecería, porque
estaban agotados. Mira a Clemente –y lo tomó por el brazo–, Clemente, míralo, él
tiene derecho a quejarse más que tú, más que yo, pero él no culpa a nadie, no lanza
maldiciones, permanece callado, sí, así lo hacían los Manso. Eran estoicos, ¿sabes?
Ellos soportaban cualquier humillación y estaban seguros de que los demás también
debían hacerlo. Nunca los oí quejarse, nunca. Sentían asco de la denuncia, No te

En ese momento los gritos intempestivos de un hombre y una mujer removieron los
muros de la casa junto al estallido de los cristales de las mamparas. Luisa vio
desaparecer en el balcón a Herbert y Cristina como tragados por una improvisada
desaparición del suelo, y vio también a Clemente impulsándose como entusiasmado por
un dios invisible. Se había ayudado por la fuerza que a la de él sumaba el sable
oxidado. Oyeron un segundo y tercer aullido, provenientes desde el fondo del
afuera. Después unas quejas. En un movimiento inconsciente, Luisa se lanzó hacia el
balcón. Allí quitó el rostro de sobre aquel movimiento autómata de los cuerpos. El
mismo temblor de las colas cortadas a las lagartijas. Sumida en los tardos
escrúpulos, apenas extrayendo un sorbo de voz, Luisa le enrostró su mirada. A él le
asaltaba una hemorragia nasal nerviosa: –Clemente… ¿Qué…? –y las nauseas no la
dejaron continuar. Le emergió de la boca el vómito como bajo un impulso automático
de la conciencia. –Tú, tú… –tartamudeó él– hablas mucho pero… tú cedes. –Tenía el
sable, salpicado de rojo, agarrado por ambas manos–. Tú no eres como yo… Yo ahora
soy un guerrero.

patios primeros. Clemente reparó en la existencia, a un borde del camino, de una


estatua que le llamó la atención poderosamente. Se aproximó siempre temiendo pisar
alguna tumba a la cual el terreno podría haber camuflado. La mama Norma no abandonó
su brazo. Era una escultura en mármol, era blanquísima, y representaba a un hombre
de unos cincuenta años o más, apoyando su pecho sobre el hombro de una muchacha
casi adolescente de pie y desnuda también. Ambos parecían avanzar tomados de la
mano derecha mientras ambas manos delicadamente tomadas, ocultaban los genitales
del hombre. Clemente se quedó observando detenidamente la escultura. El hombre
parecía vivo y sus ojos casi de tan abiertos, deshechos, buscaban un punto distante
fuera del volumen marmóreo. La muchacha, en tanto, aún no abría los ojos. Parecía
recién haber nacido, generada un minuto antes. –¿Quiénes son ellos? –preguntó a la
mama Norma, una vez estuvieron junto a la base. –Este es el hombre que llora. –Sí,
pero ¿a quiénes representan? –insistió Clemente. –Esta estatua llora. No llora
sangre, llora lágrimas saladas. –La mama Norma corrió la vista. Miraba ahora
desafiante a Clemente. –Leyendas –dijo Clemente–. ¿Quiénes son? –Adán y Eva.

representation in a cosmopolitan discourse: “Minha curiosidade, o meu interesse,

contemporary universal drama. I am more a spectator of my century than of my
country. For me, the play is civilization, and it is staged in all great theaters
of humanity, now connected by the telegraph”; 24). Silviano Santiago reads Nabuco’s
cosmopolitan declaration as a crucial milestone in a tradition that Antonio Candido
has described as a “síntese de tendencias particularistas e universalistas” (12)

Beyond the essay’s polemical pulse, Borges is concerned with providing an


interpretative framework for the narrative universe he had been assembling since
the mid-i93os, one that was frequently characterized as too abstract, lacking clear
referents, and, most problematically, disregarding and radically reshaping the
traditional motifs of national literature. By the end of the essay, this framework
doubles as a forceful call on Argentine writers to disregard national
determinations and produce a cosmopolitan literature: “Creo que nuestra tradición
es toda la cultura occidental, y creo también que tenemos derecho a esa tradición,
mayor que el que pueden tener los habitantes de una u otra nación occidental” (272)

I believe—along with Sarlo and Molloy—that one should read the differential
affirmation of a cosmopolitan and disruptive aesthetic identity not in terms of a
particularistic cultural politics but as a strategic literary practice that forces
its way into the realm of universality, denouncing both the hegemonic structures of
Eurocentric forms of exclusion and nationalistic patterns of self-marginalization.
In other words, it is a cosmopolitan attempt to undo the antagonistic structures of
a world literary field organized around the notions of cultural difference that
Latin American cosmopolitan writers perceive to be the source of their marginality,
in order to stake a claim on Literature with a capital L—the imaginary,
undifferentiated grounds of a cosmopolitan literature “free from constraint,
whether nationalist or pedagogical” (Balderston 47), or, to borrow the words from
the title of an essay by Juan José Saer, “una literatura sin atributos” (272) (“a
literature without attributes”).

I propose that this is an omnipotent fantasy (an imaginary scenario occupying the
place of the real, according to Lacan), a strategic, voluntaristic fantasy that is
nonetheless very effective in opening a cosmopolitan discursive space where it is
possible to imagine a non-nationalistic, nonanthropocentric path to a modernization
that is set against the horizon of abstract universality. I call this cosmopolitan
discursive space the “world,” and I trace and examine the ways in which Latin
American literature has represented, invoked, challenged, and inhabited this
imaginary space, this world defined as radically exterior to Latin America’s
cultural particularity.

In the tradition formalized by Kant in his moral and political philosophy,


cosmopolitanism is most often thought of as an ethical mandate to concern oneself
with the good of others (Nussbaum), as an obligation to those who are beyond the
people who are close to us like our kin or our compatriots (Appiah). Because
cosmopolitanism is often conceptualized in rather abstract terms, the cultural and
geopolitical obstacles that mediate the cosmopolitan subject’s response to such
universalist unconditional and disinterested demand tend to be overlooked.

In his second seminar, Lacan explains that “desire is a relation of being to lack.
The lack is the lack of being properly speaking” (Ego in Freud’s Theory 223).
Following Lacan, in this book I depict the figure of a cosmopolitan marginal
intellectual defined by both a constitutive lack, translated as a signifier of
exclusion from the order of global modernity, and a longing for universal belonging
and recognition that mediates his discursive practices and measures the libidinal
investment that produces his imaginary cosmopolitan “body-ego” (Freud, Ego 31).5

However, in the first half of the 1980s, there were a number of attempts to
redefine cosmopolitanism, principally in relation to the avant-garde, but also in
relation to modernismo (and even to the Boom and pre-Boom novels of the 1950s and
’60s), as a form of particularized universalism, an inward importation of modern
European literary tropes, vocabularies, and procedures where universalist desires
were subsumed by the particularistic logic of differential (national or regional)
identities. In other words, cosmopolitanism was viewed as the attempt to disrupt
and transform a particular cultural field—usually replete with nationalistic signi-
fiers—by translating the putative universality of modern and modernist metropolitan
cultures into the vernacular languages and aesthetic traditions that make this
appropriation polemical.

Both interrogate the cultural hegemony of western European modern culture and the
aesthetic or conceptual materials that bear the traces of Latin America’s
asymmetric social relation to them. Yet, while cosmopolitanism is the outward
desire for inclusion within that hegemonic formation, transculturation attempts to
disrupt the hegemonic nature of its modernist practices by introducing subaltern
materials that determine its inward movement. That is, cosmopolitanism stresses the
highly ideological, indeed imaginary, impulse to do away with or at least postpone
Latin America’s cultural difference in order to gain access to the perceived
universality of the hegemon, universalizing Latin America’s particularity even at
the cost of erasing it.

I believe Rama’s characterization of cosmopolitanism as the conservative and


elitist Other of the emancipatory aesthetics of transculturation overlooks the
complex tensions between inclusion and elitism, egalitarianism and political
naíveté, in the cosmopolitan traditions that I trace here. If it is true that these
marginal cosmopolitan desires are sustained by narcissistic and omnipotent
fantasies about the openness and receptivity of the universal, it is also true that
transculturizing discourses derive the libidinal force that sustains their politics
from an investment in the redemptive power of literature that is hardly less
symptomatic.

They also reveal the historicity of current ethically inclined cosmopolitan


discourses that seek to overwrite and redirect a process of globalization
(understood as a preeminently economic phenomenon characterized by the
hypercirculation of financial capital, the explosion of global trade and
transnational outsourcing, generalized deregulation, and the decline of traditional
institutions like unions) toward more just goals.10 If, in the context of global
unevenness that results from these combined processes, the inclusionary potential
of this ethically inflected new world literature means that “it is the outliers
that would most benefit from a new global forum” (Tsu 161), why has Latin American
literary criticism largely failed to engage in these debates? As an attempt to
inscribe Latin American literature in the world, and to interrogate the figurations
of the world in Latin American literature, Cosmopolitan Desires answers Jing Tsu’s
challenge to world literary critics to produce an “expansive historicization of the
geopolitical origins of [world literature’s] gesture of hospitality” (i6i).

Second, because its scale is invoked to disrupt the naturalization of the local,
the particular, and the national, world literary discourse can be seen as a
function of the impossibility of the idea of the world as a stable, sutured
totality. The world in Latin American world literary discourse is a space
constituted by an antagonism that prevents its realization as a given totality of
literary texts always already comparable to one another because of a supposedly
common ground. This book analyzes Latin America’s place in the production of a
global modernity shaped by an actually existing field of transcultural exchanges
that supports the critical practices, aesthetic imaginaries, and universalizing
fantasies of world literature.

The focus on Latin America is an invitation to think about the differential


specificity of marginal renderings of the world, vis-à-vis the worlds devised in
metropolitan locations.17 My point throughout the book is that marginal literatures
(however we define the subaltern materiality of their marginalities) expose the
hegemonic making of modernist global mappings. If hegemonic articulations of world
literature (as in Casanova and Moretti) are concerned with singular aesthetic
exchanges as fragments that point to the universal totality of the global, which
can be represented only from the point of view of the epistemological self-
certainty of hegemonic subject positions, the world literary figurations produced
by Latin American cosmopolitan writers are strategic discourses oriented by their
modernizing desires, a point Aguilar effectively makes in his Episodios
cosmopolitas.

Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels described world literature as part of the
globalization of capital in The Communist Manifesto (1847): “The need of a
constantly expanding market for its products chases the bourgeoisie over the whole
surface of the earth. It must nestle everywhere, settle everywhere, establish
connections everywhere. . . . In place of the old local and national seclusion and
self-sufficiency, we have intercourse in every direction, universal inter-
dependence of nations. And as in material, so also in intellectual
production. . . . National one-sidedness and narrow-mindedness become more and more
impossible, and from the numerous national and local literatures, there arises a
world literature” (“Manifesto” 476-77). World literature here stands for the
material, dynamic formation of a global field of symbolic and material exchange,
where Latin American writers and texts actively negotiate the terms of their
participation in this world-historical process.

Along these lines, in chapter 3 I reconstruct a lost archive of modernista world


literary discourses that have never been studied as an organized repository of
deseos de mundo. Because many of these discourses are not contained in self-
standing essays or poems but rather must be found in texts where the desire for
universality coexists in a productive and unresolved tension with the
particularistic goal of producing a differential Latin American identity, this
chapter’s main contribution is to assemble and analyze these texts as an archive,
that is, as part of “a single corpus, in a system or a synchrony in which all
elements articulate the unity of an ideal configuration” (Derrida, “Archive Fever”
10).

Carrillo was the only modernista to live in Paris for the entire duration of the

Cosmopolitanism, then, could be seen as an imaginary discourse (perhaps even a


constellation of neurotic fantasies) that, although it fails to realize its
maximalist universal purpose, nonetheless widens the margins of cultural and
political agency and illuminates new meanings by reinscribing cultural
particularities in larger, transcultural networks of signification. It is my hope
that this book (product of my own cosmopolitan critical fantasies) will accomplish
this same kind of cosmopolitan failure.

Cosmopolitan Purpose” (1784), Immanuel Kant lays out the historiographic parameters
for a reconceptualization of human history that takes as its end the actualization
of freedom in a cosmopolitan political formation that he imagines as a world-

In addition to Kant’s cosmopolitical narrative, I want to underscore an idea that,


to my knowledge, has been overlooked by the many literary critics interested in the
relation between literature and globalization. Toward the end of “Idea for a
Universal History with a Cosmopolitan Purpose,” Kant suggests that the novel could
play an important role in the production of the discourses of globalization by
imagining the world as a totality mediated by bourgeois/modern culture. He
concludes that “it is admittedly a strange and at first sight absurd proposition to
write a history according to an idea of how world events must develop if they are
to conform to certain rational ends; it would seem that only a novel could result
from such premises” (5i-5z).What I find striking about Kant’s admission is his
implicit disciplinary comparison between philosophical and novelistic discourses as
he attempts to determine which is more adequate to tell the story of a modern world
moving toward the global actualization of rational freedom.

This is the unique nature of the relation between the novel and the historical
process of globalization vis-à-vis modern philosophy: if philosophy conceptualized
the transformation of the globe as the realization of a totality of freedom (as
evidenced by Kant, Hegel, and Marx), the novel provided this philosophical concept
with a set of images and imaginaries that elevated the fiction of ubiquitous
modernization to a foundational myth.

The first—the globalization of the novel—works not with particular textual


formations but with the historical expansion of the novel form hand in hand with
the colonial enterprise of western Europe. This concept sheds light on the
historical and theoretical parameters that have been used to study both the
historical spread of the novel from Europe to the peripheries and the constitution,
at the end of the nineteenth and throughout the twentieth century, of a global
system of production, reception, and translation of novels.

It is important to bear in mind that the global preeminence of the novel form among
discursive genres cannot be explained as the result of the universal human impulse
to explain through narration: narration (or storytelling) and the novel (the
historically determined cultural and aesthetic form described here) are in fact
incommensurable cultural practices. The universality of the novel form was the
historical outcome of the formation (through colonialism, trade, and promises of
emancipation) of a world in which modern European culture was increasingly
hegemonic, if not forcefully dominant. Wherever one looked for modern desires (the
desires for self-determination, identity, material development, and progress), one
found novels. One could thus define the novel as modern desire formally enclosed
and regulated.

However, if one looks at the globalization of the novel form as a modern and

In an interesting note in the Prison Notebooks, “Hegemony of Western Culture over


the Whole World Culture,” Gramsci uses the same category that he developed to
analyze social formations within national scenarios to consider the processes of
globalization as the world history of the West’s hegemony over its cultural Others:
“Even if one admits that other cultures have had an importance and a significance
in the process of ‘hierarchical’ unification of world civilization (and this should
certainly be admitted without question), they have had a universal value only in so
far as they have become constituent elements of European culture, which is the only
historically and concretely universal culture—in so far, that is, as they have
contributed to the process of European thought and been assimilated to it” (416).
In this quotation Gramsci is at his most Hegelian. He affirms that World Culture—
the possibility of proposing the existence of a global cultural field—depends on
the universal mediation of Europe. As global hegemon, European culture recognizes
and incorporates the subaltern aesthetic norms, forms, and practices that are
central to the cultures of its Others in order to form a world cultural field
structured around the predominant nuclei that governed the appropriations that gave
it form in the first place—a global cultural field whose universality and
relatively stable homogeneity is the result of the hegemonic mediation of European
or North Atlantic bourgeois/ modern culture.

In this sense, and taking a cue from Gramsci’s understanding of hegemony, the
operation of universalization that constitutes the discursive basis for the
globality of the novel should not be understood as an instance of the periphery’s
cultural subordination to the core. That is why I mention notions of “importation,”
“translation,” and “adaptation,” instead of thinking only in terms of “imitation,”
“implantation,” or “imposition.” The ideas of coercion and consent embedded in the
concept of hegemony presuppose an active agency on the part of peripheral cultures
in the enterprise of universalizing the novel. That is, in the nineteenth and early
twentieth centuries, the representation of the particularity of European modernity
and its institutions as universal was a project shared by intellectuals and
practitioners both at the center and at the margins of a global discursive field
that sanctioned the universality of the novel form.

Jules Verne’s novels make a productive case study of the novelization of the globe.
If spatial meaning is always produced discursively (an idea Edward W. Said worked
through with the notion of “imaginative geography”), or, to put it bluntly, if
fiction is the way we apprehend, categorize, and represent the world, then Verne’s
novels can be said to have provided some of the most radical imaginaries of the
transformation of the planet into a totality of modern culture and sociability,
producing a textual surplus that goes beyond the typical reading of Verne as
colonialist fiction.16

Following Cohen’s clue, I propose to read these narratives of global adventure


(whether at sea, in distant lands, or in outer space) not just as representations
of the global but, perhaps more importantly, as a recreation, reinforcement, and
reproduction of the possibility of the global adventure of the European economic
and political elites. The construction of images and imaginaries of globality, of
the transformation of the earth, is a symbolic challenge too great for one novel.
Therefore, it has to be reconstructed as a panorama, putting together pieces from
much (if not all) of Verne’s novelistic archive. Verne developed a variety of
narrative strategies that permitted novels and their readers to imagine the earth
(in fact, the entire universe) as a bourgeois playing field, ready and available
for science, profit, and amusement.

Jules Verne’s novels are usually read as an intersection of science fiction and
adventure. Without disputing these generic inscriptions, I would like to propose
that, in order to foreground the political relation of his narratives with the
globalization of modern institutions and practices, one needs to examine their
connection to the realist novel’s hegemonic protocols of representation. In other
words, what happens if we think of Verne’s novels as a form of oblique or, rather,
virtual realism—as representation of the real of the bourgeoisie’s technological
potential, that is, reality not necessarily as it is but as it could be? Gilles
Deleuze explains that virtuality is opposed not to the real but to actuality and to
what he calls the possible: “The possible has no reality (although it may have an
actuality); conversely the virtual is not actual, but as such possesses
reality. . . . The possible is that which is ‘realized’ (or is not realized). . . .
For the real is supposed to be in the image of the possible that it realizes. . . .
And every possible is not realized, realization involves a limitation by which some
possibles are supposed to be repulsed or thwarted, while others ‘pass’ into the
real. The virtual, on the other hand, does not have to be realized” (Deleuze,
Bergsonism 96-97). Verne’s novels have been conventionally read as having
prophesied technologies that would be invented in the next century or having
imagined new and hitherto inconceivable uses for the technology already available;
in other words, they have been read in terms of Deleuze’s notion of the possible. I
identify the place of Verne’s novels right on the edge of the realist novel’s
representational protocols: narratives of virtual worlds, virtual practices, and
virtual viewpoints, whose efficacy lies in their ability to illuminate the world-
historical globalizing agency of the bourgeoisie during the second half of the
nineteenth century, precisely because that virtuality points to the potentiality of
a desire for totalization constitutive of the historical subject in his novels,
that can never be fully accomplished.

According to this line of thought, Holmberg represented a spiritual voyage because


it was all that his marginal conditions of enunciation could afford. Nic-Nac’s
journey would thus also be inspired by a cosmopolitan desire to explore what lies
beyond one’s location, but a cosmopolitan drive of less consequence: a spiritual,

I am not particularly interested in determining whether world literature is a tool


meant to classify world literary texts and exclude others, whether it is a
discipline and a way of reading (and thus the new paradigm for comparative
literature), or whether it is the name of the historical formation of a space of
symbolic exchange and circulation that exceeds particular national cultures; world
literature entails, to a certain extent, all of these critical and pedagogical
operations. Rather, I want to focus on the cultural and theoretical effects that
the revival of the concept of world literature may have on the ways we
conceptualize, imagine, and teach the transcultural making of the novel, but also

Behind the rentrée of the concept of world literature lies a commendable political
goal: to imprint a universalist inclination on a US educational system and cultural
environment that has become increasingly chauvinistic and that is (appropriately)
seen as a symbolic battlefield for the future of global citizenship. This aim of
the new world literature, with which it is difficult to disagree, is very much in
line with the radical and controversial proposal of a cosmopolitan education for
American students that Martha Nussbaum put forth over a decade ago in “Patriotism

Indeed, at least some discourses of world literature produce a canon of Global


Great Books that tends to repeat itself in anthologies or on syllabi that too often
reinforce romantic essentialisms (a remnant of Goethe’s concept of Weltliteratur)

Some of the most prominent comparatists have been working for a decade now to
redefine world literature in relation to the heritage of postcolonial studies. This
discursive articulation has managed, to some degree, to move the theory of world
literature away from the two major threats that loom over the discipline. On the
one hand, there is the postulation of world literature as an even playing field
that makes possible an idealistic sense of parity among the literatures of the
world—in other words, world literature as an equalizing discourse that rights the
wrongs of cultural imperialism and/or economic globalization. On the other, there
is an expressive logic according to which some works convey the historical or
aesthetic experience of their cultures of origin and, therefore, become part of the
corpus of a world literature composed of a plurality of global particularities.

This new universal field would transform world literature into a necessarily
collective enterprise with a very clear division of labor: on the ground floor,
specialists produce knowledge about particular literatures through close readings
of texts and cultural contexts; on the upper level or metadiscursive realm, über-
comparatists such as Moretti trace, through what he calls “distant reading,”
universal trends and patterns that make visible the world system of literature as a
global cultural totality. By proposing to read everything, Moretti avoids the
danger of a world literature composed of texts that are chosen and isolated because
of their supposed capacity to express and represent their national or regional
cultures of origin.

We would no longer have magical realism and testimonio standing for all of Latin
America; instead, we would have the entirety of the region’s immensely
heterogeneous aesthetic universe.34 At the same time, as I state in the
Introduction, Moretti’s call to read everything relies on the abstract notion of an
undetermined totality, and the world in his proposed world literature coincides
with the universal qua universal; the textual corpus at stake obscures the concrete
determinations that shape its aesthetic specificity, its boundaries, and its
historicity.

From this Goethean perspective, world literature gives aesthetic form to the
cosmopolitan desire to overcome the restrictions and limitations of our own
particular culture and our claustrophobic experience of it and to affirm the
necessarily universal nature of the promise of cultural emancipation of the planet.
World literature becomes, in short, a discourse with the potential to lead the way
toward the realization of a global culture (as the dialectical negation of the one-
sidedness of local particular cultures) capable of releasing the emancipatory
potential of “culture.”

A cosmopolitan approach attentive to the hegemonic articulations at work in


cultural formations would insist that the global status of García Márquez’s novel
has nothing to do with a supposedly privileged relation to its culture of origin
and would instead investigate the material production of its globality. For

We need to interrogate precisely the process through which an aesthetic formation


becomes a world literary genre. How does a certain literary protocol, recognized
beyond its singularity as a genre, become universally available as a productive and
interpretative device? Only a historical narrative of the actual spread of a given
genre across the globe, an account of material and concrete encounters,
appropriations, resignifications, and transformations, can inform its world
literary stature. Genres and texts belong to world literature not because of what
they are but rather because of what they do: because they perform global desires,
because they further transcultural goals, and because they resist the immediacy of
meaning as a function of the local, whether national or regional. Or rather, they
are made to behave like this, under the gaze of world literary critics. This is why
I insist on the notion of world literary interventions, world literary disruptions
that alter the epistemic geographies of literary history to produce new, contingent
(ephemeral or not) large- scale spatial assemblages, redrawing the boundaries of
the world with each utterance.1

Each of these global dislocations reconfigured magical realism according to the
cultural politics of its appropriations: from avant-garde psychologism, to Latin
Americanism as a redemptive discourse of cultural identity, to its global
postcolonializa- tion (or its postcolonial globalization), and finally to its
commodification and the deactivation of its historico-political potential.

Is magical realism a universal aesthetic that unveils the supernatural core of the
real everywhere thanks to its universal antipositivistic (transhistorical, and
often ahistorical) appeal? Or is it an aesthetic that belongs organically to
marginal cultures marked by traumatic collective experiences of oppression
(colonial or otherwise)? Most of the bibliography on magical realism and world
literature tends to explain the genre’s globality in terms of the first
formulation, while those critics (like Bhabha and Spivak, among many others) that
identify the coupling of magical realism and postcolonialism opt for the second
argument. In this chapter, I attempt to historicize the gap that separates these
two questions about the world literary nature of the genre.

Warnes explains that the German romantic Novalis envisioned in his notebooks the
figure of a prophetic intellectual, whom he referred to as magischer Idealist and
magischer Realist (Schriften 384): the prophet poet who lives outside the
boundaries of enlightened discourse without losing touch with the real, grounding

Magical realism came of age when a group of Caribbean and Central American writers—
Arturo Uslar Pietri, Alejo Carpentier, and Miguel Ángel Asturias, who had
befriended one another in Paris in the late 1920s and early 1930s—reformulated the
concept into an aesthetic form derived from the hybrid nature of Latin American
culture and society.

However, when they met in Paris, the three writers were primarily concerned with
conceiving a cogent aesthetic program capable of expressing their Latin American
cultural particularity, and it was the Venezuelan novelist Uslar Pietri who first
produced, albeit tentatively, a Latin American appropriation of the concept. In a
1986 essay, Uslar Pietri reminisces about those years: Desde 1929 y por algunos
años tres jóvenes escritores hispanoamericanos se reunían, con cotidiana
frecuencia, en alguna terraza de un café de Paris para hablar sin término de lo que
más les importaba que era la literatura de la hora y la situación política de la
América Latina que, en el fondo, era una misma y sola cosa. . . . En Asturias se
manifestaba, de manera casi obsesiva, el mundo disuelto de la cultura maya, en una
mezcla fabulosa en la que aparecían, como extrañas figuras de un drama de guiñol,
los esbirros del Dictador, los contrastes inverosímiles de situaciones y
concepciones y una visión casi sobrenatural de una realidad casi irreal. Carpentier
sentía pasión por los elementos negros en la cultura cubana. Podía hablar por horas
de los santeros, de los ñáñigos, de los ritos del vudú, de la mágica mentalidad del
cubano medio en presencia de muchos pasados y herencias. Yo, por mi parte, venía de
un país en el que no predominaban ni lo indígena, ni lo negro, sino la rica mezcla
inclasificable de un mestizaje cultural contradictorio. La política venía a
resultar un aspecto, acaso el más visible, de esas situaciones de peculiaridad que
poco tenía que ver con los patrones europeos. (“Realismo mágico” 135)

ethnographic and primitivist dimension present in the artistic practice of many
surrealists (what James Clifford has termed “the ethnographic surrealism of the
Parisian Avant-Garde,” 118) resonated with Carpentier’s sensibility and, evidently,
coincided with the writing of Ecué-Yamba-ó.

decades after Roh’s initial conceptualization of magical realism, its European and
Latin American incarnations. He later described how the concept came back to him,
many years after he had taken part in discussions about magical realism in Paris.
“De dónde vino aquel nombre que iba a correr con buena suerte? Del oscuro caldo del

crítico del arte alemán Franz Roh sobre la pintura postexpresionista europea, que

time (Alejo Carpentier: The Pilgrim 109). In any event, what is important about
Uslar Pietri’s quotation is that it puts to rest the critical speculations about
where he (and most likely, Carpentier and Asturias) got the notion of magical
realism. The answer: in Paris, in 1927, in Fernando Vela’s Spanish translation of
Roh’s piece that was published in the influential Revista de Occidente ( Western

Magical realism is intrinsically linked to the narration of historical events.


Perhaps as a residue of the surrealist influence, Carpen- tier’s marvelous real
appears as an account of the real history of Latin America, an interpellation of
the Truth (to put it in Hegelian terms) of the region’s history. The unearthing,
manipulation, and rewriting of historical references is an omnipresent strategy in
magical realism in Latin America and elsewhere.

Cap Français, where black men lived like the rulers of Versailles for a short
period in the nineteenth century. Carpentier saw the marvel that gave access to a
“superior reality” (according to the surrealist mandate that he had absorbed in
Paris) to be the result of the hybridization of cultures, religions, and
polities.11 The very modern desire for freedom was articulated in terms of magical
emancipations: “una tierra donde millares de hombres ansiosos de libertad creyeron
en los poderes licantrópicos de Mackandal, a punto de que esa fe colectiva
produjera un milagro el día de su ejecución” (“Prólogo” 5)

Carpentier formulates a novel idea—indeed, foundational—that was not present in


Roh, Bontempelli, or Uslar Pietri: the marvelous real is a cultural condition and
not a universally available aesthetic perception of reality; it is the defining
trait of Latin American reality. According to Carpentier, if Latin America had a
literary and artistic tradition that, in the past, had dealt with the marvelous
nature of the region (from the chronicles of conquest to his own Ecué-Yamba-ó and
now El reino de este mundo), it was because these narratives stemmed directly,
immediately, from a naturalized experience of the reconciliation of the real and
the marvelous in the region.

In Latin America, according to Carpentier, the marvelous does not have to be


invented by poets because it can be found “at every turn” (87) and therefore its
literary presentation results from an apparently simple mimetic operation. In
Europe, in contrast, where a positivistic social structure lacking in magic is
preeminent, the marvelous can only be artificially invoked through the mediation of
aesthetic artifice determined by its own historical horizon.12

En ese momento Mackandal agitó su muñón que no habían podido atar, en un gesto
combinatorio que no por menguado era menos terrible, aullando conjuros desconocidos
y echando violentamente el torso hacia adelante. Sus ataduras cayeron, y el cuerpo
del negro se espigó en el aire, volando por sobre las cabezas, antes de hundirse en
las ondas negras de la masa de esclavos. Un solo grito llenó la plaza. —Mackandal
sauvé! Y fue la confusión y el estruendo. Los guardias se lanzaron, a culatazos,
sobre la negrada aullante, que ya no parecía caber entre las casas y trepaba hacia
los balcones. Y a tanto llegó el estrépito y la grita y la turbamulta, que muy
pocos vieron que Mackandal, agarrado por diez soldados, era metido decabeza en el
fuego, y que una llama crecida por el pelo encendido ahogaba su último grito.
Cuando las dotaciones se aplacaron, la hoguera ardía normalmente, como cualquiera
hoguera de buena leña. (El reino de este mundo 18) This was what their masters did
not know; for that reason they had squandered so much money putting on this useless
show, which would prove how completely helpless they were against a man chrismed by
the great Loas. Macandal was now lashed to the post. The executioner had picked up
an ember with the tongs. With a gesture rehearsed the evening before in front of a
mirror, the Governor unsheathed his dress sword and gave the order for the sentence
to be carried out. The fire began to rise towards the Mandigue, licking his legs.
At that moment Macandal moved the stump of his arms, which they have been unable to
tie up, in a threatening gesture which was none the less terrible for being
partial, howling unknown spells and violently thrusting his torso forwards. The
bonds fell off and the body of the Negro rose in the air, flying overhead, until it
plunged into the black waves of the sea of slaves. A single cry filled the square:
“Macandal saved!” Pandemonium followed. The guards fell with rifle butts on the
howling blacks, who now seemed to overflow the streets, climbing toward the
windows. And the noise and screaming and uproar were such that very few saw that
Macandal, held by ten soldiers, had been thrust head first into the fire, and that
a flame fed by his burning hair had drowned his last cry. When the slaves were
restored to order, the fire was burning normally like any fire of good wood.
(Kingdom 31-32) This scene, the one most often cited as a perfect narrative
performance of the marvelous real, is structured as an irreconcilable opposition of
the rational, positivistic point of view of the white colonialists and the magical
conception of the real of the slaves.

The novel performs a marvelous real discourse very different from the one put forth

actuality lies on the side of the French colonizers, while the marvelous is an
epistemology of the oppressed, a willful projection of a subaltern who is motivated
by the need to anchor hope in a better future. By discrediting the point of view of
the slaves, Carpentier contradicts the proposal of his preface and reinscribes his
conception of the marvelous within the frame of the primitivist mind-set of the
French avant-garde. He also opens up the meaning of magical realism to future
postcolonial selfconscious appropriations of the genre.

After Carpentier and Asturias set up theoretical and narrative practices of magical
realism as the literary identity politics of Latin America, the Haitian novelist
Jacques Stéphen Alexis gave a lecture at the first Congress of Black Writers in
1956 at the Sorbonne, “Du réalisme merveilleux des Haïtiens” (“On the Marvelous
Realism of the Haitians”). He proposed an aesthetic capable of representing the
social totality of a Caribbean culture that he saw deeply rooted in the living
tradition of the mythic, the legendary, and the marvelous.18 Amaryll Chanady points
out that the crucial difference between Carpentier’s and Alexis’s approach is the
latter’s emphasis on the merveilleux as the language of non-Europeanized Haitians
and Latin Americans. While Carpentier attempted to re-create the worldview of the
Other from a position of exteriority, Alexis searches for an expressive form that
springs from the local culture (Chanady, Entre inclusion et exclusion 109-21).

In many cases these attempts were formulated in rather explicit postcolonial terms;
in others, the postcolonial cultural politics were a retrospective theoretical
attribution; and in yet a third group, magical realism was described in purely
formal terms, without any allusion to its potential relation to the political and
cultural projects of an imagined collectivity. It was a scholar, Ángel Flores, in a
famous lecture given in 1954 and published a year later, “El realismo mágico en la
narrativa hispanoamericana” (“Magical Realism in Spanish American Fiction”), who
returned to a structuralist definition of magical realism that valued the concept
for its “intrinsically aesthetic merits” (109) as a formal “amalgamation of realism
and fantasy” (112). This tendency to define magical realism in strictly formal
terms that overlook its historical, cultural, and political determinations has led
many critics to include almost any text featuring a fantastic episode not
explainable by the laws of physics, regardless of when or where it may have been
produced, within the flexible boundaries of magical realism.

Devoid of the specific historical context and cultural politics that differentiate
it from mere fantasy and other forms of narrative that defy the “rational, linear
worldview of Western realist fiction” (Ashcroft, Griffiths, and Tiffin, Post-
colonial Studies 133), magical realism became an empty signifier that fit
practically every text to critique the stability of the referential world and the
possibility of accessing it in a transparent and direct manner.

This ahistorical definition of the concept led Flores to declare a misguided Latin
American genealogy of magical realism composed of authors whose texts could not be
further from Carpentier’s proposal or Asturias’s practice. Flores’s genealogy
begins with Jorge Luis Borges’s Historia universal de la infamia (A Universal
History of Infamy) (1935) and El jardín de los senderos que se bifurcan (The Garden
of Forking Paths) (1941) and continues with María Luisa Bombal’s La última niebla
(House of Mist) (1935), Silvina Ocampo’s Viaje Olvidado (Forgotten Journey) (1937),
Adolfo Bioy Casares’s La invención de Morel (The Invention of Morel) (1942), José
Bianco’s Sombras suele vestir (Shadow Play) (1944), and other texts that simply
cannot be read under the rubric of magical realism.20

In the 1980s, this same dehistoricizing move took hold of the notion of magical
realism in the English-speaking world. After Gabriel García Márquez’s 1982 Nobel
Prize, David Young and Keith Holloman edited an anthology, Magical Realist Fiction,
that defined the concept of magical realism in similarly vague terms and yet
immediately became a textbook in classrooms worldwide: Whatever its limitations—and
all such terms have them— we found the term and what it implied extremely useful in
defining for ourselves a category of fiction that could be distinguished from
traditional realistic and naturalistic fiction, on the one hand, and from
recognized categories of the fantastic: ghost story, science fiction, gothic novel,
and fairy tale. . . . The recent increase in popularity of the term has made us
feel less defensive about our decision to stick with it, but there is also the fact
that any other term, such as “fiction of the marvelous,” or “fiction of conflicting
realities,” would be both more cumbersome and less expressive. (1)

Ato Quayson provides the most convincing definition of the formal specificity of
the rhetoric of magical realism, distinguishing it from the fantastic by describing
the differential relation it establishes between the real and the extraordinary in
terms of a “principle of equivalence”: “It is not that magical realism does not
share elements of the fantastic with other genres, but that in confounding any
simple or clear sense of spatial, ethical, or motivational hierarchies between the
real and the fantastic, magical realism generates a scrupulous equivalence between
the two domains” (“Fecundities” 728). This principle of equivalence, which recalls
Chiampi’s idea of the denaturalization of the real and the naturalization of the
marvelous cited at the beginning of the chapter, is not at work in fantasy, where
the abnormal and the marvelous are never normalized.

In other words, magical realism should not be considered an aesthetic form that can
be forged anywhere, under any sociocultural conditions, but rather as a discourse
that emerges from cultural formations marked by the perception of a lack (in the
Lacanian sense) and the registration of emancipatory desires that dislocate and
reconfigure hegemonic mappings of world literature. Indeed, it could be said that
the most important contribution of the Latin American writers who reinvented the
category and practice of magical realism was to imprint in the genre’s DNA an
awareness of the indissoluble relation between aesthetic form and the specificity
of the historical determinations that separate magical realism from other
neighboring narrative discourses.

These are not magical, marvelous, or strange episodes that take place under the
eyes of delusional or prophetic individuals (as in the case of D. M. Thomas’s The
White Hotel [1981]), or in unspecified and undetermined collectivities. On the
contrary, their magical nature is a “categorical affirmation: there is no doubt
that Remedios the beauty ascends to heaven; there’s no doubt that butterflies
always follow Meme and Mauricio Babilonia” (Rama, Edificación 125). In other words,
magic is structurally determined: the community where these events occur is
politically mediated by the traumatic experience of a clash between modernization
and tradition, between oppression and a demand for justice typical of Latin
American culture since the nineteenth century.

soledad in the history of the postcolonial globalization of magical realism has to


do precisely with the narrative and interpretative horizon that García Márquez
opened up by making visible the relation between the universality of (colonial,
postcolonial, capitalist) modern history and the particularity of local forms of
oppression. It would be difficult to read the very productive uses of magical
realism in Salman Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children (1980), Latife Tekin’s Dear
Shameless Death (1983), Toni Morrison’s Beloved (1987), Ben Okri’s The Famished
Road (1991), Mia Couto’s Sleepwalking Land (1992), and Mo Yan’s Big Breasts and
Wide Hips (1996) without accounting for the material history of the globalization
of magical realism, and of García Márquez’s novel in particular.24 The debt of most
of these novels to Cien años de soledad’s practice of “magical realism as a means
of interrogating ideas about history, culture and identity” (Warnes, Magical
Realism 96) is self- evident

Much more persuasive than this affirmation of the universality of magical realism
is Doris Sommer and George Yúdice’s hypothesis about the reasons why these Latin
American narratives were immediately understood and embraced across the world: “The
appeal to foreign readers, no doubt, owed something to their degree of familiarity
with or preparedness for the Latin American extensions of a European, sometimes
called universal, literary tradition. That very familiarity allowed them to
appreciate how supplements to that tradition were unpredictable and refreshing.”
But they explain that their appeal resided not only in the fact that “Spanish-
Americans exploited the lessons of modernists to their own ends” but also perhaps
in the very effective articulation in these novels of “a tenuous or paradoxical
balance between aesthetic experimentation and ethico-political motivation” (“Latin
American Literature” 860-61). Even though Sommer and Yúdice are thinking about
García Márquez and others’ success in world publishing markets, their hypothesis is
particularly useful for exploring why Latin American magical realism was singled
out as a productive aesthetic matrix to appropriate and reimagine from other
peripheries of the world where writers felt the pressing need of “destabilising the
binaries of imperial romance—coloniser and colonised, knowledge and inscrutability,
western and other—upon which colonial fictions depend” (Warnes, Magical Realism
39).

By the mid-1970s, and even more so after he won the Nobel Prize in 1982, readers in
Europe and the United States (but also in countries from the Eastern bloc, the
British Commonwealth and the Middle East) were devouring Cien años de soledad. For
most of these audiences the book’s appeal was linked to the interest in Latin
America that the Cuban Revolution and the iconography of Che Guevara had triggered
throughout the 1960s and ’70s, and the work was received both as a technical
prodigy and as an exotic commodity (Kennedy). But thanks to the unparalleled wide
reach of the novel in translation, English-speaking postcolonial intellectuals were
the ones first and most intensely interpellated by magical realism.

the world he was describing and the world that I knew from South Asia, from India

lives; also a world in which there was a powerful and complicated history of
colonialism; also a world in which there were colossal differences between the very
poor and the very rich, and not much in between; also a world bedeviled by
dictators and corruption. And so to me, what was called “fantastic” seemed
completely naturalistic. (“Inverted Realism”)

This process transfigured the aesthetic value of magical realism into a commodity
whose formulaic contours were shaped according to market niche expectations, as in
the cases of Isabel Allende’s La casa de los espíritus (The House of the Spirits)
(1982), Angela Carter’s Nights at the Circus (1984), Patrick Süskind’s Perfume
(1985), Laura Esquivel’s Como agua para chocolate (Like Water for Chocolate)
(1989), and Marie Darrieussecq’s Pig Tales (1997), among many other cases.27 These
novels no longer operated within the terrain set up by Carpentier and Asturias (and
later reinforced by García Márquez), a magical realism defined by an organic
interaction with its cultural-historical situation, capable of codifying ethnic and
racial tensions and hybridities in the context of the Caribbean, Central America
and the Indian subcontinent, nor were they invested in political, emancipatory,
messianic imaginaries, postcolonial or otherwise. These post-magical realist novels
inscribed their poetics and circulated in a world literary field structured as a
global market where magical realism had become a niche, a designated shelf in
corporate bookstore chains.

Juan José Saer was one of the most notable writers who articulated a polemical
discourse on the imposition of magical realist expectations for Latin American
writers. At the end of the 1960s Saer had moved to Paris from Santa Fe, Argentina,
thanks to a film scholarship. His experience as a Latin American writer in Europe,
having to address magical realist demands in his dealings with editors, the press,
and award-granting institutions, certainly informed the polemical position he
articulated in the 1979 programmatic essay “La espesa selva de lo real” (“The Thick
Forest of the Real”). There, he defended the project of a Latin American literature
conceived, following the antinovelist Macedonio Fernández, as “una crítica de lo
real” (268) (“a criticism of the real”), dispossessed of Latin American
specificity: “La tendencia de la crítica europea a considerar la literatura
latinoamericana por lo que tiene de específicamente latinoamericano me parece una
confusión y un peligro, porque parte de ideas preconcebidas sobre América Latina y
contribuye a confinar a los escritores en el gueto de la latinoamericanidad” (268-
69)

Since 1979 (to use the arbitrary date of Saer’s essay), the global travels of
magical realism as avant-garde, postcolonial, and commodity forms make it
impossible to distinguish the aesthetic program of magical realism from the
European (and North American) expectations that constitute the historicity of the
last moment of its globalization. In other words, Saer’s criticism is directed to
both, or rather, to the imaginary intersection and overlap between the two, which
is the point where a hegemonic demand is met by the Latin American performance of a
magical realist cultural identity.

The ideological opposition to magical realism took an interesting and polemical


turn in Latin America in 1996 when the Chilean novelist Alberto Fuguet and Sergio
Gómez gathered a group of young writers from Chile, Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, and
Mexico to publish a collection of short stories under the title McOndo, identifying
themselves as a generational break with García Márquez and the aesthetic of magical
realism.28 In “I Am Not a Magic Realist” (1997), Fuguet rewrites for the English-
speaking reading public “Presentación del país McOndo” (1996), the introduction to
the collective volume that he co-wrote with Gómez. There, he describes his
experience at the prestigious International Writers’ Program at the University of
Iowa and the trauma of being told he was a bad Latin American writer because he
“lacked magical realism.” But beyond its anecdotic appearance, the purpose of the
essay and the introduction to McOndo is to define the aesthetic horizon of his
entire generation’s literary enterprise in opposition to that of the writers of the
Boom: Unlike the ethereal world of García Márquez’s imaginary Macondo, my own world
is something much closer to what I call McOndo—a world of
McDonald’s, Macintoshes and condos. In a continent that was ultra-politicized,
young, apolitical writers like myself are now writing without an overt agenda,
about their own experiences. Living in cities all over South America, hooked on
cable TV (CNN en español), addicted to movies and connected to the Net. . . . I get
suffocated by thick, sweet, humid air that smells like mangos, and I get the
munchies when I begin to fly among thousands of colorful butterflies. I can’t help
it; I’m an urban dweller through and through. The closest I’ll ever get to “Like
Water for Chocolate” is cruising titles at my local Blockbuster. . . . Writers
today who mold themselves after the Latin American “boom” writers of the 1960s
(García Márquez, Carlos Fuentes, Mario Vargas Llosa, to name a few) have
transformed fiction writing into the fairy-tale business, cranking out shamelessly
folkloric novels that cater to the imaginations of politically correct readers—
readers who, at present, aren’t even aware of Latino cultural realism. . . . I feel
the great literary theme of Latin American identity (who are we?) must now take a
back seat to the theme of personal identity (who am I?). The McOndo writ- ers—such
as Rodrigo Fresán and Martín Rejtman of Argentina, Jaime Bayly of Peru, Sergio
Gómez of Chile, Edmundo Paz Soldán of Bolivia and Naief Yeyha of Mexico, to name a
few—base their stories on individual lives, instead of collective epics. This new
genre may be one of the byproducts of a free-market economy and the privatization
craze that has swept South America. . . . As a character from my second book said:
“I want to write a saga, but without falling into the trap of magical realism. Pure
virtual realism, pure McOndo literature. Kind of like ‘The House of the Spirits,’
only without the spirits.”

In this sense, Fuguet’s view of magical realism as a stigma, a plummet, a risible


utopia, and a historical collective mistake should be read as an intervention in
the field of world literature. On the one hand, he is addressing extra- and trans-
Latin American reading publics: “politically correct” world readers who “aren’t
even aware” times have changed. World literature becomes a space where identities
are redefined (from Macondo to McOndo) and their cultural particularity becomes
visible in the context of transnational forms of legibility.

On the other, McOndo signifies a new Latin American relation with world literature
as a global market where the structural distance between high and popular culture
has been collapsed. Fuguet has no problem with the circulation of literature as
commodity; what concerns him is that Euro-American readers and literary
institutions are buying antiquities, relics, without any current exchange value.
Fuguet’s rejection of magical realism is a Latin American symptom of a world-
historical neoliberal break, a break that he sees as the condition of possibility
of a new aesthetic ideology successfully determined by the social hegemony of
postnational and deterritorialized economic forces and novel consumerist
subjectivities.

At the same time, the articulation of literary concerns crystallized in the McOndo
trademark, alluding to a fast-food chain, a line of globally popular computers, and
residential units mass produced with readymade materials, subverts the place of
literature as a privileged site of cultural and political agency, the status it
held for the Boom writers in general and García Márquez in particular. And again,
as in the case of the desacralized circulation of commodities, this undoing of
hierarchies and the elitism of the Latin American literary tradition directly
relates (in Fuguet’s eyes) to the extremely creative disruption of market forces in
the cultural field and the way actors identify themselves in it.29

key to modernism”). In filling this void, establishing a modern culture where, to
them, there was none, modernistas took on the work of cultural and aesthetic
modernization with confidence in the omnipotence of their modern sensibility.

For modernistas, what was modern in a Latin America devoid of modernity was their
own modern desire, in perfect synchronicity with what they imagined as the
universality of European modernism; or, as Aníbal González has pointed out, “En vez
de señalar la necesidad de ser modernos, los escritores modernistas hacen su
literatura desde el supuesto de que ya son modernos” (Crónica 7)

My contention in this chapter is that world literature, as a critical discourse on


the literatures of the world, was for modernistas a significant way to address the
question of the realization of their modern subjectivities in what they perceived
as a desolate cultural field. If in Part One I argued that world literature was a
form of critical engagement with the transcultural determinations of specific
cultural phenomena, as well as with the historical and hegemonic formation of an
enlarged field of symbolic exchanges, here I put forth that it also can be
understood as the discursive articulation of a deseo de mundo or desire for the
world that points to the modernization of Latin America in cosmopolitan terms.

Conversely, modernismo’s world literary discourse does not invoke foreign
literatures to signify “otherness” but rather views foreign works and authors, in
classical cosmopolitan fashion, as distant relatives and kindred spirits whose
names signify the presence of a world that includes Latin America—a community of
modernizing aesthetics that determines the meaning of the modernistas’ own
practice. What defines their world literary discourse is not the accumulation of
references to one or another foreign literature or text (even though they
effectively accumulate those references) but the postulation of a world defined by
an antagonistic relation with cultural forms of locality that connote, in the eyes
of the modernistas, a backward sense of the past and the present.

If Martí, Gutiérrez Nájera, and González Prada, among others, are considered
emblematic contributors to the foundation of a Latin Americanist identity for Latin
America—that is, a differential identity defined by a particularistic determination
—I argue that they also articulate a universalist discourse on the literatures of
the world that is in blatant contradiction to their own particularistic goals.
Recognition of this unresolved tension is essential to a complete and complex
understanding of the discursive forces at stake for the modernistas, as well as in
the Latin American cultural field through the first half of the twentieth century.
To be clear, I propose that the cosmopolitan subject of world literary discourses
does not coincide with the biological person of the writers but rather is a subject
position that they assume at very specific historical junctions as a way of
responding to specific modernizing demands that a particularistic, nationalist or
regionalist discourse of cultural difference would not satisfy.

Although often cited, this opening paragraph has never been recognized for what it
is: the first Latin American world literary discourse, the first articulation of a
concern, regarding not this or that individual foreign literature, text, or author
(I will return to the foreign nature of the textual formation that Martí describes)
but rather the universality of literature and the possible emancipatory effects of
this inscription of universality in America’s literary body. Martí condemns the
state of the region’s cultural field (“espíritu actual”): isolated, belated, and in
need of modernity to help it transcend the limits of Hispanic sameness and cultural
particularity (“las fronteras de nuestro espíritu son las de nuestro lenguaje”).6
Martí’s call to world literature shows his impatience with the absence of deseo de
mundo, a lack of interest on the part of Latin Americans about what lies beyond the
limits of a monolingual existence, whether in the metrópoli or in its current and
former colonies.

world literature as the most productive way to overcome Spain’s backwardness and to
synchronize Peruvian culture with the secular universality of modernity: “Dejemos

Between 1893 and 1894, the Colombian Bal- domero Sanín Cano (a transitional figure
in Latin American literature who bridged modernismo and the liberal humanism of
Alfonso Reyes and Victoria Ocampo) wrote “De lo exótico,” a lecture first and an
essay later, that invited Latin American writers to expand the region’s restricted
set of intellectual interests: “No hay a falta de patriotismo, ni apostasía de raza
en tratar de comprender lo ruso, verbigracia, y de asimilarse uno lo escandinavo. .

Know thyself versus Forget about your belated, limited self momentarily and know

reflection on the conditions that make possible that self’s inscription in the

Rama works through two notions of autonomy. The first is the paradoxical autonomy
of the literary sphere produced by a process of specialization of writers that is
not supported by a full-blown market in symbolic goods: “Producida la division del
trabajo y la instauración del mercado, el poeta hispanoamericano se vio condenado a
desaparecer. . . . La actividad específica del escritor, y especialmente del poeta,
no tenía un sitio previsto en la estructura económica que estaba siendo
transplantada de Europa a tierras americanas” (Rubén Darío 50, 55) (“Given the
division of labor and the establishment of the market, the Spanish American poet
found himself condemned to disappear. . . . The specific activity of writer, and
especially of poet, did not have a planned place in the economic structure that was
being transplanted from Europe to the American lands”). Second, autonomy as a
process of differentiation from Spain produces a particularly Latin American
aesthetic identity: “la primera independencia poética de América que por él y los
modernistas alcanza mayoría de edad respecto a la península madre, invirtiendo el
signo colonial que regía la poesía hispanoamericana” (Rubén Darío 10-11) (“the
first poetic independence of America that because of him [Darío] and the
modernistas reached its age of maturity, with respect to the mother peninsula,
inverting the colonial sign that had ruled Spanish American poetry”).12 Both
notions of autonomy are crucial to an understanding of the prevalent critical
narratives about modernismo since the 1970s.13

The foreign Other that is not strange but is the signifier of my own cosmopolitan
desire does not appear to Martí and the modernistas as either a Hegelian
dialectical Other that must be conquered and colonized to achieve a form of
knowledge and subjectivity that transcends the merely individual or a Lacanian
Other that determines the subject’s inscription in the symbolic/social order. It is
rather an Other whose foreignness stands for the outside exterior of
particularistic identity, at a moment when that identity bears the marks of
isolation and exclusion from the order of modernity. That is, it is an Other that
represents the opposite of a present lack and therefore represents the desired
modernist plenitude of Latin American culture.

Modernistas want to read the world for themselves, and even translations—perhaps
because of their peninsular origin—are an obstacle to overcome. And the assertion
that “conocer diversas literaturas es el medio mejor de libertarse de la tiranía de

Hispanic tradition with a monopolistic and tyrannical presence in the Latin

Or to put it differently, is there a world in the opening paragraph of “Oscar


Wilde,” or just foreign literatures? And what is the difference between foreign
literatures and world literature? Where would one find the notion of world
literature here? First of all, in the seemingly random enumeration that includes
Slavic, German, and Saxon literatures and deliberately avoids the more predictable
non-Hispanic literatures: English, French, and Italian. This is the first meaning
of Martí’s normative call to investigate “diversas literaturas,” in order to
modernize Latin American letters. It is not about an affirmative desire to become
French, or American, or English (never Spanish); rather, it points to the
cosmopolitan dynamics of a world literary desire, “esa ansia de salir de sí, y esa
noble inconformidad con ser lo que es, que generan todas las escuelas filosóficas”

A necessary precondition for modernismo’s desire for universality is a highly


ideological and voluntaristic discursive cancellation of difference, that is, the
conceptualization of the relation between singularities, within an imagined global
cultural field, in terms not of difference but of diversity. Because, while the
concept of “difference” accentuates the break and the antagonism between one and
its Other (an Other that is necessarily foreign in the way it triggers the process
of antagonistic self-affirmation), the concept of “diversity” presupposes a field
of equal singularities whose difference can be overcome because of their structural
equivalence.20

a formation whose identity is determined by its openness to the world and its
representation of local processes of cultural modernization as part of overarching
global phenomena. That is precisely what the modernista world literary discourse
does: it dilutes the emphasis on Latin American singularity to redefine Latin
American literature and culture in relation to a world conceived as the backdrop
for the actualization of the universality of modern literature. Recognition of the
unevenness of socioeconomic and cultural positions of enunciation within a
geopolitically determined global system of literary exchanges is crucial to an
understanding of the specificity of the marginal cosmopolitanism at work in the
modernistas’ world literary discourse. For instance, in describing Wilde’s
performance, Martí stresses Wilde’s confidence in the place he occupies in this
global network; this aesthetic plenitude is in striking contrast with the Cuban’s
complaint about the isolation of Latin American letters. Martí is self-conscious
about his marginal position of enunciation, and the presence of Wilde on stage
allows him to articulate that difference. The asymmetry between lecturer and
spectators is echoed in the unevenness between Wilde and Martí’s cultural
locations. Even if conservative North Atlantic readers marginalize and censor Wilde
(“Es un elegante apóstol, lleno de fe en su propaganda y de desdén por quienes se
la censuran” (“Oscar Wilde” 287) (“He is an elegant apostle, filled with faith
in his message and scornful of those who criticize it”; 261), to Martí, on that
evening at Chickering Hall, he stands for the universality of a renewed modern
culture—“predica lo Nuevo” (288) (“the new is proclaimed”; 261); Wilde is “el
innovador” (288) (“the innovator”; 261)—and becomes both the signifier of Latin
America’s exclusion and the figure of a sense of belonging to come.25

Martí, the cleverest of observers, takes note of Wilde’s performance of queer


difference: “aderezado con un traje extravagante que no añade nobleza ni esbeltez a
la forma humana, ni es más que una tímida muestra de odio a los vulgares hábitos
corrientes” (292) (“attired in a garb whose extravagance adds neither dignity nor
grace to the human form and is nothing more than a timid demonstration of hate for
ordinary dress”; 268-69). Sylvia Molloy was the first to point out that Martí “is
clearly disturbed by the extravagance he has before his eyes” (“Too Wilde” 188).
Indeed, Martí goes back and forth between awe at the aesthetic performance and the
need to re-stabilize his threatened moral center: “Embellecer la vida es darle
objeto. Salir de sí es indomable anhelo humano, y hace bien a los hombres quien
procura hermosear su existencia” (289) (“Beautify life and you give it meaning. The
desire to rise above oneself is an unrelenting human longing, and he who beautifies
man’s existence serves him well”; 260), but “Hiere los ojos ver a un galán gastar
chupilla de esta época, y pantalones de la pasada, y cabello a lo Cromwell” (289)
(“It is distressing to see this young man dressed up in the latest waistcoat,
outmoded breeches, an antiquated hairdress”; 2 62).26

as an “ambiente fuera del tiempo y del lugar en que han nacido o viven.” Even if,
following Darío, Coll’s world literature has a French inclination, or experiences
the world through a French symbolist sensibility (he explicitly linked his idea for
the magazine with the Revista de América [American Review] that Darío published in
Buenos Aires at the same time), it is still conceptualized as a cosmopolitan
enterprise. The French and decadent texts, as well as the French favorites from the
Russian canon that he includes in Cosmópolis, are there not as expressions of a
particular French culture but as works representative of a French culture whose
particularity is identical to the universality of modernity and that expresses a
cosmopolitan desire to abandon a local, historical time and place, whether French,
Venezuelan, or Latin American.34

While Martí and Gutiérrez Nájera attempted to address concrete cultural and
aesthetic agents how to go about their intellectual practices (you should stop
worrying about your Hispanic tradition and be concerned with the modern world out
there), the terms Coll chose for the cosmopolitan fabric of his world literary
discourse (humanity, homeland, ideology, peace, etc.) empty the meaning of the
universal. World literature as it is normatively demanded by Martí and Gutiérrez
Nájera had the concrete content of the actually existing literatures of the world,
but Coll’s invocation of a world community whose content is as abstract as the
notion of humanity exposed itself to challenges about the effectiveness of its
cultural politics. Coll later addressed these criticisms, downplaying his initially
abstract radical universalism.

This ideological fantasy, in which the particularity of every culture disappears in


favor of their shared actualized universality, would be translated, not into
“diversas literaturas,” but into one single, homogeneous global literature. This
literature could perhaps be exemplified by the formal universality of genres such
as the nineteenth-century novel considered synchronically (as in the comparison
between Jules Verne and Eduardo Holmberg in chapter 1).

Gómez Carrillo identifies the resistance to world literature not only as a question
of cultural predisposition and character, as in the case of his friend’s reaction
to Ibsen’s plays, but also as the result of institutional design that prevents a
cosmopolitan discourse on Latin American aesthetic modernity from taking root. He
sees his role as an antidote to an academia dominated by a particularistic
Hispanophilic or Latinist cultural ideology, as a mediating agent who can bring the
literatures of the world to Latin American and Spanish readers, breaking down the
cultural and institutional resistances to aesthetic difference and helping them
realize that by reading novels such as the Russian realist classics they can be one
(“compatriotas . . . por el sentimiento”) with a world unified by the aesthetic
experience of modernity.

However, the mediating subject position that Gómez Carrillo assumed—and, to a large

The second determination has to do with the status of French as a language that
worked as a universal platform for cosmopolitan literary relations, with
translation as the operation that mediated and thus constituted the material
transcultural nature and the desired universality of that literary field. For Gómez
Carrillo, as for much of the Latin American cultural and intellectual elite, French
was the universal lingua franca of marginal global modernisms—not because the
Egyptian Molières, Turkish Ohnets, or Latin American Verlaines wrote in French
(although, as I analyze in the next chapter, Darío made it a point to problematize
this notion), but because French was the language of exchange between local
modernisms, the universal currency that made it possible for a Latin American
writer to be acquainted with texts originally written in German, Norwegian,
Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Albanian, and Serbo-Croatian, among other languages.

Latin American and peninsular modernist literature and to engage with institutions
that held different forms of power in that discursive debate. Two of these
institutions were Walt Whitman—a paramount “place” of global modernism—and Rubén
Darío. In the essay “Walt Whitman,” Gómez Carrillo questions Darío’s reading of the
US poet and, implicitly, the relation that modernismo has to establish with this
forefather. The essay opens with a dedication to Darío that is at once an homage
and a challenge, followed by a footnote explaining that the text is a response to
Darío’s poem “Walt Whitman” (published in Azul): “Este artículo fue escrito, cuando
W. Whitman vivía aún, en respuesta al siguiente soneto de Rubén Darío” (51) (“This
article was written while W. Whitman was still living, in response to the following
sonnet by Rubén Darío”). The footnote then quotes Darío’s poem in its entirety
before concluding: “Para el poeta de Azul, en efecto, Whitman es un cantor del
porvenir, mientras que para mí es el cantor de un pasado fabuloso” (51-52) (“For
the poet of Azul, in effect, Whitman is a voice of the future, while for me he is
the voice of a fabulous past”). The opening lines of the essay itself reiterate the
challenge to Darío: “El viejo cantor yankee de Leaves of Grass y de Drum Taps vive
aún. Su voz, empero, ya no suena en nuestros oídos como una voz contemporánea, ni
siquiera como una voz moderna, sino como el eco lejano y vibrante de una raza
antiquísima. Más que un poeta de este siglo, parece un bardo anterior a la era de
Jesús” (51)

Monsieur Edouard de Morsier tiene razón. Los escritores de raza latina ya no saben
“contar.” La historieta sencilla, fresca y amable, la buena historieta que nació en
Roma y que entretuvo a nuestros abuelos, ha emigrado desde hace muchos lustros de
los países meridionales, para refugiarse entre la bruma fría del Norte. Los cuentos
italianos, franceses o españoles de esta época, son epigramas rápidos que provocan
sonrisas maliciosas, o novelas abreviadas que conmueven de un modo intenso, pero ya
no son cuentos en el verdadero sentido de la palabra. Los cuentos alemanes, en
cambio, son relatos seguidos que comienzan diciendo: “éste era un rey” y que
terminan por una consideración filosófica o moral. Pablo Heyse es una
prueba de lo que digo. Leed una de sus geschichtes después de haber leído una
nouvelle de Maupassant, y notaréis sin dificultad la diferencia literaria que hoy
existe entre la narración bárbara y el relato romántico. (“Cuentista aléman” 31-32)

For Gómez Carrillo, world literature was not a means to an emancipatory

es el medio mejor de libertarse de la tiranía de algunas de ellas.” World
literature was a transcultural field of aesthetic exchanges in which power
relations of canonicity were rarely altered.

The idea of Li Tai-pe as a precursor of Baudelaire and Darío (who quotes the
Chinese poet in his “Divagación,” which I analyze in chapter 4) bears a striking
resemblance to Borges’s hypothesis in “Kafka y sus precursores” (“Kafka and His
Predecessors”) (1951): literary genealogies are formed retrospectively, determining
the endpoint’s aesthetic traits and inventing a tradition for it. For Borges, the
past does not influence the present but the other way around: the true meaning and
beauty of Zeno of Elea, Han Yu, and Kierkegaard emerge only in light of Kafka’s
literature.

Mora’s harsh criticism reveals, on the one hand, the radical horizon of Sanín
Cano’s literary cosmopolitanism when compared to the narrowness of the modernista’s
universalist doxa. On the other, it shows the threat that cosmopolitan subject
positions posed to an intellectual field that tolerated only rather predictable
forms of aesthetic cosmopolitanism, understood as the appropriation of a well-known
European archive of names, tropes, and poetic genres. But when writers like Sanín
Cano (and, at times, Gómez Carrillo) went beyond the limits of the familiar into
markedly foreign and unexplored corners of world literature, they were condemned
and deemed suspicious;

What I find provocative and original in Sanín Cano’s world literary demand is the
articulation of literary cosmopolitanism as a question of, again, healing the self-

Sanín Cano’s world literature now had an entirely different configuration. Instead
of the world as a globe of aesthetic difference whose unity and universality was
defined in opposition to Latin America’s banal provincial particularism, it had the
form of an aggregate of national literatures that contributed their cultural and
aesthetic difference to the totality of the system. If minor literatures could not
compete on the uneven global playing field where established traditions reproduce
their privileged positions on the backs of consolidated institutions and extended
hegemonic consent, Brandes suggested a different account of the place of minor
literatures in world literature to Sanín Cano. If the contours of this atlas were
drawn from critical values oriented by the global readership and circulation of a
given text, then the hegemonic relation between the powerful and the marginal
remained untouched. But if the map was designed in accordance with a cosmopolitan
(or rather, cosmonational) appreciation of the sociocultural singularity expressed
in works emerging from the different nations of the world, minor and major
literatures now stood on equal grounds, since their value was measured by the
potential to make unique but formally equal contributions to the global whole.

In the previous chapter I proposed that, notwithstanding their importance,


universalist and world literary drives were second to a predominant
particularistic-regionalist discourse within the modernista imaginary. In Darío’s
writing, however, these proportions are somewhat altered in favor of the universal,
especially in the period between 1893 and 1905. This period begins with Darío’s
arrival in Buenos Aires and the writing of the poems and essays that will comprise
Prosas profanas (Profane Hymns) (1896) and Los raros (1896), and it ends with the
publication in Madrid of Cantos de vida y esperanza (Songs of Life and Hope) in
1905, in which he effectively repositions himself in relation to his past (“Yo soy
aquel que ayer nomás decía” [231] [“I am the one who just yesterday spoke”;
Selected Poems 161]), assesses the opening verse of the book’s first poem) and
closes the first chapter of his cyclothymic relation with Paris and French culture.
During this period Darío invented an expansive poetic subjectivity that can be
described as cosmopolitan, even if that cosmopolitanism needs to be qualified.

Sylvia Molloy has characterized this poetic subject as “un yo voraz que, al

transformarlos en aspectos de ese yo” (“Conciencia” 449) (“A voracious ‘I’ that, as
it projects itself into places and people, strips them of their own characteristics
to turn them into aspects of that ‘I’”). Molloy does not link the voracious
eagerness of this poetic “I” to local or global objects and places, but her
conceptualization opens up the possibility of metapho- rizing cosmopolitan desire
in the figure of hunger for the world.

Darío’s passion is for a controlled strangeness that does not destabilize the
modernist subject in formation. Instead of exploring the cosmopolitan questions and
problems behind Darío’s enthusiasm for all things French, critics have tended to
view it as a form of neocolonial subjection, to the point that, from that
perspective, cosmopolitanism becomes a mask for colonial mimicry. This
misunderstanding has its origins in discussions of modernismo contemporary to
Darío’s literary production and is crystallized in a polemical exchange between him
and José Rodó.

His universal Francophilia, I believe, must be read as the horizon of modernismo’s


worldly imagination. The fact that “France” was the signifier of choice is already
a commonplace in Latin American cultural history, and it suffices to say that the
semantic privilege that “France” enjoyed from the Hispanic colonies’ independence
until the end of World War II should be understood as a double transatlantic
operation. On the one hand, France—as a cultural formation that spoke the language
of modernity in the most compelling terms—represented its particularity as
identical to the universality of modernity (for example, Victor Hugo wrote that
“[Paris] falls drop by drop upon humanity and everywhere leaves its impression”;
qtd. in Casanova 89). On the other, Latin American intellectuals affirmed and
reproduced this cultural truism without questioning its essentialist premises. For
Darío (and most modernistas), French poetry was always already modern and
universal, and its modern-universal nature did not need to be questioned . His
examples of modern universality are Hugo and Verlaine. Darío wrote in “El Dios Hugo
y la América Latina” (“Hugo the God and Latin America”) that Hugo had conquered the
globe: “No ha vuelto a verse después de Hugo, un espíritu de poder tan universal.
El conquistó el globo. Su nombre llegó luminoso a todas partes, casi como entre un
soplo legendario. . . . En China, en la India, en países lejanos de extrañas
civilizaciones y razas distintas, la gloria del poeta hizo vibrar algunos rayos”

However, I want to add a Lacanian interpretative layer regarding the notion of gozo
(enjoyment), which Darío could not have intended but which can further illuminate
the meaning of Paris for the Latin American modernistas. What happens if we read
gozo as jouissance? Jouissance, explains Lacan, is the experience of pain that
results from an attempt to satisfy a drive in the form of a demand that can never
be met, and thus jouissance points to the transgression of the prohibition
established by the emergence of the Law in Freud’s pleasure principle (Ethics of
Psychoanalysis 177, 194, 209).

Jouissance, then, is the painful, damned pleasure of violating the prohibition to


enjoy oneself and get close to the Thing, the forbidden and unattainable object of
desire (which Lacan will call objet petit a after 1963), which is so loaded with
the promise of enjoyment that it becomes unbearable for the subject (Other Side
17).

Darío himself thought of “Divagación” as a “curso de geografía erótica” (“course in


erotic geography”) and an “invitación al amor bajo todos los soles, la pasión de
todos los colores y de todos los tiempos” (Vida 145) (“invitation to love under all
suns, the passion of all colors and all times”). Critics have followed his lead,
reading the opening “¿Vienes?” as a sexual invitation but disregarding his

Groussac’s intellectual trajectory is unique in nineteenth-century Latin American


letters.15 His notable rise to power has to be attributed to determination, talent,
and good fortune. Coming to Argentina at the age of eighteen without a degree,
credentials, or any knowledge of the Spanish language, he worked on a cattle ranch
and as a tutor for patrician families. In 1871, solely on the basis of an essay on
José de Espronceda that Groussac had published in Revista Argentina that same year,
Nicolás Avellaneda, minister of education and future president, appointed him
school inspector for the province of Tucumán. The Argentine cultural field, like
Groussac himself, perceived his French origin in terms of Derrida’s “metaphysics of
presence”: origin as the a priori essence that determines an ontological privilege
that, in a circular movement, authorizes the very hierarchies that give rise to an
imagination of origins and originality.16 Groussac was never dismissed as a
foreigner when he lectured on national culture.17 Quite the opposite, he was
listened to even more carefully because he was French.18

Groussac does not waste time, moving swiftly on to what he sees as the most
important conceptual issue at stake in Darío’s relation to the French maudits, the
question of imitation: “Lo peor del caso presente, lo repito, es que el autor de
Los raros celebra la grandeza de sus mirmidones con una sinceridad afligente, y ha
llegado a imitarlos en castellano con desesperante perfección. Es lo que me mueve a
dirigirle estas observaciones, cuyo acento afectuoso no se le escapará” (475) (“The
worst part of the present case, I repeat, is that the author of Los raros
celebrates the magnificence of his Myrmidons with distressing sincerity, and
imitates them in Castilian with infuriating perfection. This is what moves me to
make these observations, whose affectionate accent will not be lost on him”). The
emphasis on imitation is not an indictment of Darío’s personal inability to produce
an original aesthetic project autonomous from an immature French infatuation but
rather and once again a cultural symptom of the degraded conditions that inhibit
art making in Latin America. To Groussac, imitation is the only productive device
in a region condemned to a Platonic, parasitic, mimetic existence on the margins of
the universal whose culture can only aspire to reflect truly original modern
cultural formations.

Darío wrote it directly in French under the original title “Ode à La France,” to be
read in his absence by Madeleine Roche—an actress of La Comédie Française—at a
gathering organized by the Comité France-Amérique on June 25, 1914, to celebrate
the Comité’s fifth anniversary (Saavedra Molina 106). The poem portrays France as
the last ray of hope—“Car la France sera toujours notre espérance” (“France-
Amérique” 337) (“Because France will always be our hope”)—for a cosmopolitan peace
based on the French concept of universal fraternité on the eve of World War I:
“Crions Paix! sous les feux des combattants en marche . . . / Crions: Fraternité!”
(337) (“We cry Peace! Under the fire of marching fighters . . . / We cry:
Brotherhood!”). By writing it directly in French, Darío per- forms—rather than just
enunciates—his faithful attachment to France as the horizon of modern cosmopolitan
cultural practices, “le foyer béni de tout le genre humain” (337) (“the blessed
home of all mankind”).

“On clame: Liberté! Et nous traduisons: France!”: we translate France, for and in

The exhibition, however, is full of tourists. Darío despises them, in part because
he is afraid of being confused with them. They cannot appreciate what he, as a
poet, sees in the modern plethora of Paris. Darío strolls through streets, gardens,
and buildings that belong to him because he has thought, read, written, and dreamed
about them. In contrast, the tourists, who are strange and foreign to the universal
modernity of Paris, cannot blend in: “Allí va la familia provinciana que viene a la

worthwhile centuries and decades earlier: “Lo exterior, la cultura, el barniz es,

Buenos Aires, men live the same way, dress the same way, speak the same way, and,
on general issues, think more or less the same way, refining their ideas according
to the same intellectual fashions”). Traveling is pointless in a world where the
globalization of modernity prevents the experience of difference in terms of
everyday life, embodied culture, and intellectual discourse.

The cultural politics of orientalist exoticism has a prominent place in imaginaries


of modernismo; almost every major Latin American modernist writer has constructed
poems or fictions around Orientalist tropes, a collection that includes Del Casal’s
poems “Kakemono,” “Sourinomo,” and “Japonerías” (“Japonaiseries”), Darío’s short
stories “La muerte de la emperatriz de China” (“The Death of the Empress of China”)
and “El rey burgués” (“The Bourgeois King”), Asunción Silva’s De sobremesa (After-
Dinner Conversation), and Nervo’s poems in El estanque de los lotos (The Lotus
Pond) and essays “Las crisantemas” (“The Chrysanthemums”) and “El dragón chino”
(“The Chinese Dragon”), among others.8 As I have already pointed out, Gómez
Carrillo actively participates in this discursive formation even to a larger extent
than most other modernistas. For this reason, it is particularly interesting that
his first reaction upon descending to the streets of Saigon is a sense of
familiarity.

Doris Sommer has lucidly read Jewishness as the signifier of the social, political,

“Jewishness is a Protean stigma that damns the characters one way or another: as an
enfeebled inbreeding ‘aristocracy’ like the planters and as a racially different

Isaacs’ vehicle for representing a dead-end for the planter class” (Foundational

Left coincides with the steady growth of the entirely non-Marxian conviction,
proclaimed by Mao Tse-tung, that “Power grows out of the barrel of a gun.” To be
sure, Marx was aware of the role of violence in history, but this role was to him
secondary; not violence but the contradictions inherent in the old society
brought about its end. The emergence of a new society was preceded, but not caused,
by violent outbreaks, which he likened to the labor pangs that precede, but of
course do not cause, the event of organic birth. In the same vein he regarded the
state as an instrument of violence in the command of the ruling class; but the
actual power of the ruling class did not consist of or rely on violence. It
was defined by the role the ruling class played in society, or, more exactly, by
its role in the process of production. It has often been noticed, and sometimes
deplored, that the revolutionary Left under the influence of Marx’s teachings ruled
out the use of violent means; the “dictatorship of the proletariat”—openly
repressive in Marx’s writings—came after the revolution and was meant, like the
Roman dictatorship, to last a strictly limited period. Political assassination,
except for a few acts of individual terror perpetrated by small groups of
anarchists, was mostly the prerogative of the Right, while organized armed
uprisings remained the specialty of the military. The Left remained convinced “that
all conspiracies are not only useless but harmful. 11 They [knew] only too well
that revolutions are not made intentionally and arbitrarily, but that they were
always and everywhere the necessary result of circumstances entirely independent of
the will and guidance of particular parties and whole classes.”14

This shows to what extent Sartre is unaware of his basic disagreement with Marx on
the question of violence, especially when he states that “irrepressible
violence ... is man recreating himself,” that it is through “mad fury” that “the
wretched of the earth” can “become men.” These notions are all the more remarkable
because the idea of man creating himself is strictly in the tradition of Hegelian
and Marxian thinking; it is the very basis of all leftist humanism. But according
to Hegel man “produces” himself through 141 owe this early remark of Engels, in a
manuscript of 1847, to Jacob Barion, Hegel und die marxistische Staatslehre, Bonn,
1963. 12 thought,15 whereas for Marx, who turned Hegel’s “idealism” upside down, it
was labor, the human form of metabolism with nature, that fulfilled this function.
And though one may argue that all notions of man creating himself have in common a
rebellion against the very factuality of the human condition—nothing is more
obvious than that man, whether as member of the species or as an individual, does
not owe his existence to himself— and that therefore what Sartre, Marx, and Hegel
have in common is more relevant than the particular activities through which this
non-fact should presumably have come about, still it cannot be denied that a gulf
separates the essentially peaceful activities of thinking and laboring from all
deeds of violence. “To shoot down a European is to kill two birds with one
stone . . . there remain a dead man and a free man,” says Sartre in his preface.
This is a sentence Marx could never have written.16

and relatively harmless enterprises. Students struck successfully against campus
authorities who were paying employees in the cafeteria and in buildings and grounds
less than the legal minimum. The decision of the Berkeley students to join the
fight for transforming an empty university-owned lot into a “People's Park" should
be counted among these enterprises, even though it provoked the worst reaction so
far from the authorities. To judge from the Berkeley incident, it seems that
precisely such “nonpolitical" actions unify the student body behind a radical
vanguard. “A student referendum, which saw the heaviest turnout in the history of
student voting, found 85 percent of the nearly 15,000 who voted favoring the use of
the lot" as a people’s park. See the excellent report by Sheldon Wolin and
John Schaar, “Berkeley: The Battle of People’s Park," New York Review of Books,

limitation might well lead to a lowering of university standards.26 The only thing
this divorce is not likely to lead to is a general withdrawal of federal funds;
for, as Jerome Lettvin, of M.I.T., recently pointed out, “The Government can’t
afford not to support us” 27—just as the universities cannot afford not to accept
federal funds; but this means no more than that they “must learn how to
sterilize financial support” (Henry Steele Commager), a difficult but not
impossible task in view of the enormous increase of the power of universities in
modern societies.) In short, the seemingly irresistible proliferation of techniques
and machines, far from only threatening certain classes with unemployment, menaces
the existence of whole nations and conceivably of all mankind.

The question remains why so many of the new preachers of violence are unaware of
their decisive disagreement with Karl Marx’s teachings, or, to put it another way,
why they cling with such stubborn tenacity to concepts and doctrines that have not
only been refuted by factual developments but are clearly inconsistent with their
own politics. The one positive political slogan the new movement has put forth, the
claim for “participatory democracy” that has echoed around the globe and
constitutes the most significant common denominator of the rebellions in the East
and the West, derives from the best in the revolutionary tradition—the council
system, the always defeated but only authentic outgrowth of every revolution since
the eighteenth century. But no reference to this goal either in word or substance
can be found in the teachings of Marx and Lenin, both of whom aimed on the
contrary at a society in which the need for public action and participation in
public affairs would have “withered away,”88

The notion that there is such a thing as progress of mankind as a whole was unknown
prior to the seventeenth century, developed into a rather common opinion among the
eighteenth-century hommes de lettres, and became an almost universally accepted
dogma in the nineteenth. But the difference between the earlier notions and their
final stage is decisive. The seventeenth century, in this respect best represented
by Pascal and Fontenelle, thought of progress in terms of an accumulation of
knowledge through the centuries, whereas for the eighteenth the word implied an
“education of mankind” (Lessing’s Erziehung des Men-schengeschlechts) whose end
would coincide with man’s coming of age. Progress was not unlimited, and
Marx’s classless society seen as the realm of freedom that could be the end of
history—often interpreted as a secularization —of Christian eschatology or Jewish
messianism—actually still bears the hallmark of the Age of Enlightenment.

Now, in the words of Proudhon, motion is “le fait primitif” and “the laws of
movement alone are eternal.” This movement has neither beginning nor end: “Le
mouvement. est; voila tout!” As to man, all we can say is “we are born perfectible,
but we shall never be perfect.”43 Marx’s idea, borrowed from Hegel, that every old
society harbors the seeds of its successors in the same way every living organism
harbors the seeds of its offspring is indeed not only the most ingenious but
also the only possible conceptual guarantee for the sempiternal continuity of
progress in history; and since the motion of this progress is supposed to come
about through the clashes of antagonistic forces, it is possible to interpret every
“regress” as a necessary but temporary setback.

And if one leaves this out of account and thinks only in generalities, there is the
obvious argument against progress that, in the words of Herzen, “Human development
is a form of chronological unfairness, since late-comers are able to profit by the
labors of their predecessors without paying the same price,”44 or, in the words of
Kant, “It will always remain bewildering . . . that the earlier generations seem to
carry on their burdensome business only for the sake of the later . . . and that
only the last should have the good fortune to dwell in the [completed] building.”
7 However, these disadvantages, which were only rarely noticed, are more than
outweighed by an enormous advantage: progress not only explains the past without
breaking up the time continuum but it can serve as a guide for acting into the
future. This is what Marx discovered when he turned Hegel upside down: he changed
the direction of the historian’s glance; instead of looking toward the past, he now
could confidently look into the future.

Since we are concerned here primarily with violence, I must warn against a tempting

chronological process, whose progress, moreover, is inevitable, violence in the
shape of war and revolution may appear to constitute the only possible
interruption. If this were true, if only the practice of violence would make it
possible to interrupt automatic processes in the realm of human affairs, the

the disruptive student activities in the last few years are actually based on this

Conversely, a strong disinclination to obey is often accompanied by an equally


strong disinclination to dominate and command. Historically speaking, the ancient
institution of slave economy would be inexplicable on the grounds of
Mill’s psychology. Its express purpose was to liberate citizens from the burden of
household affairs and to permit them to enter the public life of the community,
where all were equals; if it were true that nothing is sweeter than to
give commands and to rule others, the master would never have left his household.

or the Romans spoke of the civitas as their form of government, they had in mind a
concept of power and law whose essence did not rely on the command-obedience
relationship and which did not identify power and rule or law and command. It was
to these examples that the men of the eighteenth-century revolutions turned when
they ransacked the archives of antiquity and constituted a form of government, a

end to the rule of man over man, which they thought was a “government fit for

the strength of opinion, that is, the power of the government, depends on numbers;
it is “in proportion to the number with which it is associated,” 3 and tyranny, as
Montesquieu discovered, is therefore the most violent and least powerful of forms
of government. Indeed one of the most obvious distinctions between power and
violence is that power always stands in need of numbers, whereas violence up to a
point can manage without them because it relies on implements. A legally
unrestricted majority rule, that is, a democracy without a constitution, can be
very formidable in the suppression of the rights of minorities and very effective
in the suffocation of dissent without any use of violence. But that does not mean
that violence and power are the same.

Power corresponds to the human ability not just to act but to act in concert. Power
is never the property of an individual; it belongs to a group and remains in
existence only so long as the group keeps together. When we say of somebody that he
is “in power” we actually refer to his being empowered by a certain number of
people to act in their name. The moment the group, from which the power originated
to begin with (potestas in populo, without a people or group there is no power),
disappears, “his power” also vanishes. In current usage, when we speak of a
“powerful man” or a “powerful personality,” we already use the word “power”

Strength unequivocally designates something in the singular, an individual entity;


it is the property inherent in an object or person and belongs to its character,
which may prove itself in relation to other things or persons, but is essentially
independent of them. The strength of even the strongest individual can always be
overpowered by the many, who often will combine for no other purpose than to ruin
strength precisely because of its peculiar independence. The almost instinctive
hostility of the many toward the one has always, from Plato to Nietzsche,
been ascribed to resentment, to the envy of the weak for the strong, but this
psychological interpretation misses the point. It is in the nature of a group and
its power to turn against independence, the property of individual strength.

Authority, relating to the most elusive of these phenomena and therefore, as a


term, most frequently abused,60 can be vested in persons—there is such a thing as
personal authority, as, for instance, in the relation between parent and child,
between teacher and pupil—or it can be vested in offices, as, for instance, in the
Roman senate (auctoritas in senatu) or in the hierarchical offices of the Church
(a priest can grant valid absolution even though he is drunk). Its hallmark is
unquestioning recognition by those who are asked to obey; neither coercion nor
persuasion is needed. (A father can lose his authority either by beating his
child or by starting to argue with him, that is, either by behaving to him like a
tyrant or by treating him as an equal.) To remain in authority requires respect for
the person or the office. The greatest enemy of authority, therefore, is contempt,
and the surest way to undermine it is laughter.67

87Wolin and Schaar, in op. cit., are entirely right: “The rules are being broken
because University authorities, administrators and faculty alike, have lost the
respect of many of the students.” They then conclude, “When authority leaves, power
enters.” This too is true, but, I am afraid, not quite in the sense they meant it.
What entered first at Berkeley was student power, obviously the strongest power on
every campus simply because of the students' superior numbers.

Violence, finally, as I have said, is distinguished by its instrumental character.


Phenomenologically, it is close to strength, since the implements of violence, like
all other tools, are designed and used for the purpose of multiplying natural

Still it must be admitted that it is particularly tempting to think of power in


terms of command and obedience, and hence to equate power with violence, in a
discussion of what actually is only one of power’s special cases— namely, the power
of government. Since in foreign relations as well as domestic affairs violence
appears as a last resort to keep the power structure intact against individual
challengers—the foreign enemy, the native criminal —it looks indeed as though
violence were the prerequisite of power and power nothing but a facade, the velvet
glove which either conceals the iron hand or will turn out to belong to a paper
tiger. On closer inspection, though, this notion loses much of its plausibility.
For our purpose, the gap between theory and reality is perhaps best illustrated by
the phenomenon of revolution.

Where commands are no longer obeyed, the means of violence are of no use; and the
question of this obedience is not decided by the command-obedience relation but

Where power has disintegrated, revolutions are possible but not necessary. We know
of many instances when utterly impotent regimes were permitted to continue
in existence for long periods of time—either because there was no one to test their
strength and reveal their weakness or because they were lucky enough not to be
engaged in war and suffer defeat. Disintegration often becomes manifest only in
direct confrontation; and even then, when power is already in the street, some
group of men prepared for such an eventuality is needed to pick it up and assume
responsibility. We have recently witnessed how it did not take more than the
relatively harmless, essentially nonviolent French students’ rebellion to reveal
the vulnerability of the whole political system, which rapidly disintegrated before
the astonished eyes of the young rebels. Unknowingly they had tested it; they
intended only to challenge the ossified university system, and down came the system

The end of war—end taken in its twofold meaning—is peace or victory; but to the
question And what is the end of peace? there is no answer. Peace is an absolute,
even though in recorded history periods of warfare have nearly always
outlasted periods of peace. Power is in the same category; it is, as they say, “an
end in itself.” (This, of course, is not to deny that governments pursue policies
and employ their power to achieve prescribed goals. But the power structure itself
precedes and outlasts all aims, so that power, far from being the means to an end,

In a head-on clash between violence and power, the outcome is hardly in doubt. If
Gandhi’s enormously powerful and successful strategy of nonviolent resistance had
met with a different enemy—Stalin’s Russia, Hitler’s Germany, even prewar Japan,
instead of England—the outcome would not have been decolonization, but massacre and
submission. However, England in India and France in Algeria had good reasons for
their restraint. Rule by sheer violence comes into play where power is being lost;
it is precisely the shrinking power of the Russian government, internally and
externally, that became manifest in its “solution” of the Czechoslovak problem-just
as it was the shrinking power of European imperialism that became manifest in the
alternative between decolonization and massacre. To substitute violence for power
can bring victory, but the price is very high; for it is not only paid by the
vanquished, it is also paid by the victor in terms of his own power.

Terror is not the same as violence; it is, rather, the form of government that
comes into being when violence, having destroyed all power, does not abdicate but,
on the contrary, remains in full control. It has often been noticed that the
effectiveness of terror depends almost entirely on the degree of social
atomization. Every kind of organized opposition must disappear before the full
force of terror can be let loose. This atomization— an outrageously pale, academic
word for the horror it implies—is maintained and intensified through the ubiquity
of the informer, who can be literally omnipresent because he no longer is merely a
professional agent in the pay of the police but potentially every person one

The decisive difference between totalitarian domination, based on terror, and

To sum up: politically speaking, it is insufficient to say that power and violence
are not the same. Power and violence are opposites; where the one rules absolutely,
the other is absent. Violence appears where power is in jeopardy, but left to its
own course it ends in power’s disappearance. This implies that it is not correct to
think of the opposite of violence as nonviolence; to speak of nonviolent power is
actually redundant. Violence can destroy power; it is utterly incapable of creating

Hegel’s and Marx’s great trust in the dialectial “power of negation,” by virtue of
which opposites do not destroy but smoothly develop into each other because
contradictions promote and do not paralyze development, rests on a much
older philosophical prejudice: that evil is no more than a privative modus of the
good, that good can come out of evil; that, in short, evil is but a temporary
manifestation of a still-hidden good. Such time-honored opinions have become
dangerous. They are shared by many who have never heard of Hegel or Marx, for the
simple reason that they inspire hope and dispel fear—a treacherous hope used
to dispel legitimate fear. By this, I do not mean to equate violence with evil; I

power, and that in order to understand it for what it is, we shall have to examine
its roots and nature.

That violence often springs from rage is a commonplace, and rage can indeed be
irrational and pathological, but so can every other human affect. It is no doubt
possible to create conditions under which men are dehumanized—such as concentration
camps, torture, famine—but this does not mean that they become animal-like;
and under such conditions, not rage and violence, but their conspicuous absence is
the clearest sign of dehumanization. Rage is by no means an automatic reaction to
misery and suffering as such; no one reacts with rage to an incurable disease or to
an earthquake or, for that matter, to social conditions that seem to be
unchangeable. Only where there is reason to suspect that conditions could be
changed and are not does rage arise. Only when our sense of justice is offended do
we react with rage, and this reaction by no means necessarily reflects personal
injury, as is demonstrated by the whole history of revolution, where invariably
members of the upper classes touched off and then led the rebellions of the
oppressed and downtrodden.

Billy Budd, striking dead the man who bore false witness against him, is the

goes with it belong among the “natural” human emotions, and to cure man of them
would mean nothing less than to dehumanize or emasculate him. That such acts, in
which men take the law into their own hands for justice’s sake, are in
conflict with the constitutions of civilized communities is undeniable; but their
antipolitical character, so manifest in Melville’s great story, does not mean that
they are inhuman or “merely” emotional. Absence of emotions neither causes nor
promotes rationality. “Detachment and equanimity” in view of “unbearable tragedy”

In order to respond reasonably one must first of all be “moved,” and the opposite
of emotional is not “rational,” whatever that may mean, but either the inability to
be moved, usually a pathological phenomenon, or sentimentality, which is a
perversion of feeling. Rage and violence turn irrational only when they are

Not many authors of rank glorified violence for violence’s sake; but these few—
Sorel, Pareto, Fanon—were motivated by a much deeper hatred of bourgeois society
and were led to a much more radical break with its moral standards than the
conventional Left, which was chiefly inspired by compassion and a burning desire
for justice. To tear the mask of hypocrisy from the 65 face of the enemy, to unmask
him and the devious machinations and manipulations that permit him to rule without
using violent means, that is, to provoke action even at the risk of annihilation so
that the truth may come out—these are still among the strongest motives in today’s
violence on the campuses and in the streets.85 And this violence again is not
irrational. Since men live in a world of appearances and, in their dealing with it,

The enormous growth of productivity in the modern world was by no means due to an
increase in the workers’ productivity, but exclusively the development of

but on the scientists. The “intellectuals,” much despised by Sorel and Pareto,
suddenly ceased to be a marginal social group and emerged as a new elite, whose
work, having changed the conditions of human life almost beyond recognition in a
few decades, has remained essential for the functioning of society. There are
many reasons why this new group has not, or not yet, developed into a power elite,

to cultural traditions, of which the revolutionary tradition is one, they cling
with greater tenacity to categories of the past that prevent them from
understanding the present and their own role in it. It is often touching to watch
with what nostalgic sentiments the most rebellious of our students expect the

And this seemingly so novel biological justification of violence is again closely


connected with the most pernicious elements in our oldest traditions of political
thought. According to the traditional concept of power, equated, as we saw, with
violence, power is expansionist by nature. It “has an inner urge to grow,” it is
creative because “the instinct of growth is proper to it.” 100 Just as in the
realm of organic life everything either grows or declines and dies, so in the realm
of human affairs power supposedly can sustain itself only through expansion;
otherwise it shrinks and dies. “That which stops growing begins to rot,” goes a
Russian saying from the entourage of Catherine the Great.

Nothing, in my opinion, could be theoretically more dangerous than the tradition of


organic thought in political matters by which power and violence are interpreted
in biological terms. As these terms are understood today, life and life’s alleged
creativity are their common denominator, so that violence is justified on the
ground of creativity. The organic metaphors with which our entire present
discussion of these matters, especially of the riots, is permeated —the notion of a
“sick society,** of which riots are symptoms, as fever is a symptom of disease—can
only promote violence in the end. Thus the debate between those who propose violent
means to restore “law and order** and those who propose nonviolent reforms begins
to sound ominously like a discussion between two physicians who debate the relative
advantages of surgical as opposed to medical treatment of their patient. The sicker
the patient is supposed to be, the more likely that the surgeon will have the last
word. Moreover, so long as we talk in nonpolitical, biological terms, the
glorifiers of violence can appeal to the undeniable fact that in the household
of nature destruction and creation are but two sides of the natural process, so
that collective violent action, quite apart from its inherent attraction, may
appear as natural a prerequisite for the collective life of mankind as the struggle
for survival and violent death for continuing life in the animal kingdom.

Behavior and arguments in interest conflicts are not notorious for their
“rationality.” Nothing, unfortunately, has so constantly been refuted by reality as
the credo of “enlightened self-interest,” in its literal version as well as 104
Ibidem. 105 Ibidem. See also the excellent article “Official Interpretation
of Racial Riots" by Allan A. Silver in the same collection. 106 See appendix
XVII, p. 101. 77 in its more sophisticated Marxian variant. Some experience plus a
little reflection teach, on the contrary, that it goes against the very nature of
self-interest to be enlightened. To take as an example from everyday life
the current interest conflict between tenant and landlord: enlightened interest
would focus on a building fit for human habitation, but this interest is quite
different from, and in most cases opposed to, the landlord’s self-interest in high
profit and the tenant’s in low rent. The common answer of an arbiter, supposedly
the spokesman of “enlightenment,” namely, that in the long run the interest of the
building is the true interest of both landlord and tenant, leaves out of account
the time factor, which is of paramount importance for all concerned. Self-interest
is interested in the self, and the self dies or moves out or sells the house;
because of its changing condition, that is, ultimately because of the human
condition of mortality, the self qua self cannot reckon in terms of long-range
interest, i.e. the interest of a world that survives its inhabitants. Deterioration
of the building is a matter of years; a rent increase or a temporarily lower profit
rate are for today or for tomorrow. And something similar, mu-tatis mutandis, is of
course true for labor-management conflicts and the like. Self-interest, when asked
to yield to “true” interest—that is, the interest of the world as distinguished
from that of the self-will always reply, Near is my shirt, but nearer is my skin.
That may not be particularly reasonable, but it is quite realistic; it is the
not very noble but adequate response to the time discrepancy between men’s private
lives and the altogether different life expectancy of the public world. To expect
people, who have not the slightest notion of what the publica, the public thing,
is, to behave nonviolently and argue rationally in matters of interest is neither
realistic nor reasonable.

Moreover, the danger of violence, even if it moves consciously within a


nonextremist framework of short-term goals, will always be that the means
overwhelm the end. If goals are not achieved rapidly, the result will be not merely
defeat but the introduction of the practice of violence into the whole body
politic. Action is irreversible, and a return to the status quo in case of defeat
is always unlikely. The practice of violence, like all action, changes the world,
but the most probable change is to a more violent world.

Finally—to come back to Sorel’s and Pareto's earlier denunciation of the system as
such—the greater the bureaucratization of public life, the greater will be the
attraction of violence. In a fully developed bureaucracy there is nobody left with
whom one can argue, to whom one can present grievances, on whom the pressures
of power can be exerted. Bureaucracy is the form of government in which everybody
is deprived of political freedom, of the power to act; for the rule by Nobody is
not no-rule, and where all are equally powerless we have a tyranny without a
tyrant. The crucial feature in the student rebellions around the world is that they
are directed everywhere against the ruling bureaucracy.

This explains what at first glance seems so disturbing—that the rebellions in the
East demand precisely those freedoms of speech and thought that the young rebels in
the West say they despise as irrelevant. On the level of ideologies, the
whole thing is confusing; it is much less so if we start from the obvious fact that
the huge party machines have succeeded everywhere in overruling the voice of the
citizens, even in countries where freedom of speech and association is
still intact. The dissenters and resisters in the East demand free speech and
thought as the preliminary conditions for political action; the rebels in the West
live under conditions where these preliminaries no longer open the channels for
action, for the meaningful exercise of freedom. What matters to them is, indeed,
“Praxisentzug” the suspension of action, as Jens Litten, a German student,
has aptly called it.110 The transformation of government into administration, or of
republics into bureaucracies, and the disastrous shrinkage of the public realm that
went with it have a long and complicated history throughout the modern age; and
this process has been considerably 110 See appendix XVIII, p. 102. 81 accelerated

What makes man a political being is his faculty of action; it enables him to get
together with his peers, to act in concert, and to reach out for goals and
enterprises that would never enter his mind, let alone the desires of his heart,
had he not been given this gift—to embark on something new. Philosophically
speaking, to act is the human answer to the condition of natality. Since we all
come into the world by virtue of birth, as newcomers and beginnings, we are able to
start something new; without the fact of birth we would not even know what novelty
is, all “action” would be either mere behavior or preservation. No other faculty
except language, neither reason nor consciousness, distinguishes us so radically
from all animal species. To act and to begin are not the same, but they are closely
interconnected.

Whatever the administrative advantages and disadvantages of centralization may be,


its political result is always the same: monopolization of power causes the drying

States, based on a great plurality of powers and their mutual checks and balances,
we are confronted not merely with the disintegration of power structures, but with
power, seemingly still intact and free to manifest itself, losing its grip and
becoming ineffective. To speak of the impotence of power is no longer a witty

There are other examples to demonstrate the curious contradictions inherent in


impotence of power. Because of the enormous effectiveness of teamwork in the
sciences, which is perhaps the outstanding American contribution to modern science,
we can control the most complicated processes with a precision that makes trips to
the moon less dangerous than ordinary weekend excursions; but the allegedly
“greatest power on earth” is helpless to end a war, clearly disastrous for all
concerned, in one of the earth’s smallest countries. It is as though we have
fallen under a fairyland spell which permits us to do the “impossible” on the
condition that we lose the capacity of doing the possible, to achieve fantastically
extraordinary feats on the condition of no longer being able to attend properly to
our everyday needs. If power has anything to do with the we-an'W-and-we-can, as
distinguished from the mere we-can, then we have to admit that our power has become
impotent. The progresses made by science have nothing to do with the I-will; they
follow their own inexorable laws, compelling us to do whatever we can, regardless
of consequences. Have the I-will and the I-can parted company? Was Valery right
when he said fifty years ago: “On peut dire que tout ce que nous savons, dire
tout ce que nous pouvons, a fini par s’opposer a ce que nous sommes”? (“One can say
that all we know, that is, all we have the power to do, has finally turned
against what we are.”)

The New Left’s unconscious drifting away from Marxism has been duly noticed. See
especially recent comments on the student movement by Leonard Schapiro in the New
York Review of Books (December 5, 1968) and by Raymond Aron in La Revolution In-
trouvable, Paris, 1968. Both consider the new emphasis on violence to be a kind of
backsliding either to pre-Marxian utopian socialism (Aron) or to the Russian
anarchism of Nechaev and Bakunin (Schapiro), who “had much to say about the
importance of violence as a factor of unity, as the binding force in a society or
group, r 89 century before the same ideas emerged in the works of Jean-Paul Sartre
and Frantz Fanon." Aron writes in the same vein: “Les chantres de la revolution de
mai croient depasser le marxisme . . . ils oublient un siecle d’histoire” (p. 14).
To a non-Marxist such a reversion would of course hardly be an argument; but for
Sartre, who, for instance, writes “Un pretendu ‘depassement’ du marxisme ne sera au
pis qu’un retour au premarxisme, au mieux que la redecouverte d’une pensee deja
contenue dans la philosophie qufon a cru ddpasser” (“Question de M^thode" in
Critique de la raison dialectique, Paris, i960, p. 17), it must constitute a
formidable objection.

In order to avoid misunderstandings: I quite agree with Stephen Spender that it


would be folly for the students to wreck the universities (although they are the
only ones who could do so effectively for the simple reason that they have numbers,
and therefore real power, on their side), since the campuses constitute not only
their real, but also their only possible basis. “Without the university, there
would be no students” (p. 22). But the universities will remain a basis for the
students only so long as they provide the only place in society where power does
not have the last word—all perversions and hypocrisies to the contrary
notwithstanding. In the present situation, there is a danger that either students
or, as in the case of Berkeley, the powers-that-be will run amuck; if this should
happen, the young rebels would have simply spun one more thread into what has been
aptly called “the pattern of disaster.” (Professor Richard A. Falk, of Princeton.)

Complete subordination means three things First, it is a relationship of


submission, but not submission to a law or a principle of order, and not even to a
reasonable injunction, or to some reasoned principles or conclusions It is a
relationship of the submission of one individual to another The relationship of
submission of one individual to another individual, correlating an individual who
directs and an individual who is directed, is not only a condition of Christian
obedience, it is its very principle And the person who is directed must accept
submission and obey within this individual relationship and because it is an
individual relationship The Christian puts himself in his pastor’s hands for
spiritual matters, but equally for material things and for everyday life Here
again, the Christian texts constantly take up what is no doubt a passage from the
Psalms, which says "Who is I MF taking not guided falls like a dead leaf”" This is
true for the laity, but of course it is also much more intensely true for monks,
and in this case we see the implementation of the fundamental principle that
Christian obedience is not obedience to a law, a principle, or any rational element
whatsoever, but subordination to someone because he is someone

immediate action without thought We have a series of accounts of this reported by
Cassian in the Cenobite institutes, and which are also found in the The Lausiac
History, ’ such as the test which consists in this As soon as an order is given to
a monk, he must immediately stop whatever he happens to be doing at that time and
carry out the order without wondering why he has been given this order or whether
it wouldn’t be more worthwhile to continue with what he was doing As an example of
this virtue of obedience, he refers to a novice who was copying a text, and even a
text of Holy Scripture, and who interrupted his copying, not at the end of a
paragraph or a sentence, and not even in the middle of a word, but in the middle of
a letter, and who left this letter in suspense in order to obey the stupidest order

Second, it is a relationship that is not finalized, in the sense that when a Greek
entrusted himself to a doctor or a philosopher, it was in order to arrive at a
particular result This result could be knowledge of a craft, or some kind of
perfection, or a cure, and obedience is only the necessary and not always agreeable
route to this result So in Greek obedience, or anyway in the fact that a Greek
submits himself at a given moment to the will or orders of someone, there is always
an objective - health, virtue, the truth - and an end, that is to say there will be
a point when this relationship of obedience is suspended and even turned around
When one submits oneself to a philosophy professor, in Greece, it is in order to
succeed in becoming master of oneself at a certain moment, that is to say to
reverse this relationship of obedience and to become one’s own master1 Now in
Christian obedience, there is no end, for what does Christian obedience lead to? It
leads quite simply to obedience One obeys in order to be obedient, in order to
arrive at a state of obedience I think this notion of a state of obedience is also

towards which the practice of obedience aims is what is called humility, which
consists in feeling oneself the least of men, in taking orders from anyone, thus
continually renewing the relationship of obedience, and above all in renouncing

sins, and it is not merely accepting being given and submitting to the orders given

We could add here (but I will pass over it quickly) tha practice of Christian
obedience, the one who commands, in ' whether abbot or bishop, obviously does not
command in order to because he has been ordered to command. The proof that qualifi
is that he refuses the pastorate for which he is given respons because he does not
want to command, but insofar as his refusal would be the assertion of a particular
will, he must give up his refusal, he must obey, and command. So we have a sort of
generalized field of obedience space in which pastoral relationships are deployed.

Finally third, there is the problem of truth, and here I will be very quick since I
have already spoken about this elsewhere in a different way Here again, expressed
in the most schematic way and if we do not look at it in detail, the relationship
of the pastorate to truth is inscribed in a kind of curve and outline that does not
distinguish it greatly from possible forms of Greek teaching What I mean is that
the pastor has a teaching task vis-à-vis his community We can even say that this is
his primary and principal task In one of the first sentences of the De officiis
ministorum, Saint Ambrose says ‘‘Episcopi proprium munus docere," “the proper
responsibility of the bishop is to teach "" Clearly this teaching task is not one-
dimensional, it is a more complicated affair than just giving a lesson to others
The pastor must teach by his example, by his own life, and what’s more the value of
this example is so strong that if he does not give a good example by his own life,
then any theoretical, verbal teaching he gives will be nullified In the Book of
Pastoral Rule, Saint Gregory says that pastors who teach the good doctrine, but
give a bad example, are a bit like shepherds who drink the clear water but whose
dirty feet muddy the water that the sheep in their charge must drink1 The pastor
also does not teach in a global, general way He does not teach everyone in the same
way, for the minds of the listeners are like the strings of a cithara, which are
stretched differently and cannot be touched in the same way In the Liberpastorahs,
Saint Gregory gives thirty six distinct ways of teaching, according to whether one
is addressing people who are married or single, rich or poor, sick or healthy happy
or sad, and so on 1 All this is far removed from the traditional conception of
teaching But in relation to this there are, I think, two fundamental new things
that continue to characterize the Christian pastorate

First, there is the fact that this teaching must be a direction of daily conduct It
is not just a matter of teaching what one must know and what one must do It is not
just a matter of teaching by general principles, but rather by a daily modulation,
and this teaching must also pass through an observation, a supervision, a direction
exercised at every moment and with the least discontinuity possible over the
sheep’s whole, total conduct The perfection, merit, of quality of daily life must
not be just the result of a general teaching or even of an example The pastor must
really take charge of and observe daily life in order to form a never-ending

The second aspect, which is also very important, is spiritual direction (direction
de conscience)1 That is to say, the pastor must not simply teach the truth He must
direct the conscience What does this mean? Here again, we have to look back a bit
Strictly speaking, the practice of spiritual direction is not a Christian invention
There were forms of spiritual direction in Antiquity,§ but we can describe it, very
schematically, in the following way [First,] spiritual direction in Antiquity is
voluntary, that is to say the person who wishes to be directed finds someone whom
he asks to direct him What’s more, in its very early forms, and even in later
forms, spiritual direction was paid for One saw someone who said I would very much
like to direct you, but you must give me some money The Sophists had spiritual
direction shops on the public square One had to pay for a consultation Second,
spiritual direction in Antiquity was circumstantial, that is to say one did not let
the whole of one’s life be directed or let oneself be directed for all of one’s
life, but one sought out a spiritual director when going through a bad time, or
experiencing a hard and difficult episode If one had suffered bereavement, had lost
one’s children or one’s wife, was ruined, or exiled by a prince, one sought out
19,and 26 March 1980, and in L 'Hermeneutique du suet, lectures of 3 March 1982, pp
345-348, and someone who basically helped as a comforter So, spiritual direction
was voluntary, episodic, consolatory, and at certain times it took place through
the examination of conscience That is to say, direction often involved the director
saying to the person being directed, inviting him, and even constraining him, if
there could be constraint, to examine his own conscience and each day, in the
evening to undertake an examination of what he had done, of the good or bad things
he may have done, of what had happened to him, and, in short, to put the life of
the day, a fragment of life, through the filter of discourse in such a way as to
fix in truth what had happened and the merits, virtue, and progress of the person
thus examined But this examination of conscience had a fundamental aim This was
precisely that the person who examined himself could take control and become master
of himself by knowing exactly what he had done and in what respect he had made
progress It was therefore a condition of self-mastery

Christian practice will involve a completely different spiritual direction and


examination of conscience because, in the first place, spiritual direction will not
exactly be voluntary At any rate, it is not always voluntary, and in the case of
monks, for example, spiritual direction is absolutely obligatory and one has to
have a spiritual director Second, spiritual direction is not circumstantial, it is
not a matter of responding to a misfortune, a crisis, or a difficulty Spiritual
direction is absolutely permanent, and one is directed with regard to everything
and for the whole of one’s life Finally, third, the function of the examination of
conscience, which is really a part" of these instruments of spiritual direction, is
not to assure the individual’s mastery of himself, in compensation, as it were, for
his subordination to the director in this examination On the contrary, it will be
quite the opposite One will only examine one’s conscience in order to tell the
director what one has done, what one is, what one has experienced, the temptations
to which one has been subject, and the bad thoughts that inhabit one’s mind, that
is to say, one examines one’s conscience the better to mark and fix more firmly the
relationship of subordination to the other

So, the Christian pastorate is not fundamentally or essentially characterized by


the relationship to salvation, to the law, and to the truth The Christian pastorate
is, rather, a form of power that, taking the problem of salvation in its general
set of themes, inserts into this global, general relationship an entire economy and
technique of the circulation, transfer, and reversal of merits, and this is its
fundamental point Similarly with regard to the law, Christianity, the Christian
pastorate, is not simply the instrument of the acceptance or generalization of the
law, but rather, through an oblique relationship to the law, as it were, it
establishes a kind of exhaustive, total, and permanent relationship of individual
obedience This is something quite different from the relationship to the law And
finally, if Christianity, the Christian pastor, teaches the truth, if he forces
men, the sheep, to accept a certain truth, the Christian pastorate is also
absolutely innovative in establishing a structure, a technique of, at once, power,
investigation, self-examination, and the examination of others, by which a certain
secret inner truth of the hidden soul becomes the element through which the
pastor’s power is exercised, by which obedience is practiced, by which the
relationship of complete obedience is assured, and through which, precisely, the
economy of merits and faults passes It is not salvation, the law, and the truth,
but these new relationships of merits and faults, absolute obedience, and the
production of hidden truths, which constitute, I think, what is essential and the
originality and specificity of Christianity

Individualization in the Christian pastorate will be carried out in a completely


specific way that we have been able to see at work in relation to the themes of
salvation, the law, and truth In fact, the individualization assured by the
exercise of pastoral power in this way will no longer be defined by an individual’s
status, birth, or the splendor of his actions It will be defined in three ways
First, it will be defined by a game of dissection that defines the balance,
interplay, and circulation of merits and faults at each moment Let’s say that this
is not individualization by status, but by analytical identification Second, it is
a mode of individualization that is not brought about by the designation or marking
of an individual’s place in a hierarchy Nor will it be brought about by the
assertion of the self’s mastery of self, but by a whole network of servitude that
involves the general servitude of everyone with regard to everyone and, at the same
time, the exclusion of the self, of the ego, and of egoism as the central, nuclear
form of the individual It is therefore a mode of individualization by subjection
(assujettissement) Finally, third, it is a form of individualization that will not
be acquired through the relationship to a recognized truth, [but] will be acquired
instead through the production of an internal, secret, and hidden truth Analytical
identification, subjection, and subjectivation (subjectivation) are the
characteristic procedures of individualization that will in fact be implemented by
the Christian pastorate and its institutions

Here for instance is a thought which wipes out the ancient quarrel between optimism
and pessimism—that quarrel which Leibniz could not settle: ‘There is every degree
of distance between the creature and God. A distance in which the love of God is
impossible: matter, plants, animals. Evil is so complete there that it destroys
itself: there is no longer any evil: mirror of divine innocence. We are at the
point where love is just possible. It is a great privilege since the love which
unites is in proportion to the distance. God has created a world which is not the
best possible but which contains the whole range of good and evil. We are at the
point where it is as bad as possible because beyond is the stage where evil becomes
innocence.’

Or again, we find the law of the insertion of the higher into the lower formulated
thus: ‘Every order which transcends another can only be introduced into it under
the form of something infinitely small.’ This completes and deepens the law of the
three orders of Pascal. The world of fife does indeed appear to be infinitely small
in the midst of the material world: what do living beings represent when compared
to the huge mass of the planet and perhaps of the cosmos? It is the same with the
spiritual world in relation to the world of fife: there are at least 500,000 living
species on the earth, of which only one possesses ‘il ben dell’ intelletto’. And as
for the world of grace, it, in turn, appears infinitely small against the mass of
our secular thoughts and affections: the gospel illustrations of the leaven and the

infinitesimal which belongs to pure goodness’.

Creation reflects God by its beauty and harmony, but, through the evil and death
which abide in it and the blind necessity by which it is governed, it also reflects
the absence of God. We have issued from God: that means that we bear his imprint
and it means also that we are separated from him. The etymology of the word to
exist (to be placed outside) is very illuminating in this respect: we can say we
exist, we cannot say we are. God who is Being has in a sense effaced himself so
that we can exist: he has given up being everything in order that we might exist;
he has dispossessed himself in our favour of his own necessity, which is identical
with goodness, to allow another necessity to reign which is alien and indifferent
to good.

Simone Weil presents the problem of evil as follows: ‘How can we escape from that
which corresponds to gravity in ourselves?’ By grace alone. In order to come to us
God passes through the infinite thickness of time and space; his grace changes
nothing in the play of those blind forces of necessity and chance which guide the
world; it penetrates into our souls as a drop of water makes its way through
geological strata without affecting their structure, and there it waits in silence
until we consent to become God again. Whereas gravity is the work of creation, the
work of grace consists of ‘decreating’ us.

From this essential condition of salvation, the necessity of living in the pure
instantaneous present and of toiling regardless of results, Simone Weil draws a
magnificent spirituality of manual work. Such work puts man into direct contact
with the inherent absurdity and contradiction of earthly life and thus, if the
worker does not lie, it enables him to touch heaven. ‘Work makes us experience in
an exhausting manner the phenomenon of finality rebounding like a ball; to work in
order to eat, to eat in order to work. ... If we regard one of the two as an end,
or the one and the other taken separately, we are lost. Only the cycle contains the
truth.’ But in order to compass this cycle we must turn from the future and rise up
to the eternal. ‘It is not religion but revolution which is the opium of the
people.

The search for equilibrium is bad because it is imaginary. Revenge. Even if in fact
we kill or torture our enemy it is, in a sense, imaginary. A man who lived for his
city, his family, his friends, to acquire wealth, improve his social position, etc.
—a war: he is led away as a slave and henceforth for evermore he must wear himself
out to the utmost limit of his strength merely in order to exist. That is
frightful, impossible, and for this reason he will chng to any aim which presents
itself no matter how wretched, be it only to have the slave punished who works at
his side. He has no more choice about aims. Any aim at all is like a branch to a
drowning man. Those whose city had been destroyed and who were led away into
slavery had no longer either past or future: what had they with which to fill their
minds? Lies and the meanest and most pitiful of covetous desires. They were perhaps
more ready to risk crucifixion for the sake of stealing a chicken than they had
formerly been to risk death in battle for the defence of their town. This is surely
so, or those frightful tortures would not have been necessary. Otherwise they had
to be able to endure a void in their minds. In order to have the strength to

the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.” Spinoza’s God is very much the God of the
philosophers, a principle of explanation, a first cause of everything which exists,
itself neither needing nor susceptible of explanation by anything external to
itself, an eternal, necessary being, standing in contrast with the temporal,
contingent beings we find in our daily life, but not a personal being with
thoughts, desires, and emotions, not a creator of the universe, not a being who
acts for the sake of any purposes, and therefore not a being whose purposes might
be manifested in the world it causes. If a being must be a personal, purposeful
creator to rightly be called God, if anything other than the God of Abraham, Isaac,
and Jacob is not God, then Spinoza’s affirmation of the God of the philosophers
(and implicit denial of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob) is a form of atheism.
On those assumptions, to say that God only exists philosophically, that is, that
only the God of the philosophers exists, is to deny the existence of God. From his
point of view Father Solano may have been right to characterize Spinoza’s position
as atheism.

Descartes’ reply was that he did not conceive of the eternal truths as being
independent of God. Rather God had established them as a king might establish the
laws of his kingdom. They depend on his will, and are eternal and immutable only
because his will is eternal and immutable. But if the laws of nature are the result
of a divine choice, how can they be eternal and immutable? Does not the very notion
of choice imply that they could have been otherwise? And if they could have been
otherwise, how can it be necessary now that they not be otherwise? For Spinoza, to
introduce a personal creator at this point was to give up the hope of a rational
explanation of things, to betray the sciences Descartes had hoped to found. Better
to identify God himself with those most general principles of order described by
the fundamental laws of nature. It is in this sense that Spinoza does not separate
God from nature; he does not identify God with nature where nature is conceived
simply as the totality of finite things (IP29S).

Descartes, however, was not content to say merely that the mind and the body were
two distinct substances. Ultimately he wanted to argue also that the human mind is
not present in the body “as a sailor is present in his ship,” but is very closely
conjoined to it, so that together mind and body constitute one thing and are, as he
put it, “substantially united.” Descartes was never able to explain clearly what
this substantial union consisted in, but he seems to have been led to affirm it by
the very special relationship each mind has to the particular body to which it is
united: it feels what happens in that body in a way it does not feel what happens
in other bodies and it cares about what happens in that body in a way it does not
care about what happens in other bodies.

Spinoza is engaged in a similar project; he will identify three primitive passions—


desire, joy, and sadness—though he will prefer to call them affects, since
sometimes we are active, and not passive, when we are in these states; he will
attempt to explain how all other human affects—love and hate, hope and fear, self-
esteem and humility, and the like—are particular complications of these basic
three, usually because they involve the combination of a purely affective state
(like joy) with some kind of cognitive state (such as a belief about an external

“Each thing, as far as it can by its own power, strives to persevere in its being.”
As Spinoza interprets this principle, sometimes referred to as the conatus doctrine
(from the Latin word here translated as “striving”), it requires not merely that
things strive for self-preservation, but also that they strive to increase their
power of action (IIIP12). From this basic principle (together, sometimes, with
assumptions from Part II about how man’s cognitive powers function), Spinoza
undertakes to deduce a great many principles which

Of the various things which are useful to man, none, according to Spinoza, is more
useful than his fellow man (TVP18S). So one of the first requirements of reason is
that people should seek “to form associations, to bind themselves by those bonds
most apt to make one people of them, and absolutely, to do those things which serve
to strengthen friendships” (IVAppl2).

The central association which people rationally pursuing their self-interest must
form is the state (IVP37S2). For only if individual human beings come together to
create an entity with the power to prescribe a common rule of life, to make laws,
and to enforce them with the threat of punishment for violation, will they have any
reasonable level of security against the possibility of harm from their fellows.
Spinoza accepts this Hobbesian conclusion, not on the XXXI INTRODUCTION Hobbesian
ground that the rational pursuit of self-interest in the state of nature would lead
to preemptive violence of each individual against every other individual, but on
the Spinozistic ground that people are not reliably rational. Instead they are
regularly subject to passions which are capable of overpowering their rational
desires. If they lived according to the guidance of reason, theywould be able to
possess their natural right to pursue their own interest without injury to anyone
else. Because they do not, the state is necessary to prevent outbreaks of violence
which would be disadvantageous to all concerned.

In Part V one of his purposes is to explain how we can, in some measure, bring
those passions under the power of reason. His most promising strategies for doing
this rely on the fact that many affects involve a cognitive element. Hate, for
example, is defined as sadness accompanied by the idea of an external cause, that
is, by a belief about some BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE person or thing that it is the
cause of my sadness. If that belief is false or ill-founded, as may often be the

of the belief it involved (VP2). I may, of course, still be sad, but sadness is, in
general, a less harmful emotion than hate, since it does not perpetuate a vicious
cycle of attempts to harm and to retaliate for harm. Similarly, Spinoza argues that
if we come to understand the actions of others as a necessary effect of the
circumstances in which they were placed, this will tend to diminish the negative
emotions we feel toward them, redirecting them at other, possibly less harmful
targets. For example (to use the jargon of contemporary psychotherapy), if I come
to understand your actions as the product of low self-esteem, caused long ago by
negative lessons learned from parents and teachers, the anger I feel toward them
may be less dangerous to my well-being, since I may not have to deal with them in
any direct way. Spinozistic therapy may require favorable circumstances to be
effective, but that, unfortunately, is true of any therapy.

being finite is really, in part, a negation, and being infinite is an absolute
affirmation of the existence of some nature, it follows from P7 alone that every
substance must be infinite. [NS: For if we assumed a finite substance, we would, in

in Nature), it will not be enough (i.e., to give a reason why twenty mm exist) to
show the cause of human nature in general; but it will be necessary in addition to
show the cause why not more and not fewer than twenty exist. For (by DJ) there must
necessarily be a cause why each [NS: particular man] exists. But this cause (by II
and HI) cannot be contained in human nature itself, since the true definition of
man does not involve the number 20. So (by IV) the cause why these twenty men

necessary existence, and consequently its existence must be inferred from its

I have already indicated that, for all its interest in performatrvity. the thrust
of Touching Feeling is not to expose residual forms of essentiahsm lurking behind
apparently noncsscntialist forms of analysis. Nor is it to unearth unconscious
drives or compulsions underlying the apparent play of literary forms. Nor again is
it to uncover violent or oppressive historical forces masquerading under liberal
aesthetic guise. Without attempting to devalue such critical practices, I have
tried in this project to explore some ways around the topos of depth or hiddenness,
typically followed by a drama of exposure, that has been such a staple of critical
work of the past four decades. Beneath and behind arc hard enough to let go of;
what has been even more difficult is to get a little distance from beyond, in
particular the bossy gesture of "calling for" an imminently perfected critical or
revolutionary practice that one can oneself only adumbrate. Instead, as ns ride
suggests, the most salient preposition in Touching Feeling is probably beside.
Invoking a Dcleuzian interest tn planar relations, the irreduclbly spatial
positionality of beside also seems to offer some useful resistance to the ease with
which beneath and beyond turn from spatial descriptors into implicit narratives of.
respectively, origin and telos. Beside is an interesting preposition also because
there’s nothing very dual • istic about it; a number of elements may lie alongside
one another, though not an infinity of them. Beside permits a spacious agnosticism
about several of the linear logics that enforce dualistic thinking:
noncontradiction or the law of the excluded middle, cause versus effect, subject
versus object. Its interest docs not. however, depend on a fantasy of mctonymieally
egalitarian or even pacific relations, as any child knows who's shared a bed with
siblings. Beside comprises a wide range of desiring, identifying, representing.
repelling, paralleling, differentiating, rivaling, leaning, twisting, mimicking,
withdrawing, attracting, aggressing, warping, and other relations.

climb on. to stretch, to slide, to soak. Even more immediately than other
perceptual systems, it seems, the sense of touch makes nonsense out of any
dualisttc understanding of agency and passivity; to touch is always already to
reach out, to fondle, to heft, to tap, or to enfold, and always also to understand
other people or natural forces as having effectually done so before oneself, if
only in the making of the textured object.

If texture involves more than one sense, it is also true that the different
properties, and radically divergent modem histories, of different perceptual
systems are liable to torque and splay the history of texture as well. The sense of
physical touch itself, at least so far, has been remarkably unsusceptible to being
amplified by technology. Women who do breast self- examination are occasionally
taught to use a film of liquid soap, a square of satiny cloth, or even a pad of
thin plastic filled with a layer of water to make the contours of the breast more
salient to their fingers. But this minimal sensory enhancement is merely additive

For Tomkins, the difference between the drive system and the affect system is not
that one is more rooted in the body than the other; he understands both to be
thoroughly embodied, as well as more or less intensively interwoven with cognitive
processes. The difference instead is between more specific and more general, more
and less constrained: between biologically based systems that arc less and more
capable of generating complexity or degrees of freedom.1 Thus, for example, the
drives are relatively narrowly constrained in their aims: breathing will not
satisfy my hunger, nor will sleeping satisfy my need to excrete waste. The drives
are also relatively tune- constrained, inasmuch as I need to breathe within the
next minute, drink something today, and cat within the next few weeks to sustain
life. Most important, their range of objects is also relatively constrained: only a
tiny subset of gases satisfy my need to breathe or of liquids my need to drink. In
these- and several other ways, sexuality is clearly the least constrained (most
affcctlikc) of the drives "I lad Freud not smuggled some of the properties of the
affect system into his conception of the drives, his system would have been of much
less interest," Tomkins writes, and he also sees Freudian theory ns damaged bv
using sexuality to represent drives in general (Slidme 18 Touching Feeling 149).
But to the <limited) degree that sexuality is a drive, it shares the immediate
instrumentality, the defining orientation toward a specified aim and end different
from itself, that finally distinguishes the drives from the affects. Short of a
complete summary of Tomkins, these dimensions may stand for the significant
differences between affects and drives. Affects have far greater freedom than
drives with respect to, for example, time (anger can ev aporate m seconds but can
also motivate a decades longcareerof revenge) and aim i my pleasure in hearing a
piece of music can make me want to hear it repeatedly, listen to other music,
orstudy to become a composer myself). Especially, however, affects have greater
freedom with respect to object, for unlike the drives, "any affect may have any
‘object.’ Ibis is the basic source of complexity of human motivation and behavior”
(7). The object of affects such as anger, enjoyment, excitement, or shame is not
proper to the affects in the same way that air is the object proper to respiration:
“There is literally no kind of object which has not historically been linked to one
or another of the affects. Positive affect has been invested in pain and every kind
of human misery, and negative affect has been experienced as a consequence of
pleasure and every kind of triumph of the human spirit.... The same mechanisms
enable | people 1 to invest any and every aspect of existence with the magic of
excitement and joy or with the dread of fear or shame and distress" (541 Affects
can be. and are, attached to things, people, ideas, xensa tions, relations,
activities, ambitions, institutions, and any number of other things, including
other affects. Thus, one can be excited by anger, disgusted by shame, or surprised
by joy. This freedom of affects also gives them a structural potential not enjoyed
by the drive system: in contrast to the instrumentality of drives and their direct
orientation toward an aim different from themselves, the affects can be autotclic:
“There is no strict analog in the affect system for the rewarding effect of drive
consummaiion. It is rather the case that affect arousal anti reward are identical
in the case of positive affects; what activates positive affects 'satisfies' "<58;
emphasis added). In

It makes sense, then, that Tomkins considers sexuality "the drive in which the
affective component plays the largest role”: not only is it "the least imperious of
all the drives," but it is the only one "in which activation of the drive even
without consummation has a rewarding rather than a punishing quality. It is much
more exciting and rewarding." he understates, "to feel sexually aroused than to
feel hungry or thirsty" (60) Even though sexual desire is usually oriented toward
an aim and object other than itself, it is much more malleable in its aims and
objects than are the other drives, and also, like the positive affects, has the
potential of being autotelic.

Schol.: [I.] There are those who feign a God, like man, consisting of a body and a
mind, and subject to passions. But how far they wander from the true knowledge of
God, is sufficiently established by what has already been demonstrated. Them I
dismiss. For everyone who has to any extent contemplated the divine nature denies
that God is corporeal. They prove this best from the fact that by body we
understand any quantity, with length, breadth, and depth, limited by some certain
figure. Nothing more absurd than this can be said of God, namely, of a being
absolutely infinite. But meanwhile, by the other arguments by which they strive to
demonstrate this same conclusion they clearly show that they entirely remove
corporeal, or extended, substance itself from the divine nature. And they maintain
that it has been created by God. But by what divine power could it be created? They
are completely ignorant of that. And this shows clearly that they do not understand
what they themselves say. At any rate, I have demonstrated clearly enough—in my
judgment, at least—that no substance can be produced or created by another thing
(see P6C and P8S2). Next, we have shown (P14) that except for God, no substance can
either be or be conceived, and hence [in P14C2] we have concluded that extended
substance is one of God’s infinite attributes. But to provide a fuller explanation,
I shall refute my opponents’ arguments, which all reduce to these.

why must they all be so fitted together that there is no vacuum? Truly, of things
which are really distinct from one another, one can be, and remain in its
condition, without the other. Since, therefore, there is no vacuum in Nature (a
subject I discuss elsewhere), but all its parts must so concur that there is no
vacuum, it follows also that they cannot be really distinguished, that is, that
corporeal substance, insofar as it is a substance, cannot be divided. [V] If
someone should now ask why we are, by nature, so inclined to divide quantity, I
shall answer that we conceive quantity in two ways: abstractly, or superficially,
as we [NS: commonly] imagine it, or as substance, which is done by the intellect
alone [NS: without the help of the imagination]. So if we attend to quantity as it

P29: In nature there is nothing contingent, but all things have hem determined from
the necessity cfthe divine nature to exist and produce an effect in a certain way.
Dem.: Whatever is, is in God (by P15); but God cannot be called a contingent thing.
For (by Pll) he exists necessarily, not contingently. Next, the modes of the divine
nature have also followed from it necessarily and not contingently (by P16)—either
insofar as the divine nature is considered absolutely (by P21) or insofar as it is
considered to be determined to act in a certain way (by P28). Further, God is the
cause of these modes not only insofar as they simply exist (by P24C), but also (by
P26) insofar as they are considered to be determined to produce an effect. For if
they have not been determined by God, then (by P26) it is impossible, not
contingent, that they should determine themselves. Conversely (by P27) if they have
been determined by God, it is not 11/71 contingent, but impossible, that they
should render themselves undetermined. So all things have been determined from the
necessity of the divine nature, not only to exist, but to exist in a certain way,
and to produce effects in a certain way. There is nothing contingent, q.e.d.

Still, if they say this, they will concede at the same time that God can change his
decrees. For if God had decreed, concerning Nature and its order, something other
than what he did decree, that is, had willed and conceived something else
concerning Nature, he would necessarily have had an intellect other than he now
has, and a will other than he now has. And if it is permitted to attribute to God
another intellect and another will, without any change of his essence and of his
perfection, why can he not now change his decrees concerning created things, and
nevertheless remain equally perfect? For his intellect and will concerning created
things and their order are the same in respect to his essence and his perfection,
however his will and intellect may be conceived. Further, all the philosophers I
have seen concede that in God there is no potential intellect, but only an actual
one. But since his intellect and his will are not distinguished from his essence,
as they all also concede, it follows that if God had another actual intellect, and
another will, his n/76 essence would also necessarily be other. And therefore (as I
inferred at the beginning) if things had been produced by God otherwise than they
now are, God’s intellect and his will, that is (as is conceded), his essence, would
have to be different [NS: from what it now is]. And this is absurd.

Nor ought we here to pass over the fact that the Followers of this doctrine, who

n/8i that the stone fell in order to kill the man. For if it did not fall to that
end, God willing it, how could so many circumstances have concurred by chance (for

happened because the wind was blowing hard and the man was walking that way. But
they will persist: why was the wind blowing hard at that time? why was the man

because on the preceding day, while the weather was still calm, the sea began to

In reality, we are stuck with third- and first- person narration. The common idea
is that there is a contrast between reliable narration (third-person omniscience)

So there is a tension basic to stories and novels: Can we reconcile the author's
perceptions and language with the character's perception and language? If the
author and character are absolutely merged, as in the passage from Wallace above,
we get, as it were, "the whole of boredom”—the author's corrupted language just
mimics an actually existing corrupted language we all know too well, and are in
fact quite desperate to escape. But if author and character get too separated, as
in the Updike passage, we feel the cold breath of an alienation over the text, and
begin to resent the over-"literary'' efforts of the stylist. The Updike is an
example of aestheticism (the author gets in the way); the Wallace is an example of
antiaestheticism (the character is all): but both examples are really species of
the same aestheticism, which is at bottom the strenuous display of style.

The tension between the author's style and his or her characters' styles becomes
acute when three elements coincide: when a notable stylist is at work, like Bellow

style or its offspring, stream of consciousness); and when HOW FICTION WORKS (38)
the stylist has a special interest in the rendering of detail. Stylishness, free

But is this layer of gratuitous detail actually like life or just a trick? In his
essay "The Reality Effect,"* Roland Barthes essentially argues that "irrelevant"
detail is a code we no ACollected in The Rustle of Language, translated by Richard
Howard (1986). HOW FICTION WORKS longer notice, and one that has little to do with
how life really is. He discusses a passage by the historian Jules Michelet, in
which Michelet is describing the last hours of Charlotte Corday in prison. An
artist visits her and paints her portrait, and then "after an hour and a half,
there was a gentle knock at a little door behind her." Then Barthes turns to
Flaubert's description of Mme Aubain's room in A Simple Heart "Eight mahogany
chairs were lined up against the white- painted wainscoting, and under the
barometer stood an old piano loaded with a pyramid of boxes and cartons." The
piano, Barthes argues, is there to suggest bourgeois status, the boxes and cartons
perhaps to suggest disorder. But why is the barometer there? The barometer denotes
nothing; it is an object "neither incongruous nor significant"; it is apparently
"irrelevant." Its business is to denote reality, it is there to create the effect,
the atmosphere of the real. It simply says: "I am the real." (Or if you prefer: "I
am realism.") An object like the barometer, Barthes continues, is supposed to
denote the real, but in fact all it does is signify it. In the Michelet passage,
the little "filler" of the knock at the door is the kind of thing that this writing
"puts in" to create the realistic IRRELEVENT DETAIL (83) "effect" of time passing.
Realism in general, it is implied, is just such a business of false denotation. The
barometer is interchangeable with a hundred other items; realism is an artificial
tissue of mere arbitrary signs. Realism offers the appearance of reality but is in
fact utterly fake—what Barthes calls "the referential illusion."

was no logical reason for the condemned man to avoid the puddle. It was pure

•Spatial metaphors, of depth, shallowness, roundness, flatness, are inadequate. A


better division—though not perfect, either—is between transparencies (relatively
simple characters) and opacities (relative degrees of mysteriousness). Many of the
most absorbing accounts of motive, from Hamlet to Stavrogin to the subjects of W.
G. Sebald's The Emigrants, are studies in mystery. Stephen Greenblatt argues in
Will in the
World: How Shakespeare Became Shakespeare (2004) that
in his tragedies, Shakespeare systematically reduced the amount of "causal
explanation a tragic plot needed to function effectively and the amount of explicit
psychological rationale a character needed to be compelling. Shakespeare found that
he could immeasurably deepen the effect of his plays, that he could provoke in the
audience and in himself a peculiarly passionate intensity of response, if he took
out a key explanatory element, thereby occluding the rationale, motivation, or
ethical principle that accounted for the action that was to unfold. The principle
was not the making of a riddle to be solved, but the creation of a strategic
opacity." Why does Lear test his daughters? Why can’t Hamlet effectively avenge the
death ofhis father? Why does Iago ruin Othello's life? The source texts that
Shakespeare read all provided transparent answers (Iago was in love with Desdemona,
Hamlet should kill Claudius, Lear was unhappy with Cordelia's impending marriage).
But Shakespeare was not interested in such transparency. Greenblatt's argument also
touches on section 87, where I show how the novel threw off the essential
juvenility of plot in favor of "unconsummated" stories, and section 97, where I
discuss the novel's possible contribution to Bernard Williams's desire for
complexity in moral philosophy.

If Macbeth's story is one of publicized privacy, Raskolnikov's story is one of


scrutinized privacy. God still exists, but he is not watching Raskolnikov—at least,
not until the end of the novel when Raskolnikov accepts Christ. Until that moment,
Raskolnikov is being watched by us, the readers. The crucial difference between
this and the theater is that we are invisible. In David's story the audience is in
some important way irrelevant; in Macbeth's the audience is visible and silent, and
soliloquy does indeed have the feeling not only of an address to an audience but of
a conversation with an interlocutor—us—who will not respond, a blocked dialogue. In
Raskolnikov's story the audience—the reader—is invisible but all-seeing; so the
reader has replaced David's God and Macbeth's audience.

To my mind, this is also a weakness with a certain kind of postmodern novel—say


Thomas Pynchon's Against the Day—still in love with the rapid, farcelike, overlit
simplicities of Fielding. There is nothing more eighteenth-century than Pynchon's
love of picaresque plot accumulation; his mockery of pedantry, which is at the same
time a love of pedantry; his habit of making his flat characters dance for a moment
on stage and then whisking them away; his vaudevillian fondness for silly names,
japes, mishaps, disguises, silly errors, and so on. There are pleasures to be had
from these amiable, peopled canvases, and there are passages of great beauty, but,
as in farce, the cost to final seriousness is considerable: everyone is ultimately
protected from real menace because no one really exists. The massive turbines of
the incessant story-making produce so much noise that no one can be heard. The Nazi
Captain Blicero in Gravity's Rainbow, or the ruthless financier Scarsdale Vibe in
Against the Day, are not truly frightening figures, because they are not true
figures. But Gilbert Osmond, Herr Naphta, Peter Verkhovensky, and Conrad's
anarchist professor are very frightening

As Mandelstam suggested, the novel probably has its origins in a secular response
to CHARACTEROLOGICAL RELATIVITY (151) the religious lives and biographies of saints
and holy men, and in the tradition inaugurated by the Greek writer Theophrastus,
who offered a series of sketches of types— the miser, the hypocrite, the fond and
foolish lover, and so on. (Don Quixote belongs to the modern novel in part because
Cervantes is so determined to discredit the "holy," chivalric tales of Arthur and
Amadis of Gaul.) Since these were discrete portraits, you could not contrast one
with the other.

One way to tell slick genre prose from really interesting writing is to look, in
the former case, for the absence of different registers. An efficient thriller will
often be written in a style that is locked into place: the musical analogue of this
might be a tune, proceeding in unison, the melody separated only by octave
intervals, without any harmony in the middle. By contrast, rich and daring prose
avails itself of harmony and dissonance by being able to move in and out of place.
In writing, a "register" is nothing more than a name for a kind of diction, which
is nothing more than a name for a certain, distinctive way of saying something—so
we talk about "high" and "low" registers (e.g., the highish "Father" and the lower
"Pop"), grand and vernacular diction, mock-heroic diction, cliched registers, and
so on.

No one would deny that writing of this sort has indeed become a kind of invisible
rule book, whereby we no longer notice its artificialities. One reason for this is
economic. Commercial realism has cornered the market, has become the most powerful
brand in fiction. We must expect that this brand will be economically reproduced,
over and over again. That is why the complaint that realism is no more than a
grammar or set of rules that obscures life is generally a better description of le
Carre or P. D. James than it is of Flaubert or George Eliot or Isherwood: when a
style decomposes, flattens itself down into a genre, then indeed it does become a
set of mannerisms and often pretty lifeless techniques. The efficiency of the
thriller genre takes just what it needs from the much less efficient Flaubert or
Isherwood, and throws away what made those writers truly alive. And of course, the
most economically privileged genre of this kind of largely lifeless "realism" is
commercial cinema, through which most people nowadays receive their idea of what
constitutes a "realistic" narrative.

■/ Yet often we could with more accuracy speak of persuasion “to attitude,” rather
than persuasion to out-and-out action. Persuasion involves choice, will; it is
directed to a man only insofar as he is free. This is good to remember, in these
days of dictatorship and near-dictatorship. Only insofar as men are potentially
free, must the spellbinder seek to persuade them. Insofar as they must do
something, rhetoric is unnecessary, its work being done by the nature of things,
though often these necessities are not of a natural origin, but come from
necessities imposed by man-made conditions, as with the kind of peithananke (or
“compulsion under the guise of persuasion”) that sometimes flows from the nature of
the “free market.”

Insofar as a choice of action is restricted, rhetoric seeks rather to have a


formative effect upon attitude (as a criminal condemned to death might by priestly
rhetoric be brought to an attitude of repentance and resignation). Thus, in Cicero
and Augustine there is a shift between the words “move” (movere) and “bend”
(ftectere) to name the ultimate function of rhetoric. This shift corresponds to a
distinction between act and attitude (attitude being an incipient act, a leaning or
inclination). Thus the notion of persuasion to attitude would permit the
application of rhetorical terms to purely poetic structures; the study of lyrical
devices might be classed under the head of rhetoric, when these devices are
considered for their power to induce or communicate states of mind to readers, even
though the kinds of assent evoked have no overt, practical outcome.

The kind of opinion with which rhetoric deals, in its role of inducement to action,
is not opinion as contrasted with truth. There is the invitation to look at the
matter thus antithetically, once we have put the two terms (opinion and truth)
together as a dialectical pair. But actually, many of the “opinions” upon which
persuasion relies fall outside the test of truth in the strictly scientific, T-F,
yes-or-no sense. Thus, if a given audience has a strong opinion that a certain kind
of conduct is admirable, the orator can commend a person by using signs that
identify him with such conduct. “Opinion” in this ethical sense clearly falls on
the bias across the matter of “truth” in the strictly scientific sense. Of course,
a speaker may be true or false in identifying a person by some particular sign of
virtuous conduct. You may say that a person so acted when the person did not so act
—and if you succeed in making your audience believe you, you could be said to be
trafficking in sheer opinion as contrasted with the truth. But we are here
concerned with motives a step farther back than such mere deception. We > are
discussing the underlying ethical assumptions on which the entire ^ tactics of
persuasion are based. Here the important factor is opinion > (opinion in the moral
order of action, rather than in the “scenic” order TRADITIONAL PRINCIPLES OF
RHETORIC 55 of truth). The rhetorician, as such, need operate only on this
principle. If, in the opinion of a given audience, a certain kind of conduct is
admirable, then a speaker might persuade the audience by using ideas and images
that identify his cause with that kind of conduct.

And of course there were lots of girls. Besides, New York was then a very Russian
city, so we had Russia all over the place. It was a case, as Lionel Abel said, of a
metropolis that yearned to belong to another country. New York dreamed of leaving
North America and merging with Soviet Russia. Humboldt easily went in his
conversation from Babe Ruth to Rosa Luxemburg and Bela Kun and Lenin. Then and
there I realized that if I didn't read Trotsky at once I wouldn't be worth

Smolny Institute, the Shakhty engineers, the Moscow trials, Sidney Hook's From
Hegel to Marx, Lenin's State and Revolution. In fact, he compared himself to Lenin.

Also (continuing our review) there is rhetoric as an art of “proving opposites”; as


appeal to emotions and prejudices; as “agonistic,” shaped by a strongly competitive
purpose. On this last score, we might note that Isocrates, responding to the
element of unfairness in the war of words, chose to spiritualize the notion of
“advantage” (ipleonexia). While recognizing the frequent rhetorical aim to take
advantage of an opportunity or to gain advantage for oneself, he located the “true
advantage” of the rhetorician in moral superiority. He was thinking of an ideal
rhetoric, of course, rather than describing the struggle for advantage as it
ordinarily does take place in human affairs. But he here adds a very important term
to our list: Among the marks of rhetoric is its use to gain advantage of one sort
or another. ' Indeed, all the sources of “happiness” listed in Aristotle’s
“eudai- TRADITIONAL PRINCIPLES OF RHETORIC 6l monist” rhetoric, as topics to be
exploited for persuasion and dissuasion, could be lumped under the one general
heading of “advantage,” as could the nineteenth-century Utilitarians’ doctrine of

But Aristotle does not discuss varieties of audience with the systematic
thoroughness which he brings to the classification of opinion in general. And both
Aristotle and Cicero consider audiences purely as something given. The extreme
heterogeneity of modern life, however, combined with the nature of modern postal
agencies, brings up another kind of possibility: the systematic attempt to carve
out an audience, as the commercial rhetorician looks not merely for persuasive
devices in general, but for the topics that will appeal to the particu-' lar
“income group” most likely to be interested in his product, or able to buy it. If
immediacy or intensity of appeal is got by narrowing the topics and images to the
group likely to be his best audience, he will seek to prod only these to action (if
we could call it “active,” rather than “passive,” when a prospective customer is
bent towards one brand of a commodity rather than another, though the brand he
passes up may be a better buy than the one he purchases, a kind of conduct that may
not be informed enough to be “rational” and “free,” hence not rational and free
enough to be truly an act, at least in the full philosophic sense of the term). In
any case, here too would be a consideration of audiences; hence even by the tests
of the classic tradition it would fall under the head of rhetoric, though it
necessarily extended the range of the term to cover a situation essentially new.

Thus, all told, besides the extension of rhetoric through the concept | of
identification, we have noted these purely traditional evidences of j the
rhetorical motive: persuasion, exploitation of opinion (the “timely”j topic is a
variant), a work’s nature as addressed, literature for use (ap-j plied art,
inducing to an act beyond the area of verbal expression con-1 sidered in and for
itself), verbal deception (hence, rhetoric as instrument in the war of words), the
“agonistic” generally, words used “sweetly” (eloquence, ingratiation, for its own
sake), formal devices, the art of proving opposites (as “counterpart” of
dialectic). We have also suggested that the “carving out” of audiences is new to
the extent that there are new mediums of communication, but there is nothing here
essentially outside the traditional concerns of rhetoric.

As for the purely formal kinds of appeal which we previously mentioned when trying
to show how they involve the principle of identification, their universal nature
makes it particularly easy to shift them from rhetoric to poetic. Thus, viewing
even tendentious oratory from the standpoint of literary appreciation rather than
in terms of its use, Longinus analyzes “sublimity” of effect in and for itself.
Where Demosthenes would transport his auditors the better to persuade them,
Longinus treats the state of transport as the aim. Hence he seeks to convey the
quality of the excitement, and to disclose the means by which it is produced.
Indeed, might not his key term, that is usually, translated “sublime,” come close
to what we mean by “moving,” not in the rhetorical sense, of moving an audience to
a decision, but as when we say of a poem, “How moving!”

Rhetorical Form in the Large There is also persuasive form in the larger sense,
formulated as a progression of steps that begins with an exordium designed to
secure the good will of one’s audience, next states one’s own position, then points
up the nature of the dispute, then builds up one’s own case at length, then refutes
the claims of the adversary, and in a final peroration expands and reinforces all
points in one’s favor, while seeking to discredit whatever had favored the
adversary (vituperation, irony, and appeal to the emotions also being drawn upon
here). The great concern with the classifying and analyzing of minute incidental
effects has caused writers on ancient rhetoric to say that these larger principles
of form were slighted. Yet they are recognized as set stages in the strucure of an
oration, almost as formal as the movements of a symphony.

literary theory is traditionally weak in the analysis of structure in the larger


sense, if only because isolated stylistic effects lend themselves readily to
quotation, whereas the discussion of formal development in the large is unwieldy.
(Even Coleridge, with his stress upon the unifying function of the imagination,
does not analyze structural unity in the over-all sense, but becomes involved in a
kind of methodological oxymoron, illustrating total unity by fragmentary examples.)
But there were ways in which the art of persuasion could be conveniently discussed
in the large; this was by generalizations about kinds of rhetoric, kinds of style,
and the functions or duties of the rhetorician (Cicero’s officia oratoris).

and you get the traditional three formulated in Aristotle’s Rhetoric: (1)
deliberative, directed towards the future, as with communication designed to sway
an audience on matters of public policy; (2) forensic or judicial, involving the
past, as with speeches designed to establish in a jury’s mind the guilt or
innocence of an accused person; and (3) demonstrative (epideictic, “display”
oratory, sometimes also called panegyric). This third kind readily becomes a catch-
all. Aristotle says that it aims at praise or blame. And he says that it is
concerned primarily with the present. Even at the height of Greek rhetoric, its
range included: funeral orations; tributes to some public character (or diatribes
against such figures); patriotic addresses lauding one’s city or one’s countrymen;
playful, often punning encomiums on animals and things (or playful invectives
against them).

But one must speak grandly (granditer) when there is something to be done and
“minds are to be swayed” (ad flectendos animos). Here again we see a replica of the
Longinus esthetic in terms of Christian persuasion: for just as the concern with
the “sublime” in Longinus culminates in ideas and images of the fearsome, so the
ardor and vehemence of the grand style in Augustine is said to be particularly fit
for admonishing against the neglect of God. But the totality of motivation
propounded by Christian doctrine provided a new poignancy to the relation between
the rhetoric of particular cases and the rhetoric of generalization For though each
of the three styles is appropriate for certain purposes, Augustine says there is a
sense in which all topics of Christian rhetoric deserve treatment in the grand
style, since there is nothing in life that does not somehow bear upon God. Thus,
though money matters may be trivial from an ordinary point of view, no sum, however
small, can be trivial to the true Christian.

Perhaps because theories of imagination, as a kind of knowledge, work best in those


areas where poetic and scientist thought overlap, the. concern with “imagination”
as a suasive device does not reach full jj expression until the modern era. Also,
such concern in the classical rhetorics was often treated in terms of
“actualization” (energeia, the use of words that suggest purposive movement) and
“vividness” (enargeia). And Aristotle’s classing of “actualization” along with
“antithesis” and “metaphor” as the three most effective devices of speech, would
include much other matter which might in modern theory be treated from the
standpoint of imagination.

If these other, invisible meanings surrounding the poetic image are not exactly
“ideas” in the purely intellectualistic sense of the term, they are certainly not
empirical in the purely positivistic sense. And such connotations or overtones of
the poetic image are at least “confused ideas,” both in the sense that critical
analysis can often discern some of them with sufficient clarity to name their
“ideational” equivalents, and in the sense that such “imaginary” meanings are fused
together in the image (as it functions in the poem).

In sum: Insofar as a poet’s images are organically related, there is a formal


principle behind them. The images could be said to body forth this principle. The
principle itself could, by a properly discerning critic, be named in terms of ideas
(or one basic idea with modifiers). Thus, the imagery could be said to convey an
invisible, intangible idea in terms of visible, tangible things. In this respect,
the pattern of Platonism would seem to provide an accurate technical description of
poetic structure.

In any case, the tendency to view image and idea as antithetical has given us today
a frequent distinction between imagery (a cluster of interrelated images) and
ideology (a structure of interrelated ideas). And though “ideology” originally
meant but the study of ideas in themselves (as with Socrates’ systematic concern
with the problems involved in defining the idea of justice), it usually refers now
to a system of political or social ideas, framed and propounded for an ulterior
purpose. In this new usage, “ideology” is obviously but a kind of rhetoric (since
the ideas are so related that they have in them, either explicitly or implicitly,
inducements to some social and political choices rather than others). Yet, though
rhetorical ideology thus comes to be contrasted with poetic imagery, Jeremy Bentham
warned us to look for the images that, overtly or covertly, serve as models for
ideas.

Another way of stating this would be by taking as a paradigm the relation between
spirit and matter proclaimed in idealistic metaphysics. (See our remarks on Hegel’s
Philosophy of History, for instance, in the Grammar.) Since in such schemes, the
principle of unification or relationship binding a cluster of related natural
phenomena can be looked upon as an invisible, intangible spirit represented by the
imagery, so a cluster of images organized in accordance with some principle of
artistic order would correspond to the temporal or historical conditions by which
the Universal Idea makes itself manifest at a given time and place. Whatever you
may think of this pattern, as a metaphysics of history, such a view of nature as
the representative embodiment of Universal Purpose is a good way in which to
consider the relationship between some limited artistic purpose and its embodiment,
or representation, in the imagery of nature and experience. The imagery is thus
treated as the “natural incarnation” of the idea or organizing principle that
guided the choice and development of it. (We should here have a secular esthetic
equivalent of the Pauline formula for the word made flesh.)

As the imagery would be a translation of the idea into sensory terms, criticism
might conversely propose to retranslate this sensory version back into purely
dialectical or ideological terms, abstractions transcending sheer sensory
experience. And it would look upon an image, not as the merely “positive” thing our
senses take it to be, but as “negative,” in the sense that the image existed by
exclusion, by differentiation from other images, each of which would, in its way,
be one particular, unique embodiment of the over-all principle organizing or
generating the lot. This is like Hegel’s doctrine of the “concrete universal,”
according to which any one “moment,” any one thing, in its particularity or
divisiveness, is not “positive” but “negative,” when considered from the standpoint
of the general principles represented by its thinghood.

Metaphysically this may be dubious. But the esthetic equivalent amounts to little
more than the statement that, where a shifting body of imagery is considered in a
unified work of art, the “spirit” of each individual image is to be found, not in
itself, but in the artistic purpose behind the whole body of imagery.

he puts it, in his typically crabbed style: Of this device, the object and effect

Thus, whereas we might speak of desire, labor, disposition, character, or habit


(all of which, in his scheme, would be “neutral” terms), we might on the other hand
use either laudatory (“eulogistic”) words like industry, honor, generosity,
gratitude, or vituperative (“dyslogistic”) words like lust, avarice, luxury,
covetousness, prodigality. Ben- tham believes that originally all words for “pains,
pleasures, desires, emotions, motives, affections, propensities, dispositions, and
other moral entities” were “neutral.” But “by degrees they acquired, some of them
an eulogistic, some a dyslogistic, cast. This change extended itself, as the moral
sense (if so loose and delusive a term may on this occasion be employed) advanced
in growth.” The project of a “neutral” vocabulary midway between the two
“censorious” extremes of “eulogistic” and “dyslogistic” terms presents a notable
contrast with the analysis of the virtues in Aristotle’s Ethics. In Aristotle, a
virtue is the happy medium between two extremes (which are vices). Thus, “courage”
is a virtue midway between the vicious extremes, cowardice and rashness; liberality
midway between squandering and meanness; good temper midway between irascibility
and sluggishness; friendliness midway between obsequiousness and churlishness;
truthfulness, midway between boastfulness and false modesty, etc. Here the middle
terms are themselves “eulogistic,” striking a balance between extremes that would
be “dyslogistic.” There are no “neutral” terms in the Benthamite sense.

Where inducement to action is concerned, a genuinely neutral vocabulary would


defeat its own ends: for there would be no act in it. It would give full
instructions for conditioning—but it could not say to what one should condition.
But since purposes indigenous to the monetary rationale are so thoroughly built
into the productive and distributive system as in ours, a relatively high
proportion of interest in purely “neutral” terminologies of motives can be
consistent with equally intense ambition. For however “neutral” a terminology may
be, it can function as rhetorical inducement to action insofar as it can in any way
be used for monetary advantage. In fact, “neutralization” may often serve but to
eliminate, as far as is humanly possible, the various censorial weightings that go
with the many different philosophic, religious, social, political, and personal
outlooks extrinsic to the monetary motive. Thus, the terminology of investment is
“neutral,” but the mortgagee, personally, may want to employ a heavily weighted
term as “appellative” for the mortgagor who would foreclose. And if the mortgagor
could foreclose at a profit, but is deterred by other scruples, then he abides by
censorial weightings alien to the pure “neutrality” of the financial logic alone.

It is by such tonalities, more than by reasoned arguments, that our newspapers

These headlines are the “single appellatives,” which we call “tonalities” because
they imply a certain tone of voice, and this is the tone of voice proper to a
certain kind of conclusion. We might as justly call them “gestures,” “postures,”
“attitudes.” Subtly, they act by the principle of empathy (for, as Cicero reminds
us, in the mere representation of emotion there is something which invites the
beholder to participate in it). And they are “question-begging” terms in that they

Whatever may be the claims of Marxism as a “science,” its terminology is not a


neutral “preparation for action” but “inducement to ac\ tion.” In this sense, it is
unsleepingly rhetorical, though much of its persuasiveness has derived from
insistence that it is purely a science, with “rhetoric” confined to the deliberate
or unconscious deceptions of non-Marxist apologetics. Thus, we once saw a Marxist
(he has since left the Communist Party) get soundly rebuked by his comrades for the
suggestion that leftist critics collaborate in a study of “Red Rhetoric.” Despite
their constant efforts to find the slogans, catchwords, and formulas that will most
effectively influence action in given situations, and their friendliness to
“propaganda” or “social significance” in art, they would not allow talk of a “Red
Rhetoric.” For them, “Rhetoric” applied solely to the persuasiveness of capitalist,
fascist, and other non- Marxist terminologies (or “ideologies”). Yet in actual
practice their position seems (mutatis mutandis!) to be pretty much that of
Augustine. That is: the Marxists have a rhet- 102 TRADITIONAL PRINCIPLES OF
RHETORIC oric, a persuasion, which in turn is grounded in a dialectic. The rhetoric
is words; the dialectic, being concerned with the non-verbal order of motives,
could be equated with “science.” And an art in keeping would be grounded in
“science” (or “dialectic”) insofar as it took its start from the experiences of
natural reality, while being rhetorical in proportion as its persuasiveness helped
form judgments, choices, attitudes deemed favorable to Communist purposes. All this
seems obvious enough; but rhetoric having become identified with non-Marxist
rhetoric, the Marxist persuasion is usually advanced in the name of no-rhetoric.

subject matter of nonverbal things and relationships). They could be called a
rhetoric, however, in several important senses: (1) The account of extralin-
guistic factors in a rhetorical expression (as when disclosing how economic
interests influence modes of expression that, considered “in themselves,” seem
wholly to transcend the economic) is itself an aspect of rhetorica docens, though
perhaps on the outer edges; (2) insofar as the Marxist vocabulary itself is
partial, or partisan, it is rhetorical, and we could not have a dialectic in the
fullest sense unless we gave equally sympathetic expression to competing principles
(though we shall later see that this objection must be modified); (3) it is
concerned with advantage, not only in analyzing the hidden advantage in other
terminologies (or “ideologies”), but also in itself inducing to advantages of a
special sort. (Here it becomes a kind of rhetorica utens.')

The main principles of Marxism, as a theory of rhetoric, are most directly stated,
perhaps, in an early work by Marx and Engels, The German Ideology. But though
Marxist writings probably contributed much to the current prestige of the word,
“ideology,” it is seldom used in exactly the sense that Marx gave it. So we might
begin by noting 104 TRADITIONAL PRINCIPLES OF RHETORIC the several meanings it now
seems to have, meanings wpich, while not necessarily antagonistic to one another,
are quite different in insight and emphasis: ) The study, development,
criticism of ideas, considered in themselves. (As in a Socratic dialogue.) A system
of ideas, aiming at social or political action. (Pareto’s sociology, or Hitler’s
Mein Kampf.) Any set of interrelated terms, having practical civic consequences,
directly or indirectly. (A business men’s code of fair practices might be a good
instance.) “Myth” designed for purposes of governmental control. (“Ideology” would
here be an exact synonym for “myth of the state.”) A partial, hence to a degree
deceptive, view of reality, particularly when the limitations can be attributed to
“interest-begotten prejudice.” (For instance, a white Southern intellectual’s
“ironic resignation” to a status quo built on “white supremacy.”) ’
Purposefully manipulated overemphasis or underemphasis in the discussion of
controversial political and social issues. (For instance, the kind of verbalizing
done by a statesman, home from a discordant conference with foreign diplomats. In a
“confidential” radio talk he gives the people a “frank and simple report of the
facts.” But the report is scrupulously designed to allow them no inkling of how the
matter looks from the other side.) An inverted genealogy of culture, that makes for
“illusion” and “mystification” by treating ideas as primary where they should have
been treated as derivative.

Imagine, now, an “ideologist” who, with the documents of many centuries to work
from, inspects a whole developmental series of such successive “ruling” ideas, and
who, considering these ideas “in themselves,” attempts to work out an explanation
for their development. If he proceeds in accordance with the Hegelian dialectic, he
will get the kind of reversed genealogy which Marxism is attacking. He can treat
these particular sets of ideas in terms of some over-all title, a word for ideas in
general, such as Spirit, or Consciousness, or die Idee. Hence he can look upon the
succession of “ruling” ideas (like “honor,” “loyalty,” “liberty”) as though each
were an expression of the one Universal Idea (his title for the lot, which he uses
not just as a summarizing word, but as a “sub-ject” in the strict philosophic
sense, that is, an underlying basis, a sub-stance, of which any step along the
entire series can be considered as a property, or expression). He can next assign
some direction to the entire series, such as the gradual increase of freedom or
self-consciousness. Then he can treat this ultimate direction as the essence of the
whole series, the end towards which the entire series strives, whereby it can be
considered latent in even the first step of the series. Then this Purpose, or
Universal Idea, can be viewed as the creative principle operating within the entire
series. Each step along the way would be a limited expression of this universal
principle; its nature would be determined by its particular place in the series;
yet within the limitations of its nature, each stage would represent the principle
of the total development (as bud, flower, and seed could each, at different stages
in a plant’s growth, be called successive momentary expressions of a single
biologic continuity). “The Idea” thus becomes a universal self-developing organism.
Its successive stages make a dialectical series, as shifts in the nature of
property, production, and rule make for shifts in the ruling ideas; but these
ruling ideas are considered “purely” (as manifestations, not of particular ruling
classes, but of the “Absolute Idea”). The Absolute Idea thus becomes the creator of
nature and history, which are but concrete expressions of it. Hence, all the
material relations in history are interpreted as the products of this Universal
Spirit, manifesting itself in the empirical world. The study of this empirical
world, of TRADITIONAL PRINCIPLES OF RHETORIC 107 course, would include such matters
as conflicts over property. But instead of considering ideas as weapons shaped by
their use in such conflicts, the kind of “ideologist” Marx is attacking would treat
the conflicts as themselves but “moments” in the expression of the Universal Idea
underlying all historical development.

whereas the typical conflicts of society are rooted in property. If, when there is
a quarrel over property, instead of confronting it squarely you begin considering
abstruse problems of universal consciousness or looking for remote kinds of
metaphysical or theological anguish and alienation embedded in the very essence of
humanity, you are blinded by a principle of “mystification.” At every significant
point where there is an economic factor to be faced, your “ideology” introduces an
“illusion,” a purely spiritual “appearance.” Where empires are striving for world
markets, you are “ideologically” inclined to ponder the ways of “universal spirit.”
Where classes within a nation are struggling for dominance, you are likely to
confuse the issue by ideals that give a semblance of national unity.

But with regard to Kant’s debasing of rhetoric many scholars (e.g. Bender /
Wellbery 1990: 3-39) have rediscovered the age-old conflict between philosophy and
rhetoric that began with Plato’s dialogues Gorgias and Phaidros and continued
throughout the tradition of Neoplatonism. There rhetoric is assigned to the realm
of opinion (doxa) and thus is stigmatized by the qualities of deception and
manipulation, whereas philosophy deals with eternal truths (ideai) and their
cognition (episteme). In a passage of his De Oratore (III.57-61) Cicero eloquently
criticizes Socrates “for having narrowed the conception of philosophy, a discipline
which had originally included ‘the whole study and practice of the liberal sciences
(omnis rerum optimarum cognitio atque in eis exercitatio)., By his efforts,
Socrates ‘separated the science of wise thinking from that of elegant speaking,
though in reality they are closely linked together.’ From him, therefore, has
sprung ‘the undoubtedly absurd and unprofitable and reprehensible severance between
the tongue and the brain, leading to our having one set of professors to teach us
to think and another to teach us to speak.’” From this statement Wesley Trimpi
(1983: 3-4) draws the conclusion: “The separation of rhetorical from philosophical
disciplines was, for Cicero, explicitly opposed to the early paideia and to the
literature which transmitted its intentions.” Cicero’s ideal of rhetoric combines
ratio and oratio, sapientia and eloquentia, as at the beginning of his treatise De
Inventione (1.1)

In addition, the need of men for forensic eloquence must have given rise to the
evolution of the liberal art. Thus, it is an essentially republican art: one must
be accustomed to tolerating the most unusual opinions and points of view and even
to taking a certain pleasure in their counterplay; one must be just as willing to
listen as to speak; and as a listener one must be able more or less to appreciate
the art being applied. The education of the ancient man customarily culminates in
rhetoric: it is the highest spiritual activity of the well-educated political man—
an odd notion for us! (Nietzsche 1989: 3).

Man is a living being that has his true Dasein in conversation and speech. The
Greeks existed in speech. The rhetorician is the one who has true power over
Dasein: 'Ppropucq neidovg Sppiovpyog, the ability to speak is the possibility in
which I have true control over the convictions of human beings, how they are
together. In this fundamental disposition of the Greeks we find the basis for this
definition of man. Even when the Greek is reading, he is listening, and it is no
coincidence that all the texts we have of Aristotle are lectures, the spoken word.
This state of affairs, that the Greeks lived in speech, one must fully realize and
at the same time consider the following: If speech is the true possibility of
Dasein, in which it unfolds, concretely and generally, then precisely this speaking
is also the possibility in which Dasein allows itself to be ensnared into
dissolving in immediacy, in fashion, in chatter, and to letting itself be led from
there. This process of fife, to dissolve in the world, in that which is usual, to
surrender to its world, in which it lives, became for the Greeks themselves,
through speech, the fundamental peril of their Dasein. Proof of this is the
existence of sophistics. In sophistics the preponderant possibility of speaking is
taken seriously. Protagoras’s statement [is telling here]: mv if mo Aoyov Kpehtm
noietv—to discuss geometry with a geometrician even if one knows nothing of
geometry; to conduct the conversation in such a way that I can win out over the
other without expertise. Sophistics is the proof that the Greeks surrendered to
that language which Nietzsche once called “the most speakable language of all
languages.” And he must have known what Greek culture was. It should be remembered
that in the fourth century the Greeks had fallen completely under the sway of
language. (Heidegger 2002: 108-109).

Poetics in Antiquity Jeffrey Walker argues that rhetoric was derived not from the
usual and off-told forensic or political sources but from an argumentative mode
that came to be known as epideictic and that, long before Aristotle, included
poetry. For Walker, this original epideictic mode was a broadly considered practice
of artfully composed persuasive discourse: “[...] Epideiktikon, in sum, came to
include everything that modernity has tended to describe as literature, and more,
and comprised a range of genres much greater and more various than the handful of
speech-types identified as pragmatika” (2000: 7). It is this “expanded, basically
sophistic notion of epideiktikon” that, in keeping with his programmatic statement,
Walker employs and develops throughout his book. It comprises, for instance,
Gorgias’ Praise of Helen as well as the major epideictics of Isocrates, such as
Panegyricus, On the Peace, and Areopagiticus.

Earlier in the 20th century American scholars had endeavoured to recover the lost
knowledge of the relationship between rhetoric and poetry. This was first done in
historical studies on Renaissance rhetoric by such scholars as Thomas Whitfield
Baldwin, Donald Lemen Clark, Hardin Craig, William G. Crane, Morris W. Croll,
Marvin T. Herrick, Wilbur Samuel Howell, Sr. Miriam Joseph, John M. Steadman,
Rosemond Tuve, and others. This historical dimension found an adequate summary in
an anthology of essays published by James J. Murphy in 1983 under the title
Renaissance Eloquence: Studies in the Theory and Practice of Renaissance Rhetoric.
Many works of scholars who made substantial contributions to the historical
research in rhetoric and its CHAPTER ONE relations to poetics are bibliographically
registered in English Renaissance Rhetoric and Poetics: A Systematic Bibliography

In France the recovery of rhetoric for the study of poetry found several advocates.
In 1970 the Romance scholar A.S. Kibedi Varga published his monograph Rhetorique et
literature: Etude des structures classiques, which describes, among other things,
the changing effects of the rhetorical genres (genre judiciaire, genre deliberatif,
genre demonstratif) upon literary genres (poesie lyrique, tragedie) in French
literature. With their book Rhetorique de la poesie: Lecture lineaire, lecture
tabulate (1977), the Groupe Mu of Liege (Jacques Dubois et al.) approached the
subject from a more general point of view. In the same year there appeared Michel
Charles’s Rhetorique de la lecture (1977), which made an attempt at interpreting
rhetoric as a hermeneutic theory of reading literary texts. Again from a historical
viewpoint, Marc Fumaroli, in his magisterial work L’Age de Veloquence: Rhetorique

development of rhetoric. An earlier anthology of essays edited by Edward P.J.
Corbett et al. (1990) proceeds along similar lines. Together with the system of
rhetoric, Greco-Roman civilization, which we also call occidental, developed a type
of literature which was shaped by rhetoric. It is true that literary scholars have
postulated a historical limit for this type of literature, and some still consider
this legitimate.

The fact that literary critics have restricted rhetorical literature to specific
cultural periods can be viewed as a result of the pejoratively used attributes of
artificiality and insincerity, which the opponents of rhetoric have always ascribed
to it. Such literature, which would deserve to be called “rhetoricized” rather than
“rhetorical”, was afflicted with the odium of secondariness and, to a certain
extent, it still is. Its representatives are to be found in the age of Greek
Hellenism and the Silver Age of Roman culture, in Mannerism and in the Baroque Age,
in Symbolism and decadence. Owing to its specific constitution, this kind of
literature came to be discredited as artificial playfulness and “linguistic
alchemy” (Hocke 1959). For this reason it has been denied the status of poetical
classicality and has likewise not gained admission to the canon of world
literature. It is possible that the literary products of Postmodernism, whose
rhetorical character has been outlined by Paul de Man (1979) and others, will meet
a similar fate. Which concept is to be preferred, the extensive one of “rhetorical
literature” or the restricted one of “rhetoricized literature”? The answer is:
neither and both. The first concept seems too broad, the second too narrow.
Moreover, there is one aspect which is neglected in both concepts: the possible
gradation between extreme levels. Therefore, it has been proposed to speak of
rhetoricity in literature, a term coined in analogy to expressions like
“poeticity”. Jacques Bessiere (1988:38) defines it in the following manner: Ce
neologisme, qui est aussi en parti un anglicisme, indique que la rhetorique est une
maniere de faire de la literature, de la situer, et, en retour, un utile d’analyse.
II dispose que, dans le litteraire, l’hypothese d’un partage—fut-il simplement
heuristique—entre rhetorique et non- rhetorique ne vaut pas: [...].

The third dimension of rhetorical literature, which is also known as communication


or pragmatics, is concerned with precisely these different perspectives. Basically
there are two, that of the sender and the addressee. Accordingly, rhetoricity in
literature can be defined in two ways: within a hermeneutics of production or a
hermeneutics of reception.

The ground for such a dialectic had already been prepared, though in philosophy
rather than in literary criticism. In his Truth and Method (Wahrheit und Methode
[(I960]) Hans-Georg Gadamer had already carried out the hermeneutic turn. In an
exhaustive review of Gadamer’s book, Klaus Dockhorn (1966) established the
connection with rhetoric which, in two subsequent studies, was taken up by Gadamer
himself. In his article “Rhetoric, Hermeneutics, and Ideological Criticism”
(Rhetorik, Hermeneutik und Ideologiekritik [1971: 57-82]), which forms a
“metacritical” addendum to his important monograph, Gadamer aphoristically states:
37 Es gibt keinen Redner und keine Redekunst, wenn nicht Verstandi- gung und
Einverstandnis die menschlichen Beziehungen triige—es gabe keine hermeneutische
Aufgabe, wenn das Einverstandnis derer, die ,ein Gesprach sind‘, nicht gestort ware
und die Verstandigung nicht gesucht werden miisste. There would be no orators and
no rhetoric if mutual understanding and agreement did not form the basis of human
relations—there would be no hermeneutic task if the agreement of those who “are
conversing” were not disrupted and understanding did not have to be sought. And in
his “Rhetoric and Hermeneutics” (Rhetorik und Hermeneu- tik [1976]), he points to
the fact that Melanchthon had already been aware of the real benefit of the
classical ars bene dicendi, namely Dass die jungen Leute die ars bene legendi, das
heifit die Fahigkeit, Reden, langere Disputationen und vor allem Bucher und Texte
aufzu- fassen und zu beurteilen nicht entbehren konnten. That young people could
not do without the ars bene legendi, that is, the ability to understand and judge

During the 1960s and 1970s, literary rhetoric was considered the primary, if not
the only form of rhetorical studies. In the meantime, ancient domains of rhetoric
have been restored and others have been newly developed. Once more we are speaking
of the rhetoric of jurisprudence, politics, theology, stylistics, and philosophy.
Innovations are the rhetoric of psychology, feminism, the media, and very recently,
digital rhetoric (Plett 1996). But contrary to all expectations, rhetoric as a
discipline has not been reinstitutionalized—apart from a few exceptions in Europe.
Instead, rhetoric has become a multidisciplinary subject, i.e. it forms an
integrative and acknowledged area of research within those disciplines which have a
strong affinity with rhetoric. Initially, its traditional categories and concepts
were retained. But within the framework of a “new rhetoric”, their deficiencies
soon became evident. As a result, new creations have emerged, some of which have
moved far from their rhetorical origins.

As a consequence, literary rhetoric is no longer the prevailing kind of rhetoric


but only one variant among many others. In comparison to these, literary rhetoric
may be the heir to an older tradition; but this fact does not exempt it from the
need for legitimation. Legitimation can only be achieved within the framework of a
general poetics. Poetics is the definiens, rhetoric the definiendum. The profile of
literary rhetoric varies in accordance with the particular poetological model

artis): inventio, dispositio, elocutio, memoria, actio/pronuntiatio-, the three
principal functions: docere, delectare, movere; the three principal genres (genera
causae): genus iudiciale, genus deliberativum, genus demonstrativunv, the different
parts of an oration (exordium, propositio, argumentatio, per- oratio)-, the four
principles of style (virtutes elocutionis): puritas, perspi- cuitas, ornatus,
aptum-, the different levels of style (genera dicendi)-, the categories of
rhetorical figures and many other subdivisions. To the adept of rhetoric, such
terms and categories are well known. Moreover, this repertoire allows for a certain
variability. Reductions, extensions, and overlappings are possible. The fact that
there is no homogeneous terminology, only one which is partly Greek (e.g.,
metaphor, metonymy), partly Latin (e.g., alliteration, assonance), and partly
vernacular (e.g., English similitude, pun, corresponding to German Gleichnis,
Wortspiel), has had long-lasting consequences. An international norm which is
compulsory, systematic, categorical and terminological is still lacking. Of course,
there have been several attempts at standardization.

From a historical point of view all categories of rhetoric have found entrance into
theories of poetry, which in turn influenced their employment in poetic works. This
is true above all for the quinque partes artis rhetoricae, which can be traced in
numerous poetical theories and works of the Renaissance (Plett 2004).

A modern concept of allegory and rhetorical elocutio must, however, be based on


precise definitions and strictly logical foundations. This will result in a model
that can generate all possible tropes and figures. It is on such tropes and figures
that literary studies concentrate almost automatically—as negative verdicts do as
well, at least if the relationship between rhetoric and poetry is at stake.

The invention of a (metaphorical) term for a thing for which no designation as yet
exists (paupertas sermonis) receives the critical term catachresis (Lausberg 1998:
§§ 551, 562); in so far it describes a constitutional act of meaning. In recent
times it is, however, used in a more extensive manner; the sophistical readings
revolve around the double-bind of catachresis between proper/improper uses of
language as defined by speech act theory, and proper/improper uses of meaning as
circumscribed by deconstruction theory (Clot 2003; Posselt 2005).

Energeia is often confused or collated with the term enargeia or evidential its
importance is even heightened in the theory and practice of poetry from classical
Antiquity until at least the end of the eighteenth century. Francois Fenelon offers
an excellent exposition of this important stylistic category in his Second Dialogue
of his Dialogues sur Veloquence: To portray is not only to describe things but to
represent their surrounding features in so lively and so concrete a way that the
listener imagines himself almost seeing them. For example, a dispassionate
historian who tells of the death of Dido, will content himself with saying that she
was so overcome with grief after the departure of Aeneas that she could not bear to
live; and that she went upstairs in her palace, threw herself upon a pyre, and
killed herself. In listening to these words, you take in the happening, but you do
not see it. Listen to Virgil, and he will put it before your eyes. Is it not true
that, when he assembles all the surrounding features of her despair, when he shows
you the savage Dido, the lineaments of death already etched upon her face, when he
makes her speak with her eyes upon Aeneas’ portrait and upon his sword, your
imagination transports you to

Because of its general importance for the history of aesthetics and the arts,
numerous studies on this rhetorical-poetical term enargeia and its significance
have been published from the 1970s onward (Plett 1975: passim, esp. 184-193; Cave

And in Italy, Angelo Marchese’s immensely popular Dizionario di retorica e di


stilistica even in its 12th edition of 1990 (’1978) carries the significant
subtitle: “Arte e artificio nell’ uso delle parole retorica, stilistica, metrica,
teoria della letteratura.” In all tracts, whether ancient or modern, the artificial
character of the language of orators and poets has been based on the theorem of
deviation (Abweichung, ecart, aktuali- sace), according to which rhetorical or
poetical “foregrounding” stands out against the norms of everyday language, termed
“backgrounding” (Mukarovsky 1964; Kuentz 1970; Klinkenberg 1977; Fricke 1981). It
is equipped with a rhetorical-poetical secondary grammar (grammaire seconde), which
in its syntactic semiosis is characterized by two axes. These are formed by the
linguistic levels (phonological, morphological, syntactic, semantic, graphemic,
textological) on the one hand and linguistic transformations (addition,
subtraction, permutation, substitution; equivalence) on the other (cf. Leech 1970;
Dubois et al. 1970). According to this theory, metaphor, for instance, can be
defined as a semantic substitution, and parallelism as morphosyntactic equivalence.
Apart from differences in terminology, the prescriptive tracts of the past and the
structuralist models of the present age agree in this respect.

This can be achieved by taking into account the telos of both rhetoric and poetry.
Here, a clearly marked difference can be observed. At all times, rhetoric has been
governed by the practical purpose of persuasion, a term which in German is
translated in two different ways: Uberzeugung (convincing) or tJberredung
(persuading). These seem to offer two procedural alternatives: an argumentative
(logos) or an affective one (pathos). Julius Caesar Scaliger (1484-1558) in Book
1.1. “Orationis necessitas, ortus, usus, finis, cultus” (The Indispensability of
Language, its Origin, Uses, End, and Cultivation) of his Poetices libri septem
(1561) almost proclaims a kind of panrhetoric in this rhetorical question:

Irrespective of the alternative chosen, rhetoric will make use of any available
device to achieve its pragmatic end. Literature, on the other hand, does not lay
claim to an immediate situational eloquence; its essential destination lies within
its own realm, not outside of it. According to Aristotle, it is hedone, not
catharsis. Friedrich Schiller (1966 II, 341-351) uses the nicely formulated
paradox: “Pleasure in tragic things” (Vergniigen an tragischen Gegenstanden).
According to Immanuel Kant, the purpose of literature is “disinterested pleasure”
(interesseloses Wohlgefalien), or, to put it with Roman Jakobson (21964: 356),
“autotely”, which he defines as follows: The set (Einstellung) toward the MESSAGE
as such, focus on the message for its own sake, is the POETIC function of language.
[...] Poetic function is not the sole function of verbal art but only its dominant,
determining function, whereas in all other verbal activities it acts as a
subsidiary, accessory constituent. (Jakobson 21964: 356).

As regards these functional shifts, a skilful oration which has lost its immediate
persuasiveness may be an example of the former (poeticizing), and the line of a
poem which is used in an advertisement an example of the latter (rhetoricizing).
The status of elocutio in particular is affected by this scheme of fluctuating
functions. Thus, rhetorical figures and tropes may change into poetical ones. Their
specific value is defined by their telos.

A modern scientific rhetoric whose aim is not the production but the description of
texts, cannot simply take over the system of intended effects, nor their
prescriptive assignment to specific formal rhetorical features. Rather, its task
initially consists in considering the effects of texts as hermeneutical reception
phenomena. These effects may be classified according to psychological and
sociological aspects or interpreted in terms of ideological criticism and under
certain circumstances be objectified by empirical methods of measurement. The aim
of the second step of the analysis is then to relate the established effects of the
text to certain structural text features as their enabling conditions. A further
stage of analysis is devoted to clarifying the historicity of the text to be
interpreted: the concrete social environment of the author of the text, his/her
relationship to the predominant norms of argumentation and cultural environment of
his/her time, and his/ her choice of medial facilities in relation to the audience
addressed. Finally, the text analyst has to take into account that his/her own
point of view is an historical inheritance, i.e. dependent on specific
preconceptions and prejudices. In this way, prescriptive rhetoric changes into an
historic-hermeneutic rhetoric.

The question as to how a text is produced rhetoric answers by proposing a five-


phase model to describe the individual stages of text production in their temporal
sequence. This model (see Barthes 1970: 197) takes the following form (Table 2):

The reservations towards rhetorical figures can be summed up in three points:


1 Lack of system: It is claimed that rhetorical style is nothing but an arsenal of
figures that cannot be classified and that cannot claim any scientific character.
Operating with the rhetorical figures would then betray a lack of serious
scholarship. 2 Formalism: According to this objection, rhetorical figures are
equated with certain stylistic “techniques”, bloodless “schemes” or formalistic
“tricks” that are used to produce or explain certain linguistic refinements. From
this stems the notion of a “technological” or “instrumental” rhetoric
(Kopperschmidt 1973). 3 Artificiality: By this is meant that in linguistic
aesthetics the rhetorical figures confer a highly artistic if not artificial
appearance on texts, and that they then apply only to the analysis of such texts.
They are not able to generate or decipher truly “imaginative” texts but only such
extravagant ones as can be assigned to literary mannerism. These three reproaches
have contributed considerably to bring the rhetoric of figures, and rhetoric as a
whole, into disrepute. For a scholarly approach to rhetoric, this is all the more
reason to discuss them critically.

Our basic assumptions shall be as follows: A rhetorical figure represents a deviant


unit of speech, in the words of Arthur Quinn (1993: 6): “an intended deviation from
ordinary usage”. (On the problem of the deviation theorem, see Gueunier 1969 and
Spillner 1974: 31-40). Thus we have to define elocutio as a system of linguistic
deviations.

Considered semiotically—for instance, in terms of the model of C.W. Morris (1972)—


there are three classes of deviations: in the fields of syntactics (relation: sign—
sign), of pragmatics (relation: sign—sender/receiver), and of semantics (relation:
sign—reality/reality model). From them, a corresponding number of classes of
rhetorical figures can be derived: (semio-)syntactic, pragmatic, and
(semio-)semantic. The first class presupposes the existence of a grammatical model;
the other two classes, a communication model and a reality model, respectively.

A (semio-)syntactic model of the rhetorical figures consists of two components: I


linguistic operations; II linguistic levels. The linguistic operations are
contained in two types of rules: those which violate the primary linguistic norm
(licence: a-grammaticality), and those which reinforce it (equivalence: syn-
grammaticality). The two types have been explicated theoretically by various
researchers: the former type by, among others,

The operations violating the rules consist of 1) addition, 2) subtraction


(deletion), 3) substitution, and 4) permutation of signs; those reinforcing the
rules, mainly of their repetition (equivalence).

On the other hand, one has to take note of the linguistic levels of phonology,
morphology, syntax, semantics, textology and graphemics. This results in
phonological, morphological, syntactical,... figures of speech. Here, too, the
individual levels allow for further subclassifications.

Now, the rhetoric model works in such a way that the various linguistic operations
are projected onto the various language planes and there generate rhetorical units
(figures) of speech. The operational modes act here as modes of transformation:
they transform step by step the primary language norm (grammaticality) into a
secondary (rhetoricity). The methodology is “generative” in two respects:
phenomenologically and onomasiologically; phenomenologically, because the model
drafted presents a rhetorical heuristics which on a (semio-) syntactic basis
generates all conceivable deviant linguistic phenomena and makes them available for
the production/analysis of texts; onomasiologically, because the model not only
dismantles the redundancy of the traditional terminology or makes it more precise,
but it also exposes terminological vacancies which first of all have to be given
names. The generative model of figures of speech thus outlined can be visualized by
means of a matrix, the coordinates of which are respectively formed by the
linguistic operations and the linguistic levels (see the illustration in table 3).
All figures of speech of the (semio-)syntactic class can be entered into this
matrix.

If this (semio-)syntactic model is complemented by one of the pragmatic and another


of the (semio-)semantic figures, the latter two will necessarily contain the
element of deviation: in the case of pragmatics, as a deviation from the usual norm
of linguistic communication, in the case of semantics, as a deviation from the
usual norm of reality-relat- edness.

We hardly need point out that the model of rhetorical figures of speech is not the
only conceivable stylistic model. From the individual components of the
communication process further stylistic concepts can be derived: from the sender,
an expressive conception; from the recipient, an affective one; from the reality
relationship, a referential one; from the communication channel, a medial one, etc.
Compared with these, the rhetorico-stylistic model has two advantages: on the one
hand, the older tradition and thus the concrete experience gained from working with
it; on the other, its far greater explicitness and operationalizability. These two
aspects ensure that it has a certain lead over more recent models (e.g. the
register model). Whether, and to what extent, it can be integrated into these
models is a question that still has to be dealt with.

In the following discussion, let us assume the “rhetorical situation” to be the


basic unit of the analytical-practical method of description. CHAPTER FIVE It is
structured according to the Lasswell formula: “Who says what in which channel to
whom with what effect?” In other words: it is a multiform construct. It is
dominated by one guiding principle to which all other points of view are
subordinate. Let us call this principle “persuasive purpose”. This purpose may
vary, according to place, time, channel, sender and addressee. Consequently, the
rhetorical situation is subject to change. This change differs according to
cultural, social and historical circumstances. Now every cultural environment
develops its own, unmistakable rhetorical situations which cannot easily be
transposed into those of other cultural environments (Lachmann 1977, Kennedy 1998).

A further distinction is required. Rather frequently in everyday linguistic


communicative situations some forms of deviation are used quite unrhetorically,
i.e. with a non-persuasive intention. Besides unintended alliterations, anaphoras,
and parallelisms, catachresis is of particular interest. It represents the case of
the “necessary metaphor”, i.e. of a trope generated by the absence of a “direct”
designation. Examples are such expressions as the foot of a mountain, the hack of a
hook, a bottleneck. A characteristic of these cases of catachresis is the missing
contrast between a secondary and a primary norm. They form part of the
backgrounding themselves; instead of a semantic polysemy there exists a monosemy.
This possibility can also arise when metaphors become lexicalized in the course of
time (dead metaphors, ex-metaphors) and are absorbed into everyday language, e.g.
guardian of the law, head of the conspiracy. Phenomena such as these require the
constitution of another communicative situation. In contradistinction to the
rhetorical situation, let us give it the general term “unrhetorical everyday
language”. And we shall term the purposiveness dominating it information. The three
communicative situations outlined above—the defective, the unrhetorical
informative, and the persuasive—have certainly not yet been recorded completely
with regard to the pragmatic use of the deviational schemes (figures of speech).

First, it is immediately obvious that not every linguistic deviation has the status
of a rhetorical figure. For linguistic performance, especially of the oral kind, is
often characterized by faulty grammaticality. This applies to almost all linguistic
operations and planes so that it is quite possible to assess such cases as
ellipsis, anacoluthon, antisthecon, or synecdoche as phenomena of linguistic
deficiency. It is particularly people with speech impediments (e.g. aphasia) who
produce such deviations, but also children or foreign language learners. The
conclusion from this is that one has to distinguish between two kinds of
communicative situation: a defective one and a rhetorical one.

misconceptions which suggest the ideal of a natural gift of eloquence. The first
consists in the claim that the teaching of rhetorical figures is unimportant for
the effectiveness of persuasion, possibly even harmful, since experience shows that
an unadorned style is more effective than an artificial one. To this we reply with
Walter Jens (1971: 437) that “the locutio simplex can be a rhetorical style just as
well as the locutio figurata”. Indeed, it turns out that such texts as are assigned
to the sermo humilis, which occurs in texts such as the Bible, are particularly
characterized by the use of this locutio simplex (Auerbach 1941; Biihlmann/Scherer
1994).

Therefore it is not true that figuration is totally absent from the simple style;
it is merely different from the artificial style. Assuming, however, that a
persuasive text really shows a very scanty presence of the elocutionary code, then
its persuasiveness will possibly derive from some other rhetorical code, such as
the argumentative code. A persuasive text that does not activate any rhetorical
code is unthinkable.

The second erroneous opinion goes further than the first. It denies not only the
usefulness of the rhetorical elocutio but of rhetorical theory altogether; for—as
Quintilian already declared (Inst. Or. X.vii.16)—“pectus est [...], quod disertos
facit”, which explains why 83 ordinary people who have never touched a rhetorical
textbook so often act more rhetorically than a trained speaker. To this we have to
reply: Apart from the fact that this opinion is a faulty interpretation of
Quintilian, who by this statement never intended to declare the discipline he
taught as superfluous, it is quite possible that a rhetorique du peuple (Barthes)
is not based upon a production theory for persuasive texts made deliberately
available; but this possibility does not relieve the scholar of his/her obligation
to postulate a rhetoric as analytical theory for such texts. Otherwise rhetoricity
cannot be verified.

To round off this section, let us point out two concepts that make available
pragmatic possibilities for the interpretation of rhetorical figures. The first is
already quite old, dating back to Antiquity. The second concept is of more recent
origin. 1) The behaviouristic concept: In the framework of this interpretative
pattern, the rhetorical figure appears as an emotional agent which serves to give
manifest plausibility to a state of affairs when the audience has been
psychologically conditioned in a certain manner. Conventional rhetoric in the
classical tradition grouped the figures of speech according to the intensity of
their effect into “ethical” and “pathetical” schemes (Dockhorn 1968). On the basis
of modern psycholinguistic research, it should be possible to provide a more
scientific treatment of the rhetorical emotions.

2) The concept of ideological criticism: In the framework of this pragmatic


perspective, the rhetorical figure appears as the persuasive form in which certain
contents of societal consciousness guided by certain interests are articulated.
Roland Barthes (1970) calls them “myths”. He mentions tautology as thought pattern
for the “right- wing myth”, its form—the zero-content equality (x equal to x)—
excluding a priori any possibility of a change of affairs. Such results of
ideological criticism give rise to the demand for an increased investigation of
rhetorical figures in the particular social context which generates them. This can
be interpreted as metalinguistic or metarhetorical texts. Parallelism, antithesis,
oxymoron, metaphor—to name but a few—seem to be especially suitable for such an
interpretation (Skreb 1968; Enzensberger 1962; Kopperschmidt 1972). 85

In classical Antiquity metaphonemes went under the name of barbarism[o]i, “offence

479). As a feature of poetic license, however, they were called metaplasms. They
are classified according to four categories of change: addition, subtraction,
permutation and substitution. Phonotactically speaking, the change can take place
at the beginning, in the middle, or at the end of a morphological unit.

French “hynoptisme” (instead of hypnotisme). A famous example from Shakespeare’s

The syntactic variant of metathesis is formed by the so-called “spoonerism” (named


after its originator, the Oxford don W.A. Spooner [1844-1930]), which consists in
the interchange of initial phonemes, such as “half-warmed fish” (instead of “half-

Mayoral (1994: 54) cites the following word pairs: “catedra”—“catreda”;

b) Substitutive phonic figures often lead to a play on words. This occurs when the
substitution of one or more phonemes is accompanied by semantic changes. In the
following examples the “background” of the deviation is formed by linguistic
conventions (semantic, syntactic, morphological). Thus, the title of the cabaret
program Die ehr- bare Bime (“The Honest Pear”) as a paradigmatic wordplay upon
Sartre’s (well-known) drama title, Die ehrbare Dime (“The Honest Prostitute”)
represents a semantic deviation and, at the same time, forms a transformed semantic
figure (metaphor).

1.1.2.4 Frequency Phonological recurrence can be measured, on the one hand, with
respect to the language as a whole and, on the other, with regard to one or more
texts. The first case is what Mukarovsky has in mind when he writes that “the
euphonic validity of a given sound is dependent not only on the number of
repetitions but also on its relative frequency compared to its normal frequency”
(cited by Levy 1969: 214). It is therefore a valid statement to make that in the
verse Wir singen und sagen vom Grafen so gem, the ^-alliteration stands out more
than the 5-alliteration because the consonant g occurs less frequently in German.
The restriction “in German” is important since the measured relationships in
various languages differ considerably.

1.1.2.5 Distribution When dealing with the aspect of frequency we ignored one
important factor almost completely: the distribution of the phonological
equivalence in the text. Yet this factor is of crucial relevance to the
determination of the structural aspect of linguistic phonaestheticity. For
instance, one distributional observation one could make is that in the Ennius verse
quoted (5), each of the eight words except the first has a t as initial consonant;
the result is a sevenfold alliteration.

In all sustained spoken English we sense a rhythm, that is, a recognisable though
variable pattern in the beat of the stresses in the stream of sound. If this rhythm
of stresses is structured into a recurrence of regular—that is, approximately

Larger prosodic repeat units arise from a sequence of several verses. By tradition,
any sequence that constantly repeats the same accent pattern is called “stichic.”
One generally distinguishes between the monostichon (one verse line), the distichon
(two verse lines), the CHAPTER ONE tristichon (three verse lines), the tetrastichon
(four verse lines), and so on. A more complex equivalence structure is shown by the
strophe-, it is determined not only by the varying lengths of the verse lines and
the variation of the accent figures, but partly also by the many varieties of
rhyme. As an example, we cite the Sapphic strophe: Its metrical

Let us draw some conclusions from the above discussion: a survey of the
phonological figures shows that they represent a rather differentiated instrument
for “orchestrating” a text. In contrast to figures that violate grammar
(metaphonemes), we have those that make full use of the possibilities of repeat
equivalent phonemes and phoneme combinations. Where the phonological equivalence
figures (isophonemes) meet somewhere in a text, this creates a texture of high
poetic density that can even be further intensified by graphemic, morphological,
syntactic and semantic factors. Admittedly, the possibility that continuous
repetition of the same equivalence classes can lead to a structural monotony that
threatens the recipient with fatigue also exists. That is counteracted by secondary
deviation as a principle of variation. If pursued consistently, it offers a basis
for a change of the phonaesthetic norm. The best proof of this claim is offered by
the innovation of vers libre (Hrushovski 1968). In chapter 37, “On the Aesthetics
of Poetry,” of his great work The World as Will and Representation (Die Welt als
Wille und Vorstellung) the German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860) gives
what can be regarded as another summary of the present chapter on phonological
figures: Metre and rhyme are a fetter, but also a veil which the poet casts round
himself, and under which he is permitted to speak as otherwise he would not dare to
do; and this is what delights us. Thus he is only half responsible for all that he
says. Metre and rhyme must answer for the other half. Metre or measure, as mere
rhythm, has its essence only in time, which is a pure intuition a priori; hence, in
the language of Kant, it belongs merely to pure sensibility. Rhyme, on the other
hand, is a matter of sensation in the organ of hearing, and thus of empirical
sensibility. Therefore, rhythm is a much nobler and worthier expedient than rhyme,
which the ancients accordingly despised, and which found its origin in the
imperfect languages resulting from the corruption of the earlier languages of
barbarous times (Schopenhauer 1958, II 427-428). This explication on the sound
structure of poetry can be termed a brief contribution to its pragmatics.

A special case is that of haplology, the contamination of two (or more) words
accompanied by the loss of individual elements of at least one word. Hans Marchand
(1969: 451) describes the generating process of such word hybrids (“blends”)
concisely as “compounding by means of curtailed words.” This paves the way for a
broad range of variations of these linguistic phenomena which—as coined by Lewis
Carroll—are also called portmanteau words. Well-known representatives are found in

Standard languages usually originated in a certain part of the language region


concerned: Standard Italian in Tuscany; Standard French in the Isle de France;
Standard English in the environment of the London- Oxbridge triangle; Standard
German in Electoral Saxony. The dialects of those areas were raised to become the
coded norm of a common language, while the remaining dialects, originally on the
same cultural footing, deteriorated to subcodes. If now such subcodes undergo
literary activation, they acquire the character of the unusual and rare, whether as
texts in local idiom as distinct from other literary texts or as dialect inclusions

Herder’s translation, almost unanimously praised by critics as a brilliant


equivalent of the English ballad, fails to reproduce the distinctive dialectal
features of this poem, which for some readers represents a loss in poetic power.
Similarly, in translations of Greek tragedies it is often forgotten that the choral
songs are cast in the Dorian dialect and thereby differ from the Attic of the
dialogues. It is equally impossible to reproduce the Old Ionian dialect of the
Homeric epic adequately and to distinguish the New Ionian dialect of the historian
Herodotus from the Attic dialect of the historian Thucydides. In such cases and
others, one tacitly operates with the assumption of a common linguistic standard
that, however, did not exist when the texts were written. A modern effort to do
justice to the dialect of a work of literature is shown by the attempts to
transcribe the London slang of the flower girl Eliza in the musical My Fair Lady
(based on G.B. Shaw’s drama Pygmalion) into the local dialect of the region
wherever the play may be staged (e.g., in Berlin, Cologne, or Bavaria).

The distinction between artificial archaisms (deliberately used) and natural
archaisms (arising from the diachronic text progression) is not always an easy one;
it requires a study of historical grammar and of the historical vocabulary. The
appearance of ever new “natural” archaisms causes texts to gain in poeticity as
they become older. From this point of view, the works by Shakespeare, Racine and
Goethe are more poetic nowadays than they were at the time they were produced
(Klinkenberg 1970).

What is clear is that type (a) corresponds to anaphora, type (b) to epiphora, and
type (d) to anadiplosis. However, we have to ask ourselves whether, for instance,
types (c), (f) and (i) could still fall under the category of anaphora or whether
one should not, for the sake of precision, adopt new terminology.

The identity of a word-repetition can be disturbed not only by morphological


deviations. The reason is that any word has phonological, graphemic and semantic
aspects. If one or more of these aspects change and the others remain constant,
then the morphological equivalence contains a wordplay. If we designate word
aspects that remain the same by the prefix homo- (or iso-), and those that are
altered by the prefix hetero-, then we obtain the following possibilities:

The structural patterns of (c) and (d) are also known by the names synonym and
homonym or polyseme (Ullmann 1968). Whereas (f) is relatively irrelevant, (c) and
(e) belong to the realm of semantic and graphemic figures, respectively. In cases
(a), (b) and (d) we speak of homophonic (isophonic), homographic (isographic) and
homonymous or polysemic wordplay; here we have to do with repetition-forms with
different meaning in each case. As a result these plays on words display different
kinds of ambiguity. The context in which equivalent word-forms are embedded
performs a signal function. The description that follows is devoted to an
explication of this and other significant types of wordplay.

This means that the wordplay finds its realisation in the sequence of the textual
succession. An example would be Antony’s lament over Caesar in Shakespeare’s Julius
Caesar (III.i.207-208): (55) O World! thou wast the Forrest to this Hart, And this
indeed, O World, the Hart of thee, where the first Hart is the male deer, while the
second is “heart”—in the Folio edition here quoted this is an homonymous wordplay
but in modern editions, with the printed rendition hart/heart, a homophonic
wordplay.

you have). After sex, what can you two talk about... @? Well, you wrote a few
books, you wrote a famous play, and even that was half ghosted. You

Humboldt had sent me one of his unsigned post cards. "Shoveleer! Your name is now

our many discussions of Joyce's view of language, of the poet's passion for
charging speech with music and meaning, of the dangers that hover about all the

Humboldt. The Germans tried to honor him. He was invited to Berlin in 1952 to
lecture at the Free University. He wouldn't go. He was afraid of being abducted by
the GPU or the NKVD. He was a longtime contributor to the Partisan Review and a
prominent anti-Stalinist, so he was afraid that the Russians would try to kidnap
and kill him. "Also, if I spent a year in Germany I'd be thinking of one thing
only," he stated publicly (i was the only one listening"). "For twelve months I'd
be a Jew and nothing else. I can't afford to give an entire year to that." But I
think a better explanation is that he was having a grand time being mad in New
York.

The leading sentiment naturally inspired by the scenes of this drama is, I believe,
that of delighted wonder. And such, as appears from the heroine's name, Miranda,
who is the potency of the drama, is probably the sentiment which the play was meant
to inspire. But the grace and efficacy in which the workmanship is steeped are so
etherial and so fine, that they can hardly be discoursed in any but the poetic form
: it may well be doubted whether Criticism has any fingers delicate enough to grasp
them. So much is this the case, that it seemed to me quite doubtful whether I
should do well to undertake the theme at all. For Criticism is necessarily obliged
to substitute, more or less, the forms of logic for those of art; and art, it
scarce need be said, can do many things that are altogether beyond the reach of
logic. On the other hand, the charm and verdure of these scenes are so unwithering
and inexhaustible, that I could not quite make up my mind to leave the subject
untried. Nor do I know how I can better serve my countrymen than by engaging and
helping them in the study of this great inheritance of natural wisdom and
unreproved delight. For, assuredly, if they early learn to be at home and to take
pleasure in Shakespeare's workmanship, their whole after-life will be the better
and the happier for it.

educed what was in him. Even his poetry is, for the most part, made up of the
fascinations of ugliness ; a sort of inverted beauty; the poetry of dissonance and
deformity; the proper music of his nature being to curse, its proper laughter to
snarl. Schlegel finely compares his mind to a dark cave, into which the light of
knowledge falling neither illuminates nor warms it, but only serves to put in
motion the poisonous vapours generated there.

70 Blue-eyed and blue eyes were used, not for what we so designate, but for
blueness about the eyes. So, in As You Like It, iii. 2, we have " a blue eye, and a
sunken," to denote a gaunt, haggard, and cadaverous look. And so, in the text,
blue-eyed is used as signifying extreme ugliness. In the Poet's time, what we call
blue eyes were commonly called gray, and were considered eminently beautiful.

dawnings of understanding, without reason or the moral sense; and in him, as in
some brute animals, this advance to the intellectual faculties, without the moral
sense, is marked by the appearance of vice. For it is in the primacy of the moral
being only that man is truly human; in his intellectual powers he is certainly
approached by the brutes; and, man's whole system duly considered, those powers
cannot be viewed as other than means to an end, that is, morality."

Owing to the T B I connected breathing with joy, and owing to the gloom of the ward
I connected joy with light, and owing to my irrationality I related light on the
walls to light inside me. I appear to have become a Hallelujah and Glory type.
Furthermore (concluding) America is a didactic country whose people always offer
their personal experiences as a helpful lesson to the rest, hoping to hearten them
and to do them good--an intensive sort of personal public-relations project. There
are times when I see this as idealism. There are other times when it looks to me
like pure delirium. With everyone sold on the good how does all the evil get done?
When Humboldt called me an ingenu, wasn't this what he was getting at?
Crystallizing many evils in himself, poor fellow, he died as an example, his legacy
a question addressed to the public. The death question itself, which Walt Whitman
saw as the question of questions.

My mind was in one of its Chicago states. How should I describe this phenomenon? In
a Chicago state I infinitely lack something, my heart swells, I feel a tearing
eagerness. The sentient part of the soul wants to express itself. There are some of
the symptoms of an overdose of caffeine. At the same time I have a sense of being
the instrument of external powers. They are using me either as an example of human
error or as the mere shadow of desirable things to come. I drove. The huge pale
lake washed forward. To the east was a white Siberian sky and McCormick Place, like
an aircraft carrier, moored at the shore. Life had withdrawn from the grass. It had
its wintry buff color. Motorists swerved up alongside to look at the
Mercedes, so incredibly mutilated.

He was a most important underworld personality, so high in the organization that he

Among the members only he and I wore tailored shirts with necktie loops
on the underside of the collar. By these loops we were in some sense joined.
As in a savage tribe I once read about in which, after childhood,

It interprets a parenthesis as a possibility of establishing a second level of


communication that can be used by the speaker with an expressive, reflective,
persuasive, or commentarial intention (see Kuznec/Skrebnev SYNTACTIC FIGURES 185
1968: 91-92). In this way the communication differential between the first and
second communication levels becomes what is normally called tension.

puesto que en vez de una sola cara poseia tres, accionadas por una manivela que
tenia en la cabeza. Al girarla, aparecian alternadamente los distintos rostros,
cada uno de los cuales mostraba una expresion diferente. Cuando la cara son- riente
estaba a la vista, las otras quedaban ocultas bajo la gorrita de felpa. A la

Como el pequeno era rapido en resolver los problemas que el senor Aguiar le
planteaba, y este se impacientara porque a cada mo- mento el chico lo interrumpia,
empezo Augusto, para tardar mas tiempo, a dibujar al pie de las cifras y de las
frases. Al inicio fueron simples puntos de colores, luego figuras ornamentales, y
finalmente dibujos que lo absorbian de tal modo que esta vez era Aguiar quien debia
llamarlo. En un principio, el farmaceutico lo regano por «decorar» las pa- ginas,
cuando su obligacion era presentarlas impecables; pero con el tiempo comenzo a
interesarse mas por los dibujos que por el resultado de las operaciones. Sobre todo
que, a medida que estos prosperaban, los numeros empezaron a arrojar resultados

La quietud de la tarde, la intensidad queconfierea los ambientes la pobreza, tan


justa ordenadora y coleccionista de obje- tos adecuados, eran un deleite para el
artista, que, a pesar de su corta edad, presentia que en lugares asepticos como el
interior de la drogueria era imposible encontrar sombras sugerentes, colores
profundos y composiciones caprichosas, como alii, junto a las papas y las frutas,
que se destacaban nitidas del hollin y la patina de los muros. Cuando sus ojos, al
incursionar en el fondo del almacen al que la falta de luz conferia una distancia
infinita, encontraban algun tiesto que defendia a duras penas su tono, o una taza
blanca, quc por contrastc la oscuri- dad realzaba, el, con una vehemencia que
desconcertaba a los parroquianos, intenlaba con sus precarios materiales atraparlos
en toda su plenitud. Sabia que al entregar al senor Aguiar esos trabajos trasladaba
de 188 lugar una realidad, adquiriendo aquellos dibujos y bocetos, captados en
ambientes tan proximos a la naturaleza, una gran categoria. — jLa realidad!

Intuyendo Aguiar que las cosas tomarian otro giro, ya que el ni- no muy pronto
dejaria de serlo, pensb que a modo de secreta despedi- da resultaria conveniente
llevarlo a Santiago. Antes le hizo confeccio- nar por la senorita Toro un abrigo
escoc£s, al que ella, por su cuenta y sin respelar la moda, le agrego una pequena
esclavina del mismo gene- ro y una gorra con visera. Aguiar, habituado a la
indumentaria de los pintores malditos de Montmartre, quedo encantado con la
apariencia un tanto anacronica de su pupilo.

precisely by Gregory Nazianzen, and it is a quite remarkable name since [Gregory]


called the pastorate, oikonomia psuchon, that is to say, the economy of souls.[76]
In other words, this Greek notion of economy,^ which was found in Aristotle and at
that time designated the typical management of the family, of its goods and wealth,
the management or direction of slaves, of the wife, and of children, and possibly
the management,i if you like, of clients, takes on a completely different dimension
and a completely different field of references with the pastorate. It assumes a
different dimension since in comparison with the fundamentally family economy in
the Greeks - oikos is habitat - [the economy of souls] will take on the dimension,
if not of all humanity, at least of the whole of Christendom.

“Economy” is evidently not the French word best suited to translate oikonomia
psuchon. The Latins translated it as regimen animarum, “government or regimen
(régime) of souls,” which is not bad, but it is clear that in French we either
benefit from or are the victims of, have the advantage or disadvantage, as you
prefer, of possessing a word whose ambiguity is nonetheless quite interesting for
translating this economy of souls. What’s more, the word, with its ambiguity, was
introduced relatively recently and we only begin to find it in the two meanings I
am now going to talk about from the end of the sixteenth and [the start of] the
seventeenth century§;

“conduct” refers to two things. Conduct is the activity of conducting (conduire),


of conduction (la conduction) if you like, but it is equally the way in which one
conducts oneself (se conduit), lets oneself be conducted (se laisse conduire), is
conducted (est conduit), and finally, in which one behaves (se comporter) as an
effect of a form of conduct (une conduite) as the action of conducting or of
conduction (conduction)[78] I think the least bad translation for the oikonomia
psuchon Gregory Nazianzen spoke about could perhaps be the conduct of souls, and I
think that this notion of conduct, with the field it covers, is doubtless one of
the fundamental elements introduced into Western society by the Christian
pastorate.

The pastorate was formed against a sort of intoxication of religious behavior,


examples of which are found throughout the Middle East in the second, third, and
fourth centuries, and to which certain Gnostic sects in particular bear striking
and indisputable testimony.[80] In at least some of these Gnostic sects, in fact,
the identification of matter with evil, the fact that matter was seen, recognized,
and qualified as evil, and as absolute evil, obviously entailed certain
consequences. This might be, for example, a kind of vertigo or enchantment provoked
by a sort of unlimited asceticism that could lead to suicide: freeing oneself from
matter as quickly as possible. There is also the idea, the theme, of destroying
matter through the exhaustion of the evil it contains, of committing every possible
sin, going to the very end of the domain of evil opened up by matter, and thus
destroying matter. Let us sin, then, and sin to infinity. There is also the theme
of the nullification of the world of the law, to destroy which one must first
destroy the law, that is to say, break every law. One must respond to every law
established by the world, or by the powers of the world, by violating it,
systematically breaking the law and, in effect, overthrowing the reign of the one
who created the world. To the creator of the material world, Yahweh, who accepted
Abel’s sacrifices and refused Cain’s, who loved Jacob and hated Esau, and who
punished Sodom, we must respond by preferring Cain’s sacrifices, loving Esau and
hating Jacob, and by glorifying Sodom.

These revolts of conduct are often linked up with the problem of women and their
status in society, in civil society or in religious society. You see these revolts
of conduct flourish in convents, in the movement that is called Rhenish
Nonnenmystik in the twelfth century.[82] There are also all those groups formed
around women prophets in the Middle Ages, like Jeanne Dabenton,1 Marguerite
Porete,! and so on. Later, you see them in those curious semi-fashionable and semi-
popular groups of conduct, or rather of spiritual direction, in sixteenth century
Spain with Isabelle de la Cruz,§ or in France with Armelle Nicolas,[83] Marie des

these revolts of conduct may well be specific in their form and objective, but
whatever the identifiable character of their specificity, they are never
autonomous, they never remain autonomous. And then, from start to finish, the
English Revolution of the seventeenth century, with all the complexity of its
institutional conflicts, class confrontations, and economic problems, allows us to
see a quite special dimension of the resistance of conduct, of conflicts around the

First, waging war. For a long time, let’s say in the seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries, apart from those for whom being a man of war was a status (broadly
speaking the nobility), waging war was more or less, often less rather than more, a
voluntary occupation, and to that extent military recruitment allowed scope for a
whole series of resistances, refusals, and desertions. Desertion was an absolutely
ordinary practice in all the armies of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
But when waging war became not just a profession or even a general law, but an
ethic and the behavior of every good citizen of a country, when being a soldier was
a form of political and moral conduct, a sacrifice, a devotion to the common cause
and common * John Huss (Jan Hus) (?1370-1415). Ordained priest in 1400, dean of
the Prague Faculty of Theology the following year, he is the most illustrious
representative of the reforming tendency arising from the crisis of the Czech
Church in the middle of the fourteenth century. He translated the Gospels into
Czech and, according to him, these are the only infallible rule of faith and preach
evangelical poverty. An admirer of Wyclif, whose condemnation he refused to accept,
he lost the support of King Wenceslas IV and, excommunicated (1411, then 1412), he
withdrew into southern Bohemia where, among other writings, he wrote De ecclesia
(1413). Having refused to retract during the Council of Constance, he died at the
stake in 1415. See, Cohn, The Pursuit of the Millennium, pp. 219-221; Jean Boulier,
Jean Hus (Paris: Club français du Livre, 1958); P. De Vooght, L’Hérésie de Jean
Huss (Louvain: Bureau de la Revue d’histoire ecclésiastique, 1960 [followed by an
appendix volume Hussiana]); M. Spinka, John Hus’ Concept of the Church (Princeton,
NJ: Princeton University Press, 1966). t On these revolts of conduct based on the
interpretation of Scripture, see the Foucault’s lecture, “Qu’est-ce que la
critique? [Critique et Aufklärung]” given on 27 May 1978, Bulletin de la Société

of 15 February, note 45. salvation directed by a public conscience and public
authority within the framework of a tight discipline; when being a soldier was
therefore no longer just a destiny or a profession but a form of conduct, then, in
addition to the old desertion-offence, you see a different form of desertion that I
will call desertion-insubordination. Refusing to be a soldier and to spend some
time in this profession and activity, refusing to bear arms, appears as a form of
conduct or as a moral counter-conduct, as a refusal of civic education, of
society’s values, a refusal of a certain obligatory relationship to the nation and
the nation’s salvation, of the actual political system of the nation, and as a
refusal of the relationship to the death of others and of oneself. You see then
that a phenomenon of resistance of conduct appears here that no longer has the old
form of desertion and that is not without analogy with some of the phenomena of
resistance of religious conduct [that we have seen in the][85] Middle Ages.

The U.S. Constitution, as Jefferson said, is the one best calibrated for extensive
Empire. We should emphasize once again that this Constitution is imperial and not
imperialist. It is imperial because (in contrast to imperialism’s project always to
spread its power linearly in closed spaces and invade, destroy, and subsume subject
countries within its sovereignty) the U.S. constitutional project is constructed on
the model of rearticulating an open space and reinventing incessantly diverse and
singular relations in networks across an unbounded terrain.

There is a long tradition of modern critique dedicated to denouncing the dualisms


of modernity. The standpoint of that critical tradition, however, is situated in
the paradigmatic place of modernity itself, both ‘‘inside’’ and ‘‘outside,’’ at the
threshold or the point of crisis. What has changed in the passage to the imperial
world, however, is that this border place no longer exists, and thus the modern
critical strategy tends no longer to be effective.

Modern republicanism has long been characterized by a combination of realistic


foundations and utopian initiatives. Republican projects are always solidly rooted
within the dominant historical process, but they seek to transform the realm of
politics that thus creates an outside, a new space of liberation. The three highest
examples of this critical tradition of modern political theory, in our opinion, are
Machiavelli, Spinoza, and Marx. Their thought is always grounded within the real
processes of the constitution of modern sovereignty, attempting to make its
contradictions explode and open the space for an alternative society. The outside
is constructed from within.

The limitations ofthese critiques become clear when we question their power to
transform not only the objective we are aiming for, but also the standpoint of
critique. One brief example should be sufficient to illustrate this difficulty. The
fifth part of Spinoza’s Ethics is perhaps the highest development of the modern
critique ofmodernity. Spinoza takes on the theoretical challenge to establish full
knowledge of truth and discover the path of the liberation of the body and the
mind, positively, in the absolute. All other modern metaphysical positions,
particularly those transcendental positions of which Descartes and Hobbes are the
first major representatives, are inessential and mystificatory with respect to this
project of liberation. Spinoza’s primary objective is the ontological development
of the unity of true knowledge and the powerful body along with the absolute
construction of singular and collective immanence. Never before had philosophical
thought so radically undermined the traditional dualisms of European metaphysics,
and never before, consequently, had it so powerfully challenged the political
practices of transcendence and domination. Every ontology that does not bear the
stamp of human creativity is cast aside. The desire (cupiditas) that rules the
course of the existence and action of nature and humans is made love (amor)—which
invests at once both the natural and the divine. And yet, in this final part of the
Ethics, this utopia has only an abstract and indefinite relation to reality. At
times, setting out from this high level of ontological development, Spinoza’s
thought does attempt to confront reality, but the ascetic proposal halts, stumbles,
and disappears in the mystical attempt to reconcile the language of reality and
divinity. Finally, in Spinoza as in the other great modern critics of modernity,
the search for an outside seems to run aground and propose merely phantasms of
mysticism, negative intuitions of the absolute.

The outside has also declined in terms of a rather different modern dialectic that
defined the relation between public and private in liberal political theory. The
public spaces of modern society, which constitute the place of liberal politics,
tend to disappear in the postmodern world. According to the liberal tradition, the
modern individual, at home in its private spaces, regards the public as its
outside. The outside is the place proper to politics, where the action of the
individual is exposed in the presence of others and there seeks recognition.7 In
the process of postmodernization, however, such public spaces are increasingly
becoming privatized. The urban landscape is shifting from the modern focus on the
common square and the public encounter to the closed spaces of malls, freeways, and
gated communities. The architecture and urban planning of megalopolises such as Los
Angeles and Sao Paolo have tended to limit public access and interaction in such a
way as to avoid the chance encounter of diverse populations, creating a series of
protected interior and isolated spaces.8

The striated space of modernity constructed places that were continually engaged in
and founded on a dialectical play with their outsides. The space of imperial
sovereignty, in contrast, is smooth. It might appear to be free of the binary
divisions or striation of modern boundaries, but really it is crisscrossed by so
many fault lines that it only appears as a continuous, uniform space. In this
sense, the clearly defined crisis of modernity gives way to an omnicrisis in the
imperial world. In this smooth space of Empire, there is no place of power—it is
both everywhere and nowhere. Empire is an ou-topia, or really a non-place.

We should look more closely, however, at how imperial racist theory operates.
Etienne Balibar calls the new racism a differentialist racism, a racism without
race, or more precisely a racism that does not rest on a biological concept of
race. Although biology is abandoned as the foundation and support, he says, culture
is made to fill the role that biology had played.15 We are accustomed to thinking
that nature and biology are fixed and immutable but that culture is plastic and
fluid: cultures can change historically and mix to form infinite hybrids. From the
perspective of imperial racist theory, however, there are rigid limits to the
flexibility and compatibility of cultures. Differences between cultures and
traditions are, in the final analysis, insurmountable. It is futile and even
dangerous, according to imperial theory, to allow cultures to mix or insist that
they do so: Serbs and Croats, Hutus and Tutsis, African Americans and Korean
Americans must be kept separate. As a theory of social difference, the cultural
position is no less ‘‘essentialist’’ than the biological one, or at least it
establishes an equally strong theoretical ground for social separation and
segregation. Nonetheless, it is a pluralist theoretical position: all cultural
identities are equal in principle. This pluralism accepts all the differences of
who we are so long as we agree to act on the basis of these differences of
identity, so long as we act our race.

The material practices set out for the subject in the context of the institution
(be they kneeling down to pray or changing hundreds of diapers) are the production
processes of subjectivity. In a reflexive way, then, through its own actions, the
subject is acted on, generated. Second, the institutions provide above all a
discrete place (the home, the chapel, the classroom, the shop floor) where the
production of subjectivity is enacted. The various institutions of modern society
should be viewed as an archipelago of factories of subjectivity. In the course of a
life, an individual passes linearly into and out of these various institutions
(from the school to the barracks to the factory) and is formed by them. The
relation between inside and outside is fundamental. Each institution has its own
rules and logics of subjectivation: ‘‘School tells us, ‘You’re not at home
anymore’; the army tells us, ‘You’re not in school anymore.’ ’’18 Nevertheless,
within the walls of each institution the individual is at least partially shielded
from the forces of the other institutions; in the convent one is normally safe from
the apparatus of the family, at home one is normally out of reach of factory
discipline. This clearly delimited place of the institutions is reflected in the
regular and fixed form of the subjectivities produced. In the passage to imperial
society, the first aspect of the modern condition is certainly still the case, that
is, subjectivities are still produced in the social factory. In fact, the social
institutions produce subjectivity in an ever more intense way. We might say that
postmodernism is what you have when the modern theory of social constructivism is
taken to its extreme and all subjectivity is recognized as artificial. How is this
possible, however, when today, as nearly everyone says, the institutions in
question are everywhere in crisis and continually breaking down? This general
crisis does not necessarily mean that the institutions no longer produce
subjectivity. What has changed, rather, is the second condition: that is, the place
of the production of subjectivity is no longer defined in this same way. The crisis
means, in other words, that today the enclosures that used to define the limited
space of the institutions have broken down so that the logic that once functioned
primarily within the institutional walls now spreads across the entire social
terrain. Inside and outside are becoming indistinguishable. This omni-crisis of the
institutions looks very different in different cases. For example, continually
decreasing proportions of the U.S. population are involved in the nuclear family,
while steadily increasing proportions are confined to prisons. Both institutions,
however, the nuclear family and the prison, are equally in crisis, in the sense
that the place of their effectivity is increasingly indeterminate. One should not
think that the crisis of the nuclear family has brought a decline in the forces of
patriarchy. On the contrary, discourses and practices of ‘‘family values’’ seem to
be everywhere across the social field. The old feminist slogan ‘‘The personal is
the political’’ has been reversed in such a way that the boundaries between public
and private have fractured, unleashing circuits of control throughout the
‘‘intimate public sphere.’’19 In a similar way the crisis of the prison means that
carceral logics and techniques have increasingly spread to other domains of
society. The production of subjectivity in imperial society tends not to be limited
to any specific places. One is always still in the family, always still in school,
always still in prison, and so forth. In the general breakdown, then, the
functioning of the institutions is both more intensive and more extensive. The
institutions work even though they are breaking down—and perhaps they work all the
better the more they break down. The indefiniteness of the place of the production
corresponds to the indeterminacy of the form of the subjectivities produced. The
imperial social institutions might be seen, then, in a fluid process of the
generation and corruption of subjectivity.

In a certain sense, then, the colonial might be considered more ideological and the
imperial more pragmatic. Consider as an example of imperial strategy the practice
of New England factories and Appalachian coal mines at the beginning of the
twentieth century. The factories and mines were dependent on the labor of recent
immigrants from various European countries, many of whom carried with them
traditions of intense worker militancy. Bosses, however, did not shy away from
bringing together this potentially explosive mixture of workers. They found, in
fact, that carefully managed proportions of workers from different national
backgrounds in each workshop and each mine proved to be a powerful formula of
command. The linguistic, cultural, and ethnic differences within each work force
were stabilizing because they could be used as a weapon to combat worker
organization. It was in the bosses' interest that the melting pot not dissolve
identities and that each ethnic group continue to live in a separate community
maintaining its differences.

The genuine realist, if he is an unbeliever, will always find strength and ability
to disbelieve in the miraculous, and if he is confronted with a miracle as an
irrefutable fact he would rather disbelieve his own senses than admit the fact.
Even if he admits it, he admits it as a fact of nature till then unrecognized by
him. Faith does not, in the realist, spring from the miracle but the miracle from
faith. If the realist once believes, then he is bound by his very realism to admit
the miraculous also. The Apostle Thomas said that he would not believe till he saw,
but when he did see he said, “My Lord and my God!” Was it the miracle forced him to
believe? Most likely not, but he believed solely because he desired to believe and
possibly he fully believed in his secret heart even when he said, “I do not believe
till I see.”

William Archer, Kenneth Rowe, and John Howard Lawson wrote excellent books on
dramaturgy and the prose arts. Their method was intrinsic, drawing strength from
the big-muscle movements of desire, forces of antagonism, turning points, spine,
progression, crisis, climax—story seen from the inside out.

The “personal story” is understructured, slice-of-life portraiture that mistakes


verisimilitude for truth. This writer believes that the more precise his
observation of day-to-day facts, the more accurate his reportage of what actually
happens, the more truth he tells. But fact, no matter how minutely observed, is
truth with a small “t.” Big “T” Truth is located behind, beyond, inside, below the
surface of things, holding reality together or tearing it apart, and cannot be
directly observed. Because this writer sees only what is visible and factual, he is
blind to the truth of life.

Joan is unique—Anouilh’s spiritual Joan, Shaw’s witty Joan, Brecht’s political
Joan, Dreyer’s suffering Joan, Hollywood’s romantic warrior. In Shakespeare’s hands

CONSISTENT REALITIES are fictional settings that establish modes of interaction


between characters and their world that are kept consistently throughout the
telling to create meaning. Virtually all works in the Fantasy genre, for example,
are Archplots in which whimsical rules of “reality” are strictly obeyed. Suppose
that in WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT a human character were to chase Roger, a cartoon
character, toward a locked door. Suddenly Roger flattens into two dimensions,
slides under the sill, and escapes. The human slams into the door, Fine. But now
this becomes a story rule: No human can catch Roger because he can switch to two
dimensions and escape. Should the writer want Roger caught in a future scene, he
would have to devise a nonhuman agent or go back to rewrite the previous chase.
Having created story rules of causality, the writer of an Archplot must work within
his self-created discipline. Consistent Reality, therefore, means an internally
consistent world, true to itself. INCONSISTENT REALITIES are settings that mix
modes of interaction so that the story’s episodes jump inconsistently from one
“reality” to another to create a sense of absurdity.

THE PRINCIPLE OF CREATIVE LIMITATION Limitation is vital. The first step toward a
well-told story is to create a small, knowable world. Artists by nature crave
freedom, so the principle that the structure/setting relationship restricts
creative choices may stir the rebel in you. With a closer look, however, you’ll see
that this relationship couldn’t be more positive. The constraint that setting
imposes on story design doesn’t inhibit creativity; it inspires it.

may or may not need hidden dimensions, but principals must be written in depth—they

The function of STRUCTURE is to provide progressively building pressures that force


characters into more and more difficult dilemmas where they must make more and more
difficult risk-taking choices and actions, gradually revealing their true natures,
even down to the unconscious self. The function of CHARACTER is to bring to the
story the qualities of characterization necessary to convincingly act out choices.
Put simply, a character must be credible: young enough or old enough, strong or
weak, worldly or naive, educated or ignorant, generous or selfish, witty or dull,
in the right proportions. Each must bring to the story the combination of qualities
that allows an audience to believe that the character could and would do what he
does. Structure and character are interlocked. The event structure of a story is
created out of the choices that characters make under pressure and the actions they
choose to take, while characters are the creatures who are revealed and changed by
how they choose to act under pressure.

The terms ‘dialectical method’ and ‘dialectical logic’ are apt to mislead. Neither
in Hegel nor in Marx is dialectical thinking really a set of procedures for
inquiry, still less a set of rules for generating or justifying results. Only harm
can be done by representing dialectic as analogous to formal logic or mathematics
(witness Alexander Herzen’s famous but asinine description of the Hegelian
dialectic as the ‘algebra of revolution’). Instead, dialectic is best viewed as a
general conception of the sort of intelligible structure the world has to offer,
and consequently a program for the sort of theoretical structure which would best
capture it. But this means that the Hegelian dialectic cannot be separated from
Hegel’s vision of reality, and is best presented in terms of it.

Fichte views the basic issue as a choice between two possible answers to this
question. One answer (which Fichte calls ‘dogmatism’) is the conception of the
absolute as ‘object’ or ‘substance’, determined and determining everything
causally, through the necessity of its nature. The other answer is idealism, which
grasps the absolute as ‘subject’ or ‘ego’, creating both itself and its objects
through freedom. The choice is between seeing ourselves (and the rest of the world)
as products of lifeless objectivity or as manifestations of a free creative self or
ego. Fichte of course opts for idealism, since (he alleges) only it can do justice
to the experience of our own spontaneity as knowing subjects or to our sense of
dignity as free moral agents.

For him, the absolute is ‘a movement of self-positing’, that is, a process through
which ‘the living substance which is subject’ actualizes itself by becoming object
to itself and then restores its unity with itself by coming to know this object as
its own free expression or manifestation. For Hegel, mind or spirit (Geist) means
this movement of ‘self-restoring sameness’.2

Here alone, Kant ‘opened up the concept of life, of the idea, and thus did
positively for philosophy what the Critique of Pure Reason had done only in an
imperfect, indirect or negative way’.6 The conception to which Hegel is referring
is that of a living organism or ‘organized being’ through which Kant introduces the
idea of natural teleology. In a living thing, says Kant, ‘the preservation of any
one part depends reciprocally on the rest’, so that ‘the parts [of an organism] are
all organs reciprocally producing each other’.7 The same reciprocity holds between
the organism and its parts. For a thing to be an organism, ‘it is required first
that its parts (as regards their existence and their form) should be possible only
through their relation to the whole ... and second that the parts should so combine
in the unity of a whole that they are reciprocally cause and effect of each other’s
form.’ In virtue of this, a living thing is not only an ‘organized’, but a ‘self-
organizing being’.8

To comprehend ultimate reality as spirit thus means comprehending reality as an


organized system, a living whole exhibiting an endless variety of living forms in
all its parts. Since the ground of any organized being is its tendency to manifest
and preserve a certain form, the type of explanation best suited to comprehending
spirit and its manifestations is teleological explanation.

To comprehend reality as spirit is to show that it exists in order that the


dialectic process of spirit might be, to explain its existence through spirit’s
tendency to fulfill itself. Hegel’s philosophy is thus a theodicy, which reveals
the world as a manifestation of God’s creativity and its strict necessity which is
at the same time the most perfect freedom.

Hegel’s model of spirit’s creative activity is the organization of a living thing.


But a living organism gives us only a first approximation to spirit, or rather is
itself only an inadequate form in which the rational intelligibility of spirit
manifests itself. ‘Life’, as Hegel puts it, ‘is the immediate idea.’12 In a plant
or animal, the soul or rational principle must constantly struggle with the
‘immediacy’ of the matter in which it is embodied. ‘The process of life consists in
overcoming the immediacy with which it is still beset’, and this is the ‘finitude’
of a living organism.13 Spirit in its true form is like a living organism which is
wholly master of the material in which it is embodied and finds nothing
recalcitrant to its life-principle. The truer form is what Hegel calls the
‘concept’, ‘a totality in which each of its moments is the whole that it is, and is
posited as an indissoluble unity with it’.14

But a reflective human being, by living out a certain self-conception and a set of
goals and values, can also bring about changes in that conception, in these goals
and values themselves. Therefore, a self-consciousness is like an organism which
can survive radical changes in its organic structure, and can even initiate these
changes. (Its nature is to ‘proceed beyond what is limited’, and thus ‘proceed
beyond itself’.)

Hegel sees this pattern of organic development as fundamental to all change which
expresses the nature of spirit, for instance, to the transformation of the culture
and mores of a nation or people in history. ‘A people must know the universal on
which its mores (Sittlichkeit) rest. . . . The highest point in the culture
(Bildung) of a people is this grasping in thought of its life and condition, the
scientific knowledge of its law and mores.’ But this self-knowledge is also the
downfall of what is known and necessitates a new and higher mode of life for the
people which achieves it: ‘Thought as universal has a dissolving force. . . .
Spirit is just this, the dissolution of all determinate content.’

The whole nature of a spiritual being (a human personality, a historical people, a


philosophical vision) thus consists not in a single organic structure or idea, but
in a definite series of such structures, the determinate stages of its inner
organic development. Each of these stages is contained in its predecessor as a
final tendency. If we are to comprehend the nature of such a being, we must do
simultaneously two quite different and even opposite things: First, we must
comprehend each separate stage according to its concept or self-sustaining organic
structure; and second, we must attend to the process by which each of these
structures in time undermines itself through its own workings and passes over into
the next determinate stage.

Hegel conceives of organic development as fundamentally a process of cosmic reason,


a process by which spirit tests and ‘refutes’ the imperfect forms of its
embodiment, rising successively to higher forms. For Kant, dialectic is a process
in which reason falls into inevitable conflicts with itself and resolves them.
Hegel thinks that a spiritual organism goes through such a process as it abandons
each stage and rises to the next. (For Kant the resolution of dialectical
antinomies comes not through higher insight but through abandoning the pretense to
knowledge; for Hegel, of course, this is the chief defect of Kant’s treatment of
dialectic.)17

There are, roughly speaking, two species of dialectic in Hegel, which we may call
respectively the temporal and the hierarchical. As we have pictured organic
development so far, it is literally a temporal process. In his historical lectures,
Hegel presents the history of social mores, political institutions, art, religion
and philosophy as a dialectical series, representing the successive epochs in the
history of a given subject matter as stages of development of spirit in time. The
Phenomenology of Spirit develops the concept of philosophical knowledge from its
most immediate forms up to the standpoint of Hegel’s speculative logic, presenting
different philosophical viewpoints as if they were different phases through which a
philosophical mind might pass in its search for the truth. The dialectic does not
literally trace a temporal process, but its presentation is quasi-temporal, and the
Phenomenology contains extensive allusions to the history of Western philosophy,
religion and culture which are supposed to exhibit this history as following the
inherent series of philosophical views which Hegel is expounding.

There is a different kind of dialectic in The Science of Logic, the Encyclopedia


and The Philosophy of Right. In these works, Hegel is not concerned with temporal
development at all. His aims in presenting things dialectically are to exhibit the
rational structure of his subject matter and to insure a systematic treatment of
it. Here the dialectical stages are not phases of a temporal process but rather a
THE HEGELIAN DIALECTIC hierarchy of successively more adequate viewpoints on a
subject matter, or of successively more adequate forms in which a single idea
actualizes itself in the world.

Hegel’s method is to generate successively the richer definitions by exhibiting


each of them as solving the particular difficulties inherent in the one which
precedes it. In this way, Hegel’s logic presents us with a series of viewpoints on
reality, each of which is a closer approximation to the truth than the one out of
which it is generated. A hierarchical dialectic of this sort is of some importance
for Marx since in its general conception (though not of course in its finer
details) it distinctly resembles the theoretical structure of Capital. (There is
good evidence that this resemblance is intentional.)21

Engels criticizes Eugen Diihring for ascribing to Marx the intention of ‘proving
that the process was historically necessary’ by subsuming it under a ‘dialectical

The shallowness of formal logic, according to Hegel, is due to the artificial


notions of identity and difference (contradiction, negation) it employs. The formal
logical notion of something’s identity is what Hegel calls ‘abstract identity’.
This notion ‘arises through a relative negating that goes on outside it, only
separating from it what is distinguished, and otherwise leaving it as much as
before something which merely is’.32 With this notion of identity, one may take any
arbitrary bit of reality, abstract it both from its organic connections with other
things and from its own essential tendencies to develop, and not only treat it as
something having an ‘identity’ but even assert that its identity is something which
does not concern the constitution of anything else or any processes of change in
which the chosen bit of reality may be involved.

‘abstract negative’, the mere lack or absence of the property, which may refer to
almost anything. ‘In the doctrine of contradictory concepts, the one concept is,
e.g., blue ... and the other not-blue, so that this other would not be something
affirmative, perhaps yellow, but would be held fast as the abstract negative.’34
This conception saves the correctness of the principles of contradiction and
excluded middle, but only at the cost of childish triviality. In these principles
‘the opposite signifies a mere lack, or rather indeterminateness; the proposition
is so insignificant it is not worth the trouble to state it.’35 The notion of
abstract negation is wholly artificial; nowhere does it enter into the real
constitution of things or explain their processes: ‘In fact there is nowhere,
neither in heaven nor on earth, neither in the spiritual nor the natural world, an
abstract “either/or” of the sort asserted by the understanding.’36

Hegel sees reality as structured organically and develop mentally. Things display
their essential natures when they are seen as organized wholes or systems, and as
elements of larger wholes or systems. These systems are characterized by tendencies
not only to self-harmony and self-maintenance, but also to development, both
temporally and hierarchically. Things which exist through time have essential
tendencies to develop, to unfold their natures by continually changing or
revolutionizing their organic structures. Organic structures themselves display a
hierarchy, developing or unfolding a certain abstract essence or basic principle
toward its full concreteness. A theory which captures the structure of reality must
conceive things as organized totalities. It must attend to their essential
tendencies to temporal development, and it must analyze their organic structure
through a hierarchy of concepts of or viewpoints on a whole which reveal all the
levels or stages belonging to its nature.

The ‘rational kernel’ of Hegel’s dialectic, then, is his vision of reality as


structured organically and characterized by inherent tendencies to development. The
‘mystical shell’ is Hegel’s logical pantheistic metaphysics, which represents the
dialectical structure of reality as a consequence of thinking spirit’s creative
activity. Marx’s ‘inversion’ of Hegel consists in viewing the dialectical structure
of thought not as a cause or explanation for the dialectical structure of reality,
but merely as a consequence of the fact that it is thought’s function to mirror a
dialectically structured world.

An organic whole qualifies as such because it possesses a certain inner


intelligibility, and not because it shares any determinate properties with other
organic wholes. Thus Kant thinks that the discovery of teleological organization
requires a creative act of the mind, akin to artistic genius, ‘the talent for
producing something for which no determining rule can be given’.7 The attempt to
specify a property all organic wholes have in common will probably succeed only to
the degree that it manages to be uninformative.

To say of social structures, for instance, that they are organic wholes is to
recommend that they be studied teleologically. To say that societies change through
inherent tendencies to development is to imply that we should try to understand
them in terms of such tendencies rather than in terms of causal laws. Whatever
these proposals may be, they are not trivial or uncontroversial. In any possible
world where it would be advisable to follow them, there would have to be a degree
of organization and inner development which is considerably greater than many
social theorists have thought there is in the actual world. Looked at in this way,
the thesis that reality is structured dialectically, despite its vagueness,
undoubtedly has empirical significance.

Marx often emphasizes that self-maintenance and transitoriness are mutually

Engels, the great thing about Hegel’s philosophy is the task it proposes, that of
‘presenting the whole natural, historical and spiritual world as a process, i.e.,
as in constant movement, change, transformation and development, and making the
attempt to trace out the inner connection in this movement and development’.21 ‘The
whole of nature accessible to us forms a system, a connected totality.’ Dialectic
is the ‘science of interconnections’ within this system, ‘the essentially ordering
science’, which ‘binds natural processes into one great whole’,

Engels’ three famous ‘dialectical laws’ (the unity of opposites, the transition of
quantity into quality and the negation of the negation) are all taken more or less
directly from Hegel, and are best seen as vehicles for expounding his vision of the
world as organically and develop- mentally structured.

Some writers claim that Marx does not follow Engels in applying dialectical
categories to nature. Like other attempts to drive a significant philosophical
wedge between Marx and Engels, this thesis was first popularized by Lukacs’ History
and Class Consciousness, is usually supported by an essentially idealistic reading
of Marx, and has no basis whatever in Marx’s texts. It is true that Marx does not
often indulge in Engels’ naturphilosophische speculations and concerns himself
almost exclusively with the application of dialectical thinking to social theory.
But Marx more than once explicitly asserts that dialectical principles are
‘verified equally in history and natural science’.24 Nowhere does he say or imply
the reverse. Marx does endorse Giambattista Vico’s idea that ‘human history is
distinguished from natural history by the fact that we have made the former but not
the latter’, and in this context criticizes ‘the abstract materialism of natural
science, which excludes the historical process’.25 But this is an attack precisely
on that materialism which excludes the dialectical category of organic development
from nature.

Marx’s chief methodological reflections in Capital are found in his Afterword to


the second edition. They are occasioned by the remarks of a Russian reviewer, who
found Marx’s ‘method of research strictly realistic, but the method of presentation
(Darstellung) unfortunately German-dialectical’. Marx agrees that his method is
dialectical, and he insists that the ‘mode of presentation must be distinguished
formally from the mode of research’. As Marx describes them, both the ‘mode of
presentation’ and the ‘mode of research’ used in Capital are recognizably
dialectical. The task of research is to ‘appropriate the material in detail, to
analyze its different forms of development and trace their inner bond’. This
supposes that the material is structured dialectically, that the economic structure
of capitalism is a hierarchy of ‘forms of development’ connected organically by an
‘inner bond’. Once research has traced out this structure, Marx says, ‘the
corresponding actual movement can be presented (dargestellt). If this succeeds and
the life of the material is reflected back ideally, then it may appear as if we
were dealing with an a priori construction.’29

Marx says it is natural in economics to begin by considering ‘the real and


concrete’, to examine the population of a country, its distribution among different
branches of production, its imports and exports, its annual production and
consumption, its system of relative commodity prices. Most political economists, he
says, begin this way. But as they set out to understand the workings of a concrete
society, they are compelled to ‘proceed analytically to simpler and simpler
concepts’, to ‘thinner and thinner abstractions’, until they arrive at a handful of
basic, abstract economic notions. According to Marx, it is really only when they
have done this that they can begin to develop a genuine economic theory, retracing
their journey back to the concrete by ascending from simple abstractions (such as
labor, division of labor, value and exchange) back up to the concrete economy with
which they began. Thus Marx believes that the economists’ ‘first path’, starting
from the concrete and the immediately observable is a theoretically false approach.
The ‘scientifically correct method’ is rather the ‘second path’, which begins with
carefully chosen abstractions and shows how what is observable arises out of the
basic economic structures they represent. The concrete is concrete because it is a
combination of many determinations, a unity of the manifold. Thus in thought it
appears as a process of combination, a result, not as a point of departure, even
though it is the actual point of departure and thus the point of departure for
observation and representation. On the first path, the full representation is
evaporated into abstract determinations. On the second, the abstract determinations
lead to the reproduction of the concrete on the path of thought.30

For Marx, a properly constructed economic theory is a ‘system of categories’,

those which display a fuller, more concrete conception of the social whole, and
reflect ‘forms of development’ which are more accessible to immediate observation.

Marx emphasizes that the ‘forms of development’ here are not temporal, that the
order of categories in the theory is not to be the order in which the corresponding
social forms appear historically or become historically decisive. The ultimate aim
of Marx’s theory, of course, is to reveal the tendencies to change inherent in
bourgeois society. But the immediate purpose of his system of categories is to
understand the inner structure of society and not to trace its history: ‘It is not
a question of the relation which economic relations assume historically in the
series of different social forms, ... but of the articulation of these relations
within modern bourgeois society.’34

Marx’s theory works toward a model that mirrors the empirical facts in their
concrete detail, but he does not view economic theories or theoretical models
merely as devices for summarizing and predicting observations. The task of Marx’s
theory is to reproduce the structure of the concrete in thought. The function of
more abstract models is to penetrate complex appearances, to get at the basic
social forms from whose inner tendencies the observable phenomena result.

Let’s take another example. In the modern world, from the eighteenth century, you
see the development of secret societies. In the eighteenth century these are still
basically close to forms of religious dissidence. As you know, they have their
dogmas, rituals, hierarchy, postures, ceremonies, and forms of community.
Freemasonry is, of course, a privileged example of this. Then, in the nineteenth
century, they become increasingly composed of political elements and take on
clearer political objectives - plots, political or social revolutions - but always
with an aspect of the pursuit of a different form of conduct: to be led
differently, by other men, and towards other objectives than those proposed by the
apparent and visible official governmentality of society. Its clandestine character
is no doubt a necessary dimension of this political action, but at the same time it
includes and offers this possibility of an alternative to governmental direction in
the form of another form of conduct with its unknown chiefs and specific forms of
obedience, etcetera. We could say that in contemporary societies, in our societies,
there still exist basically two types of political parties. There are those that
are no more than ladders to the exercise of power or to access to functions and
responsibilities, and then there are political parties, or rather there is a
political party, which has ceased being clandestine for a long time however, but
which continues to have the aura of an old project that it has evidently abandoned
but to which its destiny and name remain linked, and which is the project of giving
birth to a new social order and creating a new man.

I won’t dwell on this further. I would just like to raise a problem of simple
vocabulary. Could we not try to find a word to designate what I have called
resistance, refusal, or revolt? How can we designate the type of revolts, or rather
the sort of specific web of resistance to forms of power that do not exercise
sovereignty and do not exploit, but “conduct”? I have often used the expression
“revolt of conduct,” but I have to say that I am not very satisfied with it,
because the word “revolt” is both too precise and too strong to designate much more
diffuse and subdued forms of resistance. The secret societies of the eighteenth
century are not revolts of conduct; the mysticism of the Middle Ages I was just
talking about is not exactly a revolt. Second, the word “disobedience” is, on the
other hand, too weak no doubt, although the problem of obedience is in fact at the
center of all this. A movement like Anabaptism,i for example, was much more than
disobedience. Furthermore, these movements that I have tried to pick out definitely
have a productivity, forms of existence, organization, and a consistency and
solidity that the purely negative word of disobedience does not capture.
“Insubordination (insoumission),” perhaps, although we are dealing with a word that
in a way is localized and attached to military insubordination. There is, to be
sure, a word that comes to mind, but I would rather cut my tongue out than use it.
I will just mention it therefore. It is, as you will have guessed, the word
“dissidence.”[86] In fact, maybe the word “dissidence” is exactly suited for these
forms of resistance that concern, set their sights on, and have as their objective
and adversary a power that assumes the task of conducting men in their life and
daily existence. The word would be justified for two reasons, both of them
historical. The first is that in fact the word “dissidence” has often been employed
to designate religious movements of resistance to pastoral organization. Second,
its current application could in fact justify its use since, after all, what we
[call][87] “dissidence” in the East and the Soviet Union,1 really does designate a
complex form of resistance and refusal, which involves a political refusal, of
course, but in a society where political authority, that is, the political party,
responsible for defining both the country’s characteristic form of economy and
structures of sovereignty, is at the same time responsible for conducting
individuals in their daily life through a game of generalized obedience that takes
the form of terror, since terror is not when some command and strike fear into
others.

This is the introduction of an essentially and fundamentally secular model, namely


the judicial model, into the usual pastoral practice. In truth, it would be wrong
to say this dates from the eleventh and twelfth centuries, since in fact the Church
had already acquired and exercised judicial functions from the seventh and eighth
centuries, as is proven by the penitentials of this time. But the important thing
is the development of the practice of confession in the eleventh and twelfth
centuries and it becoming obligatory in 1215[91] - it was, in fact, already fairly
generalized - that is to say, the existence of a permanent court before which every
faithful had to regularly present him or herself. We see the appearance and
development of belief in Purgatory,[92] that is to say a system of modulated,
provisional punishment in which justice, the pastorate in short, has a role. This
role is performed by the system of indulgences, that is to say the possibility, for
the pastor, for the Church, of attenuating penalties to some extent on certain,
basically financial, conditions. So, from the twelfth century the Church was
penetrated by a judicial model that was a major reason for antipastoral struggles.

The second element is communities. There is in fact another, to a certain extent


opposite way of refusing submission to pastoral power, which is the formation of
communities. Asceticism has an individualizing tendency. The community is something
completely different. On what is it based? First, there is a sort of theoretical
background that is found in most of the communities formed during the Middle Ages.
This is the refusal of the pastor’s authority and its theological or
ecclesiological justifications. In particular, the communities, or some of them,
the most violent and virulent, those most openly in breach with the Church, start
from the principle that the Church itself, and in particular its fundamental and
central body, namely Rome, is a new Babylon and represents the Antichrist.

The other doctrinal aspect is the problem of the priest’s sacramental power. What
does the priest’s power to administer the sacraments consist of? From the start,
Church doctrine never ceased to single out, back up, give weight to, and intensify
the priest’s sacramental power.§ In the first place, the priest can control entry
into the community through baptism; he can unbind in heaven what he unbinds on
Earth in confession; and he can give Christ’s body through the Eucharist. The
development of different religious communities constantly challenged all these
aspects of the priest’s sacramental power gradually established by the Church.[100]
There is refusal, for example, of the obligatory baptism of children whose effect
is entirely that of a priest’s act on someone who has no will.11 So, there is
refusal of the baptism of children and a tendency towards adult, voluntary baptism,
that is to say baptism that is voluntary for the individual as well as for the
community that accepts the individual.

This does not mean that the principle of obedience was wholly unrecognized or
suppressed in these communities. There were some communities in which no form of
obedience was recognized. For some pantheistic groups of the Brethren of the Free
Spirit, for example,1 more or less inspired by Amaury de Bene1 and Ulrich de
Strasbourg,§ God was matter itself. Consequently, all individuality was only
illusion. The division between good and evil could not exist and was only a
chimerical effect, and consequently all appetites were legitimate. To that extent
it was, at least in principle, a system that excluded all obedience or, at any
rate, asserted the legitimacy of all conduct.

of asserting schemas of obedience in these communities, but in a way that is


completely different from the pastoral schema. There are, for example,
relationships of reciprocal obedience. In the Oberland Friends of God there were
rules, or oaths rather, pledges of reciprocal obedience of one individual to
another. Thus Rulman Merswin[103] and the anonymous Oberland Friend of God'f made a
pact of reciprocal obedience for 28 years. For 28 years each agreed that they would
obey the other’s orders as if he were God Himself.i We also find phenomena of
hierarchical reversal. In these groups you have systematic reversals of hierarchy.
That is to say, the most ignorant or poorest person, or someone with the lowest
reputation or honor, the most debauched, the prostitute, was chosen as leader of
the group.§ This is what happened, for example, with the Society of the Poor and
Jeanne Dabenton, who was reputed to have led the most dissolute life and who,
precisely because of this, became the group’s pastor.

The third element, a third form of counter-conduct is mysticism,[104] that is to


say, the privileged status of an experience that by definition escapes pastoral
power. Basically, pastoral power developed a system of truth that, as you know,
went from teaching to examination of the individual; a truth conveyed as dogma to
all the faithful, and a truth extracted from each of them as a secret discovered in
the depths of the soul. Mysticism is a completely different system. In the first
place, it has a completely different game of visibility. The soul is not offered to
the other for examination, through a system of confessions (aveux). In mysticism
the soul sees itself. It sees itself in God and it sees God in itself. To that
extent mysticism fundamentally, essentially, escapes examination.

while it is true that mysticism accepts and functions according to a progressive


principle like teaching, it has a completely different principle of progress, since
teaching follows a regular progression from ignorance to knowledge through the
successive acquisition of cumulative elements, whereas the mystical path passes

Better still, mysticism develops on the basis of, and in the form of, absolutely
ambiguous experiences, in a sort of equivocation, since the secret of the night is
that it is an illumination. The secret, the force of illumination, is precisely

Finally, [the fifth element], and I will stop here, is eschatological beliefs.
After all, the other way of disqualifying the pastor’s role is to claim that the
times are fulfilled or in the process of being fulfilled, and that God will return
or is returning to gather his flock. He will be the true shepherd. Consequently,
since he is the true shepherd coming to gather his flock, he can give notice to the
pastors of history and time, and it is for him now to make the division, to give
nourishment to the flock, and to guide it. The pastors are given notice, since
Christ is returning, or again, another form of eschatology that developed along a
line that more or less stems from Joachim of Fiore,^ is the assertion of the advent
of a third time or third age in history. The first age is that of the incarnation
of the first person of the Trinity in a prophet, Abraham, and at that point the
Jewish people needed pastors who were the other prophets. The second time, period,
or age, is that of the incarnation of the second person. But the second person of
the Trinity does not act like the first; he does better. The first sent a pastor,
the second is incarnated in person, and this is Christ. But when Christ returned to
heaven he entrusted his flock to pastors who were supposed to represent him. But,
says Joachim of Fiore, the third time, the third period, the third phase in the
history of the world is coming, and the Holy Spirit will descend on Earth. Now the
Holy Spirit is not incarnated in a prophet, and he is not incarnated in a person;
he is spread over the entire world. That is to say, there will be a particle, a
fragment, a spark of the Holy Spirit in each of the faithful and so they will no
longer need a shepherd.

All this is to say that in this development of movements of counter-conduct in the


Middle Ages I think we can find five fundamental themes, which are those of
eschatology, Scripture, mysticism, the community, and ascesis. That is to say,
Christianity in its real pastoral organization is not an ascetic religion, it is
not a religion of the community, it is not a mystical religion, it is not a
religion of Scripture, and, of course, it is not an eschatological religion. This
is the first reason for wanting to talk to you about all this.

PM

the conflicts between feudalism and the merchant bourgeoisie, were translated into
a number of religious themes, forms, and concerns that finally result in the
explosion of the Reformation, of the great religious crisis of the sixteenth
century. If we do not take the problem of the pastorate, of the structures of
pastoral power, as the hinge or pivot of these different elements external to each
other - the economic crises on one side and religious themes on the other - if we
do not take it as a field of intelligibility, as the principle establishing
relations between them, as the switch-point between these elements, then I think we
are forced to return to the old conceptions of ideology, [and][106] to say that the
aspirations of a group, a class, and so forth, are translated, reflected, and
expressed in something like a religious belief. The point of view of pastoral
power, of this analysis of the structures of power, enables us, I think, to take up
these things and analyze them, no longer in the form of reflection and
transcription, but in the form of strategies and tactics.[107] There you are.
Forgive me for having taken too long, and next time, this is a promise, we won’t
speak any more about pastors.

TODAY I WOULD FINALLY like to move on from the pastoral of souls to the political
government of men. It should be understood, of course, that I will not try even to
sketch the series of transformations that actually brought about the transition
from this economy of souls to the government of men and populations.

resistances, revolts, and insurrections of conduct.

—Dios haga a vuestra merced muy venturoso caballero y le dé ventura en lides.[40]


Don Quijote le preguntó cómo se llamaba, porque él supiese de allí adelante a quién
quedaba obligado por la merced recibida, porque pensaba darle alguna parte[41] de
la honra que alcanzase por el valor de su brazo. Ella respondió con mucha humildad
que se llamaba la Tolosa, y que era hija de un remendón[42] natural de Toledo, que
vivía a las tendillas de Sancho Bienaya,[43] y que dondequiera que ella estuviese
le serviría y le tendría por señor. Don Quijote le replicó que, por su amor, le
hiciese merced que de allí adelante se pusiese don y se llamase «doña Tolosa». Ella
se lo prometió, y la otra le calzó la espuela, con la cual le pasó casi el mismo
coloquio que con la de la espada. Preguntole su nombre, y dijo que se llamaba la
Molinera y que era hija de un honrado molinero de Antequera;[44] a la cual también
rogó don Quijote que se pusiese don y se llamase «doña Molinera», ofreciéndole
nuevos servicios y mercedes.

The Mexican essayist and poet Octavio Paz, another Nobel prize winner, states in
his essay “The Siren and the Seasheir (translated 1991): “Dario was not only the
richest and most wide-ranging of the modernist poets: he was also one of our great
modern poets. He was the beginning” (31). Paz also suggests that the movement known
as Hispanic modernism—of which Dario became the undisputed leader in both Spanish
America and Spain— has yet to run its course and that everything written since
Dario has been influenced in one way or another by him.

deliberate search fora revolution in poetic structure, utilizing sonnet lines of
twelve, fourteen, and even sixteen syllables, rather than the traditional eleven.
The use of alliteration, run-on lines, epithets, metaphors, and a rich association
of conceits and wordplay all point to amasterful exploration of poetry’s musical
possibilities.

believed in intercommunication within nature, imagined everything as penetrated by


soul, and likened divine beauty to the beauty of a woman, thus revealing a
connection to Eastern mysticism and the Cabala of the Spanish Jews. In this poem he
points to the union of all nature, the universal soul of all things: IHimnosI Las
cosas tienen un ser vital: las cosas tienen raros aspectos, miradas misteriosas;
toda forma es un gesto, una cifra, un enigma; en cada dtomo existe un incdgnito

El canto monte begins with a prologue, the “Dilucidaciones’’ (Elucidations), an


assortment of notes and sketches published earlier in the Madrid press. In a sense,
this prologue meant to serve as an act of self-defense against attacks by Darfo’s
critics, especially in Spain.The prose here is excellent, and some observations
still retain the freshness of the times.

The first two lines refer to the flesh, not of a particular woman but of all women.
A woman’s body is the heavenly stuff where men find the absolute, the ultimate
union of body and spirit; flesh, clay, sacramental bread, or even better, ambrosia,
the food of the gods, which, consumed with nectar, grants immortality. The poem
places woman at the center of things, a divine presence that makes existence
bearable: Lavida se soporta tan doliente y tan corta, solamente poreso: roce,
mordisco o beso en ese pan divino para el cual nuestra sangre es nuestro vino!

Glimpses of erotic despair stem from an ambivalence he himself could not resolve,
perhaps due to his experience with the three most important women in his love life:
his first wife, Rafael Contreras, who died so young; Francisca Sinchez, his
uneducated common-law wife who supported him unconditionally; and Rosario Murillo,
his second wife, 37 who pursued him to the end. In other words, woman as the source
of good and evil, as mothering saint and uncomplaining lover, or as irresistible
siren and enigmatic sphinx.

following poem flows naturally from the same myth, from the glory of Leda ravished
at the fountainhead of the erotic harmony of the universe, to the sadness of
returning to this mundane existence with the memory of having touched the divine.
Eroticism is an integral part of Dario’s sense of cosmic harmony: “Ante el celeste,

A partir de ahora, el Quijote se ofrece regularmente como la traducción, por un


morisco bilingüe, de la Historia escrita en árabe por Cide (‘señor’) Hamete
(‘Hamid’) Benengeli (derivado de ‘berenjena’), de acuerdo con el tradicional
expediente de presentar un relato más o menos ficticio como copia o versión de un
manuscrito hasta entonces inédito y a menudo (sobre todo en los libros de
caballerías) compuesto en una lengua exótica. Cervantes, el narrador que empezaba
el relato con un «no quiero acordarme» y continuaba investigando los «anales de la
Mancha» y ponderando las discrepancias entre «los autores que de este caso
escriben», se descubre ahora como una especie de editor y comentarista. Ni esas ni
otras referencias a las diversas fuentes y opiniones en torno a la historia de don
Quijote se dejan conciliar en un sistema coherente; pero se trata de bromas y
parodias diáfanas, que en ningún momento pretenden ni pueden confundir al lector.

verdadera relación de la historia, que ninguna es mala como sea verdadera. Si a
ésta se le puede poner alguna objeción cerca de su verdad, no podrá ser otra sino
haber sido su autor arábigo, siendo muy propio de los de aquella nación ser
mentirosos; aunque, por ser tan nuestros enemigos, antes se puede entender haber

—Señor, yo soy hombre pacífico, manso, sosegado, y sé disimular cualquiera injuria,


porque tengo mujer y hijos que sustentar y criar. Así que séale a vuestra merced
también aviso, pues no puede ser mandato, que en ninguna manera pondré mano a la

Dios[21] perdono cuantos agravios me han hecho y han de hacer, ora me los haya
hecho o haga o haya de hacer persona alta o baja, rico o pobre, hidalgo o pechero,

respondió: —Quisiera tener aliento para poder hablar un poco descansado, y que el
dolor que tengo en esta costilla se aplacara tanto cuanto,[23] para darte a
entender, Panza, en el error en que estás. Ven acá, pecador: si el viento de la

quererlo ser, ni tener valor ni intención de vengar tus injurias y defender tu
señorío. Porque has de saber que en los reinos y provincias nuevamente conquistados
nunca están tan quietos los ánimos de sus naturales ni tan de parte del nuevo
señor, que no se tengan temor de que han de hacer alguna novedad para alterar de
nuevo las cosas y volver, como dicen, a probar ventura; y, así, es menester que el
nuevo posesor tenga entendimiento para saberse gobernar y valor para ofender y

a él le dieron vislumbres de preciosas perlas orientales. Los cabellos, que en
alguna manera tiraban a crines, él los marcó por hebras de lucidísimo oro de
Arabia, cuyo resplandor al del mismo sol escurecía; y el aliento, que sin duda
alguna olía a ensalada fiambre y trasnochada,[32] a él le pareció que arrojaba de
su boca un olor suave y aromático; y, finalmente, él la pintó en su imaginación, de
la misma traza y modo, lo que había leído en sus libros[33] de la otra princesa que
vino a ver el malferido caballero vencida de sus amores, con todos los adornos que
aquí van puestos. Y era tanta la ceguedad del pobre hidalgo, que el tacto ni el
aliento ni otras cosas que traía en sí la buena doncella no le desengañaban, las

envasó bien poco menos que su amo. Es, pues, el caso que el estómago del pobre
Sancho no debía de ser tan delicado como el de su amo, y, así, primero que vomitase

De hecho, el modelo frecuente en el pensamiento renacentista,2 que derivó de la


lección de Vitruvio, según lo exponen las obras de León Battista Albcrti, Jacopo
Barozzi Vignola, Antonio Arvelino Filareta, Andrea Pallado, etc., fue circular y
aún más revelador del orden jerárquico que lo inspiraba, pues situaba al poder en
el punto central y distribuía a su alrededor, en sucesivos círculos concéntricos,
los diversos estratos sociales.

De conformidad con estos procedimientos, las ciudades americanas fueron remitidas


desde sus orígenes a una doble vida. La correspondiente al orden físico que, por
ser sensible, material, está sometido a los vaivenes de construcción y de
destrucción, de instauración y de renovación, y, sobre lodo, a los impulsos de la
invención circunstancial de individuos y grupos según su momento y situación. Por
encima de ella, la correspondiente al orden de los signos que actúan en el nivel
simbólico, desde antes de cualquier realización, y también durante y después, pues
disponen de una inalterabilidad a la que poco conciernen los a va tares materiales.
Antes de ser una realidad de calles, casas y plazas, las que sólo pueden existir y
aún así gradualmente, a lo largo del tiempo histórico, las ciudades; emergían ya
completas por un parto de la inteligencia en las normas que las teorizaban, en las
actas fundacionales que las estatuían,_en los planos que las diseñaban idealmente,
con esa fatal regularidad que acecha a los sueños de la razón y que depararía un
principio que para Thomas More era motivo de glorificación, cuUndo decía en su
Utopia (1516): “He vvho knows one of the cities, vvill know them al!, so exactly
alike are they, except where the nature of the grounds prevents”. La mecanicidad de

Desde luego, las ciudades barrocas de la intempestiva conquista no funcionarán en


un vacío total. Como señala Fernand Braudel en su notable libro, cuando diseña las
reglas de la economía-mundo, “le capita- lisme et l’économie de marché coexisten!,
s’inter- pénétrent, sans toujours se confondre”23 de tal modo que estas ciudades
irreales, despegadas de las necesidades del medio, verdaderos batiscafos, sino
extra- terrestres^ al menos extracontinentales, aprovecharán en su beneficio las
preexistentes redes indígenas, sus zonas de cultivo, sus mercados y sobre todo la
fuerza del trabajo que proporcionaban. La inserción capitalista abrupta no
destruirá esa economía de mercado que permanecerá como un bajo continuo durante
siglos, crecientemente agostada. Les cabrá ser los puntos donde se produce la
acumulación mediante la concentración de los recursos y riquezas existentes y lo
harán con una ferocidad que patentiza la violencia del cambio introducido en la
vida de las comunidades indias.

Varias causas contribuyeron a la fortaleza de la ciudad letrada. Las dos


principales fueron: las exigencias de una vasta administración colonial que_con_
puntillismo llevó a. cabo la Monarquía, duplicando controles y salvaguardias para
restringir, en vano, el constante fraude con que se la burlaba, y las exigencias de
la evangelización (transculturación) de una población indígena que contaba por
millones, a la que se logró encuadrar en la aceptación de los valores europeos,
aunque en ellos no creyeran o no los comprendieran. Esas dos inmensas tareas
reclaniaban un elevadísimo número de letrados, los que se asentaron preferentemente
en los reductos urbanos.

Puede percibirse en éso el niargen de funcionamiento autórmmo^dejque es capaz el


equipo intelectual tal como Karl Mannheim lo detectara tempranamente,9 y sirviera
más recientemente a Alvin Gouldner10 para examinar su poder en las sociedades
contemporáneas. Con demasiada frecuencia, en los análisis marxistas, se Cha visto a
los intelectuales como meros ejecutantes de Jos mandatos de las Instituciones
(cuando no de las _das.es) que los emplean, perdiendo de vista su peculiar función
de productores, en tanto conciencias que ela- boran mensajes, y, sobre todo, su
especificidad como diseñadores de modelos culturales, destinados a la conformación
de ideologías públicas. Creo indispensable manejar una relación más fluida y
compleja entre las instituciones o clases y los grupos intelectuales. Incluso por
su condición de servidores de poderes, están en inmediato contacto con el forzoso
principio institucionalizador que caracteriza a cualquier poder, siendo por lo
tanto quienes mejor conocen sus 30 mecanismos, quienes más están entrenados en sus
vicisitudes y, también, quienes mejor aprenden la conveniencia de otro tipo de
institucionalizado!!, el del restricto grupo que ejercita las funciones
intelectuales. Pues también por su experiencia saben que puede modificarse el tipo
de mensajes que emitan sin que se altere su condición de funcionarios, y ésta
deriva de una intransferible capacidad que procede de un campo que le es propio y
que dominan, por el cual se les reclama servicios, que consiste en el ejercicio de
los lenguajes simbólicos de la cultura. No sólo sirven a un poder, sino que también
son dueños de un poder. Es fe incluso puede embriagarlos hasta hacerles perder de
vista que su eficiencia, su realización, sólo se alcanza si lo respalda, da fuerza
e impone, el centro del poder real de la sociedad.

Reduciéndonos a un aspecto aparentemente trivial, se la podría reconstruir mediante
la paralela evolución del nomenclátor urbano. Ajjna_primera_cpoca en que se recurre
a nombres particulares para designar sitios o calles, los cuales nacen de objetos
concretos que pertenecen a su estrecha contigüidad (Monjitas se llamará una calle
en Santiago porque allí estaba el convento de monjas) sigue una segunda, en que los
nombres de las calles ya no pertenecen a simples desplazaniientos jncto.nímicos,

El corpus de leyes, edicto^ códigos, acrecentado aún más desde la Independencia,


concedió un puesto destacado al conjunto de abogados, escribanos, escri- bientcs_ y
burócratas de la administración. Por sus manos pasaron los documentos que
instauraban el poder, desde las prebendas y concesiones virreinales que
instituyeron fortunas privadas hasta las emisiones de la deuda pública durante la
República y las desamortizaciones de bienes que contribuyeron a nuevas fortunas ya
en el XIX. Tanto en la Colonia como en la_ República adquirieron una oscura
preeminencia los escribanos, hacedores de contratos y testamentos, quienes
disponían de la autoridad que trasmitía la legitimidad de la propiedad, cuando no
la creaba de la nada: las disputas en torno a los títulos de propiedad fueron
inextinguibles concediendo otro puesto preeminente a los abogados. Todos ellos
ejercían esa facultad escrituraria que era indispensable para la obtención o
conservación de los bienes, utilizando canónicos modos lingüísticos que se
mantenían invariables durante siglos.

Aun más significativo que el purismo, que entró a declinar desde la modernización
de fines del XIX, sin que ni aún hoy se haya extinguido, es otro mecanismo que
tiene similar procedencia: la utilización de jdos códigos lexicales paralelos y
diferentes que origina un sistema de equivalencias semánticas, de usojcmtstante
entre los intelectuales, el cual puede ser incluido entre las plurales formas de
supervivencia colonial. Este , mecanismo hace del letrado un traductor, obligándolo
’ a qipclar a un metalenguaje para reconvertir el término deun código a otro,
entendiendo que están colocados en un orden jerárquico de tal modo que uno_ es
superior y_qtrq_inferior. En la carta que Carlos vSigücnza y Góngora remitió al
Almirante Pez, entonces en España, para explicar la rebelión popular en la Nueva
España (carta que conocemos bajo el título que le dio Irving Leonard: “Alboroto y
motín de México del 8 de junio de 1692”) encontramos algunos de estos ejercicios de
traducción: “muchos elotes (son las mazorcas del maíz que aún no está maduro)”:
“zaramullos (que es lo mismo que picaros chulos y anebatacapas)”.10 Trátese de un
mexicanismo o de un vulgarismo, el autor es consciente de la necesidad de una
reconversión explicativa, en la medida en que se dirige a un rcccptor_de aben de el
océano, pues los dos códigos lexicales postulan ia otredad.

al que los negros cubanos llaman “la madre de los árboles” no basta para que las
gentes de otras latitudes vean el aspecto de columna rostral de ese árbol
gigantcsco(...) Esto sólo se logra mediante una polarización certera de varios
adjetivos, o. para eludir el adjetivo en sí, por la adjetivación de ciertos
sustantivos que actúan, en este caso, por proceso metafórico. Si se anda con suerte
—literariamente hablando, en este caso— el propósito se logra. El objeto vive, se

If, during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the sciences of nature and
those of language and expressive culture were not seen as totally separate, but as
part and parcel of the epistemological endeavor of building a corpus of knowledge
about the nation at a historical moment when such an endeavor was an urgent
political necessity, then it seems awkward that there was such a distance between
the wealth of information generated by the botanical and cartographic expeditions,
the abundance of philological and poetic texts, and the apparent void in
documenting local aural expressions.

In his book The Lettered City, Angel Rama saw the written word, concentrated in the
cities, the sites of political administration, as constitutive of a highly unequal
public sphere that took shape in the hands of lettered elites that to him resembled
a “priestly caste... that enjoyed dominion over the subsidiary absolutes of the
universe of signs” ([1984] 1996, 16). But in this book I argue that Latin America
was simultaneously and just as importantly constituted by audile techniques
cultivated by both the lettered elite and peoples historically considered
“nonliterate,” giving rise to the types of questions and relations that the
worlding of sound enables.

Lettered elites constantly encountered sounding and listening practices that


differed from their own: vocalities that seemed out of tune, difficult to classify
as either language or song, improper Spanish accents that did not conform to a
supposed norm, sounds of indigenous languages for which there were no signs in the
Spanish alphabet, an abundance of noises or “voices” coming from natural entities
that seemed to overwhelm the senses.

question is raised as to whether the deaf ears of history were those of an epochal
moment when the gaze was privileged above all other senses in the West (Jay 1993),
or whether listening practices were always there, hidden by the fact that the
traces left by audibility are enmeshed with different practices, a listening to be
found in the nooks and crannies of history, dispersed across several fields and

By inscription, following Lisa Gitelman (1999, 2006), I mean the act of recording a
listening into a particular technology of dissemination and transmission (in this
case writing). But the inscription of sounds can also occur on the body, in
different kinds of objects such as stones, waterfalls, or other entities of nature
or of urban life, which are understood by different peoples as containing or
indexing the sound archive (Feld 1996,2012; Seeger 1987; Hill and Chaumeil 2011).

ideas on vitalist theories were developed among German and French scholars through
intense and mostly unacknowledged exchanges with naturalists of the Americas,

One of the main questions generated by the critique of modernity in the history of
the senses has been if, after all, such a history has been overwhelmingly
ocularcentric or if it has been understood as such because of privileging specific
practices of modernization that have made it seem so.10 And yet, one of the most
baffling issues about the “audiovisual litany” and its complex relation to the
political theology of orality and to alterity is its capacity to return as an
obvious construction despite repeated historical deconstructions. Wbat Sterne calls
“the political theology” of the audiovisual litany and of orality is what here I am
calling the “spectral politics” (Ludueña 2010) of modem aural- ity— this capacity
to present itself as “an other” when it is in fact “the same” as a recurrent
history of the oral/aural. Even when we change the terms of reference: folklore for
intangible heritage, orality for voice, racialized bodies for knowledge of the
body, monotonous music for savvy rhythms, and so forth, 16 * INTRODUCTION
frequently, without suspecting it, what we are doing is reproducing the same
sensorial/ expressive scheme that we are critiquing.

In the case of trying to rethink the relation between the colonial and the modern
in Latin America and the Caribbean, we see that throughout the twentieth century,
the region is often presented as having a different modernity, one that highlights
the oral/aural bodily knowledge as a particular knowledge of the subaltern opposed
to the ocularcentrism of the elite.11 Such “fonocentrism” (Ramos 2010, 30) tends to
take two forms: a celebration of the acoustic that limits the expression of sonic
difference to the body and the voice, and a difficulty of recognizing a dense
history of the sonorous and audiovisual as a field that has generated multiple
modes of action, thought, and critical theorization, except when it is posited as a
contrasting othering. Thus, in the name of recognizing the knowledge of “the other”
such “fonocentrism” ends up reproducing an unexpected Cartesian dichotomy of the
body and the mind, divided between subalterns and elites.

Rufino José Cuervo (1844-1911), a Colombian philologist and colleague of Caro who
wrote a large part of his work in Paris, became one of the most important
etymologists of Latin America through his work on the history of words for the
creation of his Diccionario de construcción y régimen de la lengua castellana
(Dictionary of construction and regimentation of the Castilian language). For him
as for Andrés Bello working in Chile, language was “a living body” (un cuerpo
viviente) (Bello 1905, viii) and, like a living.body, it was characterized by
different “life epochs” (Cuervo [1914] 1987,23). Etymological techniques emerged as
the means to control language’s tendency, as a “living body,” toward
diversification across time, by selectively determining the correct origin of a
word in order to authorize its proper use in the present. The dangers of language
change through inappropriate mixtures were often metaphorically expressed as akin
to the dangers of promiscuous sexuality reflected in inadequate race mixtures.

Through the relationship between theory and the political power of grammarian
presidents who were invested in them, these three anthropotechnolo- gies generated
an “immunization” of the voice in the name of the formation of the political
community of “the people” and in the name of an aesthetics of a proper mode of the
voice. An “immunitary paradigm” is one that protects or inoculates the person
through the use of the very same materials from which itwants to protect them hut
in some attenuated form (Esposito [1998] 2009). Protection against something
through the use of the elements that cause the threat is a basic mimetic principle

Eduardo Viveiros de Castro has proposed a renewal of anthropological thinking from


a “method of controlled equivocation” (2004,3), derived from Amerindian thinking,
in which it is assumed that there are different perspectives in the
conceptualization of an entity. As such the modes of conceptualizing the relation
of difference do not depend on the history of social constructivism (Holbraad
2012). The work of a comparative anthropology would not he to translate the
concepts of the other into its Western equivalents in order to adequately “explain"
who the other is, to represent him or her divested of colonial history—a process
that assumes that I, as decoder, am able to carry the weight of truth about a
“correct” reading of the other; it would rather involve assuming differential
fields of conceptualization, each with their potential equivocations as a field of
comparative mutual constitution of notions of alterity.15 Equivocation is not a
mistake. To the contrary: Anthropology then is interested in equivocation, in the
literal sense of inter esse, being in between,

for sensation and emotion because of their coordination of brain, nervous system,
head, ear, chest, muscles, respiration, and breathing” (i996,97).3 Such sounds are
then interpreted and experienced under what Feld has called the “local conditions
of acoustic sensation, knowledge and imagination embodied in the particular sense
of place” (199 6, 97) which he calls an acouste- mology.

Se somados a essa ilusão os interesses do mercado, que o conto satiriza com


precisão hilariante, e que começavam a explorar, no fim do século 19, 0 futuroso

Em “Um Homem Célebre” os mundos da música erudita e da música popular aparecem


confundidos, , como vimos, com resultados burlescos. Em “O Machete”, ao contrário,
eles aparecem contrapostos pelo crivo de uma completa diferença de tom e de valor.
Faz-se uma clara afirmação da superioridade moral, intelectual e espiritual do
violoncelista sobre o cavaquinista, “um espírito medíocre”, avesso a qualquer
idéia, com mais nervos do que alma, e cuja perícia instrumental se combina com
exibicionismo puro: “Todo ele acompanhava a gradação e variações das
notas; inclinava-se sobre o instrumento, retesava o corpo, pendia a cabeça ora a um
lado, ora a outro, alçava a perna, sorria, derretia os olhos ou fechava-os nos
lugares que lhe pareciam patéticos. Ouvi-lo tocar era o menos, vê-lo era o mais.

Havia no violoncelo uma poesia austera e pura, uma feição melancólica e severa que
casavam com a alma de Inácio Ramos. A rabeca, que ele ainda amava como o primeiro
veículo de seus sentimentos de artista, não lhe inspirava mais o entusiasmo antigo.
Passara a ser um simples meio de vida; não a tocava com alma, mas com as mãos; não
era a sua arte, mas o seu ofício. O violoncelo sim; para esse guardava Inácio as
melhores das suas aspirações íntimas, os sentimentos mais puros, a imaginação, 0
fervor, 0 entusiasmo. Tocava rabeca para os outros, o violoncelo para si, quando
muito para sua velha mãe. 23 LITERATURA O contraste é completo entre o show de
exterioridade do virtuosístico e esperto tocador de cavaquinho e o aspecto sóbrio e
concentrado do praticante de violoncelo, alheio a qualquer apelo exibicionista e
todo voltado à essenciaÜdade da música, para transcender o ofício em arte.

Vê-se por aí que Machado se depara, nesse momento final da sua primeira fase, dez
anos antes de “Um Homem Célebre”, com a identificação de uma fratura, operante no
meio cultural brasileiro, entre o repertório da música erudita, que está longe de
fazer parte de um sistema integrado de autores, obras, público e intérpretes, e a
emergência de um fenômeno novo, uma música popular urbana que desponta para a
repercussão de massas, a identificação com a demanda do público e a normalização
como mercadoria.

Machado de Assis revi-rou esse esquema, dez anos depois, em “Um Homem Célebre”,
abandonando o altivo pressuposto da seriedade artística, diluído em senti-

garantia de um valor herdado, mas como um crédito artístico não avalizado pelas

E importante observar, ainda, o esvaziamento da superioridade moral do músico de'


concerto, imposto pelo meio, através da revirada que se opera em Inácio, ao longo
da narrativa. Enquanto era um solista sem público, isso não lhe constituía
problema, identificado que estava com o ato puro de fazer música. É quando emerge o
público do outro ~ o rival - que a falta, triangulada com a relação amorosa, passa
a gritar como um problema, tirando Inácio Ramos do seu auto-suficiente centramento
e levando-o ao ciúme, à depressão, ao desespero e à loucura. Em outras palavras, a
intuição do trauma amoroso iminente, disparada pela rivalidade imposta e exposta,
apresenta-se juntamente com 5 MACHADO MAXIXE a consciência de fazer parte de um
sistema cultural em que a sua existência se apresenta como nula, e de ser ele

Mas uma mudança decisiva acontece entre “O Machete” e os outros casos, marcando a
diferença crucial entre o primeiro e o segundo Machado. Carlotinha, posta numa
escolha entre o erudito e o popular, e encarnando sestrosamente o desejo feminino
numa sociedade sem lastro letrado, decide-se pelo segundo, deixando sobre o pequeno
mundo das aspirações elevadas um rastro irreparável de desilusão e tragédia.
No Machado posterior, no entanto, a música dará sempre lugar a um triângulo
indecidível, em que ela supera e suspende a antinomia, permanecendo ao mesmo tempo
como solução e como problema insolúvel. É o caso do "Trio em Lá Menor”, em que
Maria Regina, tocando ao piano a "sonata do absoluto”, compatibiliza os dois homens
que nunca escolhe. O esquema será erigido em cifra do Brasil no romance Esaú
e Jacó, em que Flora concilia ao piano as antinomias que não pode resolver na
escolha entre o pretendente monarquista e o republicano. No próprio “Um Homem
Célebre”, é Pestana que está entre a musa da polca (cujo avatar concreto é
Sinhazinha Mota, a fã) e a cantora tísica, Maria, que encarna a esfera da música
elevada. Ao morrer, Pestana acena ironicamente com o eterno retorno da indecidível
polca dos liberais, equivalente inseparável da polca dos conservadores.

Machado escreve seus textos justamente no interregno em que a utilização do termo


"polca” se mantém como denominação geral e abrangente do fenômeno, matizado muitas
vezes em polca-lundu, poíca-chula, polca-cateretê, polca brasileira ou “polca de

as síncopas, os efeitos rítmicos contramétricos e balançantes, vão se imiscuindo,

então, segundo Sandroni, em ser pensado diretamente segundo a lógica


rítmica conaturai às músicas africanas, que não se baseia na medida regular
de compasso, que não subdivide o tempo em células regulares, mas o produz por meio
da adição de células desiguais, pares e ímpares, gerando múltiplas referências de
tempo e contratempo, que entram continuamente em fase e defasagem. Essa combinação
de paridade com impari-dade rítmica, em que o deslocamento e a defasagem se

A paridade binária do compasso é defasada por esquemas de imparídade internos,


tendo como resultado o fato de que acentos fortes - tônicos ~ recaem sobre

espécie de ambivalência rítmica, ou de oscilação estru-turante dos pontos de

deslindar até hoje, e que a antropologia politicamente correta, tratando-o de
maneira unívoca, só faz confirmar e recobrir. Ademais, a subjetivação do mulato
permanece como dimensão virgem na literatura brasileira do tempo, encontrando sua
primeira expressão, posterior, em Lima Barreto. O tratamento pitoresco do
escandaloso O Mulato, de Aluísio de Azevedo, publicado ao mesmo tempo que Memórias
Póstumas de Brás Cubas> é um sintoma tanto da emergência do assunto quanto da
dificuldade de tratá-lo por dentro. Machado administra, pois, um tabu social e

Pois, fugindo assim que pode do sucesso opressivo, e escapando dos ecos
persecutórios de si mesmo que se ouvem pelas janelas das casas e nos assobios das

the neoliberal transition. I argue that in an attempt to define what kind of


writing is possible after 1973, the novel reveals a double bind: it reflects on its
own failure to produce a defetishizing realist discourse capable of returning us to
the materiality of things, and it also reveals the failure of allegory as a form
INTRODUCTION that can continue to function in a Benjaminian sense as a transitional
discourse, that is, one that can gesture toward the coming of a new emergent

In the context of the Chilean documentary form, commodified memory refers to the
plight of memory politics during the neoliberal transition. Effectively deployed
during the antidictatorship struggles, memory politics as a contestatory practice
and as a resource for collective action, I argue, needs to be rethought in the age
of the mass-media saturation and the "informationalization" of memory. The figure
of restitution is put forward as a way of thinking about the past that moves us
beyond melancholic angst and the discourse of apology, forgiveness, and repentance,
in order to move toward a fuller understanding of the profound transformations
produced by the coup and the transition.

The imbunche—a figure from Mapuche mythology that has all of its bodily orifices
sewn closed by witches— which was perhaps most famously resignified in Jose
Donoso's El obsceno pajaro de la noche, was taken up by the visual artist Catalina
Parra in 1977 to signal howthe dictatorship was producing sutured, mutilated, and
censored bodies. This figure was resignified again in the neoliberal moment as a
vehicle for thinking the problems of a critical visual arts practice in a time when
its antiinstitutional strategies seemed to have been effectively subsumed by the
speculative logic of neoliberal capitalism.

The Chilean neoliberal project emerges out of a specific historical conjuncture. It


becomes the dominant economic model in the aftermath of the 1973 military coup and,
as such, can be seen as a reaction to the leftist policies of the Unidad Popular
(Popular Unity) government.7 But for a deeper understanding of this social
and economic phenomenon, its roots need to be traced further back. A longer
perspective reveals the neoliberal project to be a reaction against the system of
import-substitution industrialization and the Keynesian state form that prevailed
in Chile and much of Latin America since the 1930s. Out of the 1929 stock-market

Thus for the Chilean case, neoliberalism—understood here in its limited sense as a

to be situated in relation to a longer period of economic and political

The Chilean neoliberal transition is commonly periodized into two distinct


stages.'2 The first—and most ideologically radical phase— began in 1975 and
collapsed with the economic crisis of 1982.'3 This first stage was marked by the
appointment of Chicago School-trained economists to many ofthe key state economic
posts (Sergio de Castro's appointment as the minister ofthe economy was this
stage's apex).'4 It was during this period that Milton Friedman's ideas were most
faithfully put into practice by his Chilean students and followers. These policies
included: liberalizing the price system and market.

map its effects in the realm of cultural production. Although informed by economic
and policy approaches, my reading of neoliberalism does not focus on it as a
strictly economic field. Rather, following Brett Levinson's reflections on the
market, I explore it as "a kind of thinking" and "a way of comprehending the
globe."18 Instead of reproducing a policy-oriented approach to neoliberalism, the
following chapters engage with the theoretical underpinnings and most radical
ideas produced by the neoliberal movement in order to understand and assess its
relation to the cultural expressions associated with it.

In his periodization of the concept dedifferentiation, Fredric Jameson pinpoints


1973 as a moment of world crisis (marked by the oil crisis, the end of the gold
standard, and the end of traditional communism) when the economic system and the
cultural structure of feeling "crystallized."20 That is to say, the distinction
between culture and the economy was eclipsed and collapsed. The
term differentiation is taken from Niklas Luhmann's work on systems theory and
describes the dynamic through which semiautonomous systems emerge out of an
undifferentiated mass—such as, for example, social classes, academic disciplines,
and professional specializations. Dedifferentiation, then, describes a conjuncture
when everything including commodity production has become cultural, and culture has
become profoundly economic.

By encoding the social domain as an economic domain, cost-benefit analysis


and market criteria can be applied to all instances of decision making. Thus the
notion of natural freedom, which was the ultimate ground of classical liberalism,
is replaced by the idea of economic liberty (the entrepreneurial and competitive
behavior of economic-rational individuals). This conflation of individual freedoms
and liberal democracy with the freedom of the market and of trade—a conflation that
has been most powerfully articulated in the work of Friedrich von Hayek— is one of
the basic assumptions of the neoliberal project.

passes on to future generations of writers and artists regarding what kind of
writing is possible after the epochal transition that 1973 represents. The book's
subsequent chapters explore different ways—and different mediums (the
novel, documentary film, the testimonio, visual arts, and cultural theory)— that
the following generation of writers, artists, and thinkers has taken up in order to
address Donoso's challenge.

F. Galende parece nivelar la traza linguistica en que el acontecimiento del Golpe


se expresa, los decorados en que se va inscribiendo, con la chamuchina en la cual
inscribe a la nueva intelectualidad chilena, excepctuando a Carlos Perez Villalobos
y a Patricio Guzman, “las unicas excepciones”13, dice, que si hablaron del
verdadero acontecimiento de la dig-nidad de Chile.

ha hipostasiado la entonacion republicana del discurso de Allende el 11 de
septiembre de 1973, en el “acontecimiento dela dignidad de Chile con el Gobierno de
la Unidad Popular”.

Mas que el acontecimiento de la dignidad de Chile, el Gobierno Popular fue la lucha


de clases que, inscrita en el derecho burgues, buscaba exceder el derecho burgues
en la huelga general revolucionaria. Todo ello en el contexto del final de la
Guerra Frfa —que es mucho peor que la Guerra Fria15. Infundir a la polftica de
masas del Gobierno Popular, el valor auratico de la “dignidad”, es recubrir
con categorias esteticas burguesas y catolicas lo que fue la polftica industrial de
un burgues radical casi auratico como Allende. El

El intento de la renovacion socialista nacional de citar el tono de Allende a los


treinta anos de su muerte —que son, a la vez, los treinta anos de traza de la
Dictadura o de los ruidos de Pinochet—, no hacen mas que aumentar el ruido
televisivo contra el tono, como lo subraya Diamela Eltit21. La renovacion
socialista es la decision de borrar el tono de la Republica en el ruido neoliberal
del Golpe en que normalmente habitamos como actualidad. 8. Mas que el
“acontecimiento de la dignidad de Chile”22, el acontecimiento del Gobierno Popular
de Salvador Allende lo fixe de la polftica de masas, del ingreso de la
matriz masiva, de los cordones obrero-industriales, en y como polf-tica. Ya no el
pueblo digno, honrado, aguerrido; sino la masa obrera impersonal, organizada, las
fixerzas de trabajo articula-das en sindicatos. Mas que el acontecimiento de la
dignidad de Chile, el Gobierno Popular fixe la lucha de clases que, inscrita en el
derecho burgues, buscaba exceder el derecho burgues en la huelga general
revolucionaria.

acontecimiento: “llamamos acontecimiento —dice— a algo que emerge rodeado de nada,
soste-niendose en un acto similar a sf mismo, en un comienzo reple-to de sf. El
acontecimiento no es, pero aparece. Y si pudiese hablarse a sf mismo, cosa que no

it is certainly not “a thing of the past” in the Hegelian sense. It is too early to
historicize this art, but perhaps not too early to theorize it. My project, then,

theory, much less to impose it, but to extract some concepts embedded in some

That said, my subject here is post-1989 art. After the events of 1989, especially
the fall of the Berlin Wall and the uprising at Tiananmen Square, there was
some optimism about the possibility of both a new Europe and a new world
order different from the ones conjured by the Bushes and the Clintons; there was
also a boom in architectural projects and art markets.

that looks at me is situated.” Thus seen as (s)he sees, pictured as (s)he pictures,
the Lacanian subject is fixed in a double position, and this leads Lacan to
superimpose on the usual cone of vision that emanates from the subject another cone
that emanates from the object, at the point of light. It is this regard that he
calls “the gaze.”

these ambiguities affect the cultural-political import of abject art.11 Can the
abject be represented at all? If it is opposed to culture, can it be exposed in

problematic, as they were in Surrealism many decades before. Surrealism also used
the abject to test the limits of sublimation; in fact, Andre Breton claimed the
coming together of desublimatory and sublimatory impulses to be the very point of
his movement.18 Yet it was at this point, too, that Surrealism broke down, that it
split into the two factions headed by Breton and Bataille, respectively. According
to Breton, Bataille was an “excrement-philosopher” who refused to rise above mere
matter, who failed to elevate the low to the high.19 For Bataille, on the other
hand, Breton was a “juvenile victim” who was involved in an Oedipal game, an
“Icarian pose” that was taken up less to undo the law than to provoke its
punishment: despite his celebration of desire, Breton was as committed to
sublimation as the next aesthete.20 Elsewhere Bataille termed this aesthetic le jeu
des transpositions, and he dismissed this “game of substitutions” as no match for
the power of perversions: “I defy any amateur of painting to love a picture as much
as a fetishist loves a shoe.”21

Its Discontents (1930) he offered an origin myth to show us why. This famous story
turns on the erection of man, his rising up from all fours to two feet, from the
horizontal to the vertical. With this change in posture, Freud argued, came a
revolution in sense: smell was degraded and sight privileged, the anal
was repressed and the genital pronounced. And the rest was literally history: with
his genitals exposed, man learned shame; in contradistinction to animals, his
sexual frequency became continuous, not periodic; and this coming together of
permanent shame and regular sex impelled him to seek a mate, to form a family, in
short, to found a society. Zany as this heterosexist tale is, it does reveal a
normative conception of civilization—not only as a general sublimation of instincts
but also as a specific reaction against anal eroticism (which is also a specific
abjection of male homosexuality).

Was there a cultural politics in abject art? Often in the general culture of
abjection in the late 1980s and early 1990s, this posture of indifference expressed
a fatigue with the politics of difference. Yet sometimes, too, this posture
intimated a more fundamental fatigue: a strange drive to indistinction, a
paradoxical desire to be desireless, a strong call of regression that went beyond
the infantile to the inorganic.31

Roger Caillois, an associate of the Bataillean Surrealists, considered this drive


to indistinction in terms of the visual; specifically, he argued that some
insects assimilate to the space around them through an automatic mimicry.32
This assimilation by camouflage, Caillois thought, allows for no agency, let
alone subjecthood (these organisms are “dispossessed of [this] privilege,” he
wrote), and in one extraordinary passage he likened this condition of indistinction
to schizophrenia: To these dispossessed souls, space seems to be a devouring force.
Space pursues them, encircles them, digests them in a gigantic phagocytosis
[consumption ofbacteria]. It ends by replacing them. Thai the body separates itself
fan thought, the individual breaks the boundary of his skin and occupies the other
side of his senses. He tries to look at himself fan any point whatever in space He
feds himself becoming space, dark space where things cannot be put. He is similar,
not similar to something, but just similar. And he invents spaces of which he is
“the convulsive possession.”33

to understand this “convulsive possession” in recent art, it must be split into its
two constituent registers: on the one hand, an ecstasy in the imagined breakdown of
image screen and symbolic order; on the other hand, a horror at this breakdown
followed by a despair about it. Early definitions of postmodernism evoked the first
structure of feeling, the ecstatic one, sometimes in analogy with schizophrenia.
Indeed, for Fredric Jameson, the primary symptom of postmodern culture was a quasi-
schizophrenic breakdown in language and time that produced a compensatory
investment in image and space—a capture in the endless present of spectacle.34 And,
in the 1980s, many artists did create images that featured srmulacral intensities
and ahistorical pastiches. In elaborations in the 1990s, however, the second
structure of feeling, the melancholic one, dominated, and sometimes, as in
Kristeva, it too was associated with a symbolic order in crisis. Here, artists were
drawn not to the highs of the simulacra! image but to the lows of the depressive
thing. In this respect, if some modernist artists transcended the referential, and
some postmodernist artists delighted in the imaginary, some abject artists
approached the real.

How did we arrive at a point where critique is dismissed? Over the last few
decades, most of the charges, at least from the Left, have concerned the
positioning of the critic. First, there was a rejection of judgment, especially of
the moral right that seems to be arrogated in any act of critical evaluation. Then,
too, there was a refusal of authority, particularly of the political privilege that
allows the critic to speak abstractly on behalf of others. Finally, there was a
skepticism about distance, about the very possibility of separation from the
culture that the critic purports to examine. “Criticism is a matter of correct
distancing,” Walter Benjamin wrote almost ninety years ago. “It was at home in a
world where perspectives and prospects counted and where it was still possible to
adopt a standpoint. Now things press too urgently on human society.”4 How much more
urgent is that pressing in our age of instantaneous media?

for the charges involving judgment and authority, they boil down to two in the end:
that critique is not reflexive enough about its own claims to truth, and that it is
often driven by a will to power. Two concerns underlie these objections in turn:
that the critic as ideological patron might displace the social group that he means
to represent (a caution first raised by Benjamin in “Author as Producer” [1934] and
later revised by Michel Foucault, Gayatri Spivak, and others), and that critical
theory might be granted a scientific truth (such as Louis Althusser claimed for the
M arx of Capital) that it cannot attain. Such objections are often valid, yet they
are hardly reason enough to throw the baby out with the bathwater.

“Aesthetic acts,” he argues in The Politics of Aesthetics, are “configurations of


experience that create new modes of sense perception and induce novel forms of
political subjectivity.”16 This is a noble formulation, but it grants an agency to
ait that it does not at present possess. That art can intervene effectively in this
manner is far from clear today; certainly it is no match for image industries and
information agencies, both corporate and governmental, that monitor and regulate
the sensible with enormous power. At least for the time being, any new
“distribution of the sensible” through contemporary art borders on wishful
thinking; it might even be a form of faith that calls for demystifiction.

However, some art today does imagine the artwork in terms of subjecthood. In recent
sculpture, for example, the fetish and the part object have returned as common
models for practice, and they explicitly present the artwork as though it were
animated by its own desires.25

the continued importance of antifetishistic critique, which is here motivated


primarily by a resistance to any operation whereby human constructs (God, the

from which position and with which power they are more likely to overbear us than

Again, fetishization involves two operations above all, a misplacing of value or


agency, as underscored by Marx in his account of commodity fetishism, and
a blocking of perception or knowledge, as emphasized by Freud in his account
of sexual fetishism. Both unfold as near-instantaneous relays of recognition
and disavowal: “I know exploited laborers produced this commodity, but nevertheless
it appears immaculate to me”; “I know my mother lacks a penis, but nevertheless I
deny this traumatic absence.” Cynical reason, the dismissive knowingness that often
obstructs our productive engagement in worldly affairs, also has this structure of
“I know but nevertheless.” For example: “I know the ideology of ‘no taxes’ is a
boon to the rich and a bust for me, but nevertheless I subscribe to it.”29

Why take up the bedraggled banner of critique now? The reason is simple (and it
returns us to the concerns with which I began): criticism is essential to the
public sphere, at least as this notion was articulated by Jurgen Habermas in 1962
and developed thereafter.35

Today the social bond is as pressured as the public sphere is atrophied, and
criteria more robust than discursivity and sociability are required in response.
Perhaps the hapless condition of the public sphere makes the concept on which
it depends, citizenship, radical once again (certainly Hannah Arendt has returned
as an essential resource). In any case, citizenship is also under enormous strain,
and this is so on every front.

Certainly we need new accounts of citizenship, ones that aim to take the full
measure of neoliberalism, perhaps along the lines of the citizen of Europe proposed
by Habermas or, even more broadly, of the citizen of the Anthropocene suggested by
Latour.42 Perhaps, too, artists and critics can assist, even lead, in this
imagining (a little wishful thinking of my own), and in this respect the global
range of the contemporary art world might well be a virtue.

The French word precaire indicates a socioeconomic insecurity that is not as
evident in the English term precarious; indeed, precarite is used to describe
the condition of a vast number of laborers in neoliberal capitalism for
whom employment (let alone health care, insurance, or pension) is anything
but guaranteed. This “precariat” is seen as a product of the post-Fordist
economy, though, historically, precarity might be more the rule and the Fordist
promise of relative job security and union protection more the exception5

Here the political dimension of the precarious shades into the ethical. “To give a
form to the precarious,” Hirschhom comments, is to attest to “the fragility of
life,” awareness of which “compels me to be awakened, to be present, to be
attentive, to be open; it compels me to be active.”13 In “Precarious Life” (2004),
her brief essay on Emmanuel Levinas, Judith Butler writes in a similar vein: “In
some way we come to exist in the moment of being addressed, and something about our
existence proves precarious when that address fails.” Here Butler explores the
notion of “the face,” which Levinas posed as the very image of “the extreme
precarious ness of the other.” “To respond to the face, to understand its meaning,”
Butler argues, “means to be awake to what is precarious in another life or, rather,
the precarious-ness of life itself.”14 Hirschhom attempts “to respond to the face,”
to meet its gaze, in his work.

Gramsci (to whom, again, Hirschhorn dedicated his fourth monument) once defined
“common sense” as “the folklore of philosophy,” that is, as a reserve not only of
superstition to be exposed but also of truth to be deployed.27 Sartre wrote about
“the commonplace” in a similar way: “This fine word has several meanings,” the
philosopher remarked; “it refers, doubtless, to the most hackneyed of thoughts, but
these thoughts had become the meeting-place of the community. Everyone finds
himself in them and finds the others too. The commonplace is everyone’s and it
belongs to me; it belongs in me to everyone and it is the presence of everyone in
me.”28

“Energy yes, quality no,” Hirschhorn proclaims. It is a motto that speaks to his
desire to recharge art, especially public art, and his altars, kiosks, monuments,
and festivals do stage a passionate kind of public pedagogy. For Hirschhorn as
for Bataille, any economy is plagued not only by scarcity but also by
surplus. “Energy,” Bataille writes in La part maudite (1949), a key text for
Hirschhorn, “must necessarily be lost without profit; it must be spent, willingly
or not, gloriously or catastrophically”; it is “the accursed share” that must be
expended.29 Hirschhorn

that he aims not only to subject capitalist exchange to critique but also to
propose a different exchange altogether; along the lines of the “general economy”
of nonproductive expenditure advocated by Bataille 34 “This motive is very
important in my work,” Hirschhom says of the Bataillean account of the potlatch in
La part maudite. “I want to make a lot, give a lot ... I want to do that in order

It is little wonder, then, that the concept of the state of exception, developed by
Carl Schmitt in the early 1920s, has returned with such force. For Schmitt,
who became a Nazi jurist, the state of exception to the law that founds the law is
not a primordial act lost in the mists of time; it recurs whenever a government not
simply suspends its judicial code (that is a state of emergency) but actually
nullifies it.42 In fact, as foreseen by Benjamin in “Theses on the Philosophy of
History” (1940), his final text before his suicide while in flight from Nazi
Europe, this state threatens to be “not the exception but the rule.”43 More
recently, Giorgio Agamben has turned this foreboding into a principle: “The Jews
were exterminated not in a mad and giant holocaust,” he argues, “but exactly as
Hitler has announced, ‘as lice,’ which is to say, as bare life.” Agamben extends
this principle to a judgment on contemporary modernity at large: bare life now
approaches normative status, he avers, and the camp is the “new biopolitical nomos
[law] of the planet.”44 In a well-known formulation, Agamben defines “bare life” as
“the life of homo sacer (sacred man), who may be killed and yet not sacrificed.”45

3. Scholars of performance often resort to the linguistic category of the


performative to underscore what performance might do as distinct from what it might
mean. Yet in the context of the reenactments at issue here, the term no longer
signifies as it did in the speech-act theory where it originated: this performative
does not actualize (as a performative utterance is said to do, as in “I pronounce
you husband and wife”) so much as it virtualizes. It seems to offer the presence we
desire, but it is a spectral presence, one that famishes, with the result that as
viewers we come to feel a little spectral as well. In the 1960s the audience was
almost as constitutive of the performance as the performer was (this was taken to
be one of its signal differences from theater); however, in reenactments we are
positioned as incidental witnesses to an event that could as readily occur without
us.8 In fact, some reenactments appear to be more interested in the camera than in
the audience; new performances often come imageready as well. As a result, we do
not seem to exist in the same space-time as the event.

5. Given these problems, why has the performative returned as an almost
automatic good? One reason, along with its promise of presence, is that it seems to
open up the work to its audience, to expose its making once and for all. Such
transparency was a goal of various avant-gardes, both prewar and postwar, and
nowhere more so than in process art in the 1960s. (A famous instance is Verb List
[1967-8], in which Richard Serra announced his intention “to roll, to crease, to
fold ...” his given substances of rubber and lead.)

“It becomes a question of address.”14 Yet when is this activation too great a
burden to place on the viewer; and when is this address too invasive a test for the
audience? Ironically, as with process art again, there is a risk of illegibility
here: often the death of the author has meant not the birth of the reader, as
Barthes imagined, so much as the befuddlement of the viewer. This might serve only
to reposition the artist as both origin and end of the work—the very default that
was to be undone in the first place.15

years ago, is to “enliven what otherwise would remain dead.”17 Here the proper

Rather; what I value is a sense of actuality, in the strong sense of the term
artworks that are able to constellate not only different registers of experience
(aesthetic, cognitive, and critical) but also different orders of temporality. This
constellation is opposed to the virtual confusion of spaces and the zombie
confusion of times with which I began. Yet neither does this actuality simply mean
presence (I have also questioned the desire for presence, or rather
the manipulation of that desire), much less presentism (though a purchase on
the present is one effect of the artistic constellation I have in mind). Any
artwork holds together various times of production and reception, not only as we
confront it in the present of our own experience, but also as other moments are
inscribed in the work as it passes through history.34

It should be stated immediately that the critical analysis of the basic principles
of contemporary architectural ideology does not pretend to have any "revolutionary"
aim. What is of interest here is the precise identification of those tasks which
capitalist develop-ment has taken away from architecture. That is to say, what it
has taken away in general from ideological pre-figuration.

Of course, once the work of ideological criticism has been completed, there remains
the problem of deciding what instruments of knowledge might be immediately useful
to the political struggle. It is precisely here that my discourse must end, but
certainly not by choice. x Preface From the criticism of ideology it is necessary
to pass on to the analysis of the techniques of programing and of the ways in which
these techniques actually affect the vital relationships of production. That is to
say, we must proceed to analyses that, in the field of building activities, are
only today being attempted with the necessary precision and coherence. For those
anxiously seeking an operative criticism, I can only respond with an invitation to
transform themselves into analysts of some precisely defined economic sector, each
with an eye fixed on bringing together capitalist development and the processes of
reorganization and consolidation of the working class.

The bourgeois intellectual's obligation to exist can be seen in the imperativeness


his function assumes as a "social" mission. Among the members of the intellectual
"avant-garde" there exists a sort of tacit understanding concerning their position,
and the mere attempt to expose it arouses a chorus of indignant protests. Indeed,
culture has identified its own function as mediator in such ideological terms that—
all individual good faith aside—its cunning has reached the point where it imposes
the forms of disputation and protest upon its own products. The higher the
sublimation of the conflicts on a formal plane, the more hidden the cultural and
social structures actually expressed by that sublimation.

Attacking the subject of architectural ideology from this point of view means
trying to explain why the apparently most functional proposals for the

proposals devoid of any class connotation, or as mere "alternatives," or even as
points of direct clash between intellectuals and capital.

It should be stated immediately that I do not believe it to be by mere chance that


many of the new and recent 2 Reason's Adventures ideas on architecture have been
gleaned from an accurate reexamination of the origins of the historical avant-garde
movements. Going back to these origins, situated precisely in that period when
bourgeois ideology and intellectual anticipation were intimately connected, the
entire cycle of modern architecture can be viewed as a unitary development. This
makes it possible to consider globally the formation of architectural ideologies
and, in particular, their implications for the city.

To what extent Laugier's ideas on the city could have influenced Cozens' theory of
landscape painting, or Robert Castell's considerations in The Villas of the
Ancients, is not known. What is certain is that the urban invention of the French
abbe and the theories of the English painter have in common a basic method,
in which the tool for a critical intervention in "natural" reality is selection.2

Laugier's words are a penetrating summary of the formal reality of the eighteenth-
century city. No longer archetypal schemes of order, but instead the acceptance of
the antiperspective character of the urban space. And even his reference to the
park has new significance: in its variety, the nature that is now called upon to
form part of the urban structure does away with that comforting rhetorical and
didactic naturalism that had dominated the episodic continuity of Baroque
layouts from the seventeenth to the mid-eighteenth century. Thus Laugier's call to
naturalism

On the one hand, such an enterprise involves a sublimation of physiocratic


theories: the city is no longer seen as a structure that, by means of its own
accumula-tory mechanisms, determines and transforms the processes of the
exploitation of the soil and agricultural production. Inasmuch as the reduction is
a "natural" process, ahistorical because universal, the city is freed of any
considerations of a structural nature.

On the other hand, this naturalism has a function of its own, which is that of
assuring to artistic activity an ideological role in the strictest sense of the
term. And here it is significant that, in exactly the moment when bourgeois economy
began to discover and invent its own categories of action and judgment, giving
to "values" contents directly commeasurable with the dictates of new methods of
production and exchange, the crisis of the old system of values was
immediately hidden by recourse to new sublimations, rendered artificially objective
by means of the call to the universality of Nature.

Urban naturalism, the insertion of the picturesque into the city and into
architecture, as the increased importance given to landscape in artistic ideology
all tended to negate ^the now obvious dichotomy between urban reality and the
reality of the countryside. They served to prove that there was no disparity
between the value acredited to nature and the value acredited to the city as a
productive mechanism of new forms of economic accumulation. The rhetorical and
Arcadian naturalism of the seventeenth century was now replaced by a widely
persuasive naturalism. It is, however, important to underline that the deliberate
abstraction of Enlightenment theories of the city served only at first to destroy
Baroque schemes of city planning and development.

in parentheses by the city, architecture still offered an alternative to the


nihilist outlook apparent behind the hallucinating fantasies of Lequeu,
Belanger, or Piranesi. By renouncing a symbolic role, at least in the traditional
sense, architecture—in order to avoid destroying itself—discovered its own
scientific calling. On one hand, it could become the instrument of
social equilibrium, and in this case it was to have to face in full the question of
building types—something that was to be done by Durand and Dubut. On the other
hand, it could become a science of sensations. This was to be the road pursued by
Ledoux, and in a much more systematic way by Camus de Mezieres. The alternatives
were thus either the study of the forms assumed by different building types, or
architecture parlante: the same two concepts brought into erupting contrast by
Piranesi. But, instead of leading to a solution, these con- Reason's Adventures 11
cepts were to accentuate architecture's internal crisis throughout the nineteenth
century.

But this dissolution was not without consequences. It was Piranesi who carried
Laugier's theoretical intuitions to their extreme conclusions. His ambiguous
evocation of the Campo Marzio is the graphic monument of that tentative opening of

Piranesi's critical interpretation of the Campo Marzio was not without a prophetic

precisely and emphatically to warn of the imminent danger of losing altogether the

in crisis.

Formal invention seems to declare its own primacy, but the obsessive reiteration of
the inventions reduces the whole organism to a sort of gigantic "useless machine."
Rationalism would seem thus to reveal its own irrationality. In the attempt to
absorb all its own contradictions, architectural "reasoning" applies the technique
of shock to its very foundations. Individual architectural fragments push one
against the other, each indifferent to jolts, while as an accumulation they
demonstrate the uselessness of the inventive effort expended on their formal
definition.

the destruction of the very concept of space merges with a symbolic allusion to the
new condition being created by a radically changing society. (Piranesi's "Romanity"
is always matched by an awareness and concern that is European.) In these etchings
the space of the building—the prison—is an infinite space. What has been destroyed
is the center of that space, signifying the correspondence between the collapse of
ancient values, of the ancient order, and the "totality" of the disorder. Reason,
the author of this destruction—a destruction felt by Piranesi to be fatal—is
transformed into irrationality. But the prison, precisely because infinite,
coincides with the space of human existence. This is very clearly indicated by the
hermetic scenes Piranesi designs within the mesh of lines of his "impossible"
compositions. Thus what we see in the Car-ceri is only the new existential
condition of human collectivity, liberated and condemned at the same time i by its
own reason.

Order and chaos, regularity and irregularity, organic structure and the lack of

Baroque precept of unity in variety, which in Shaftsbury had assumed a mystic

operating on that very lack, not in order to give it structure but, rather, to draw
forth from it a whole complex of coexisting meanings: this is what the writings of

The antithesis is complete. It involves the whole way of considering the


communicative role of the city. For the Commission of 1807 the protagonist of the
new ideal and functional message was the urban structure as such. For Antolini, on
the contrary, the restructuring of the city was accomplished by introducing into
the network of its contradictory values a clamorously disruptive urban place,
capable of radiating induced effects that reject any contaminating influence. For
him the city as a system of communications was summed up in the absolute,

The two roads of modern art and architecture are here already delineated. It is, in
fact., the inherent opposition within all modern art: those who search into the

and those who desire to go beyond reality, who want to construct ex novo new
realities, new values, and new public symbols. What divides the Napoleonic

America naturalistic ideology found a properly political field of development. It
was indeed Jefferson who, with extreme lucidity, recognized the institutional and
pedagogical value of architecture. For Jefferson the utilization of classicism,
Palladian-ism, and English experimentalism3 was nothing other than the
demonstration of the fact that, with the American Revolution, the reason of the
European Enlightenment became the practical guide to the "construction of
democracy." With greater effectiveness than any European protagonist of politically
committed art, Jefferson carried out his role as organizer of culture, having the
opportunity to do so in "official" works. This is the role he repeatedly played as
consultant in the planning of Washington, in the designing of the White House and
the Capitol, and in the restoration of the Governor's Mansion in Williamsburg,
and in his architectural activity in general.4

Agricultural economy, local and regional autonomy as pivots of the democratic


system, and the restraining of industrial development all had an explicit
significance for Jefferson. They were symbols of his fear in face of the processes
set in motion by the Revolution. Essentially this was fear of the dangers of
involution, of the transformation of democracy into a new authoritarianism, brought
into being by capitalist competition, urban development, and the birth and growth
of an urban proletariat. In this sense Jefferson was against the city and against
the development of industrial economy. This is why he tried to impede the logical
economic consequences of democracy.

to the concrete and intentional destruction of those values. Washington thus

Thus urban planning and architecture are finally separated. The geometric character
of the plan of Washington, as earlier that of Philadelphia and later that of New
York, does not seek an architectural correspondence in the forms of the single
buildings. Unlike what happens in Saint Petersburg or Berlin, architecture is free
to explore the most diverse expressions. The urban system assumes only the task of
stating the degree to which figurative liberty may be exploited or, better, of
guaranteeing, with its own formal rigidity, a stable reference of dimension.

The fact that architecture could respond to that "universe of precision" with
nothing more than an "approximation" is not surprising. It was in reality the urban
structure, precisely in its registration of the conflicts created by that victory
of technological progress, that had radically changed. The city had become an open
structure, within which it was utopian to seek points of equilibrium. But
architecture, at least as traditionally conceived, is a stable structure, which
gives form to permanent values and consolidates urban morphology.

Those wishing to give up this traditional conception and bind architecture instead
to the destiny of the city, had only to regard the city as the specific place
of technological production—and the city itself as a technological product—thus
reducing architecture to a mere link in the production chain. Piranesi's prophecy
of the bourgeois city as an "absurd machine" was, in a certain way, actually
realized in the metropolises organized in the nineteenth century as primary
structures of the capitalist economy.

For all that has been said, it will be seen that this problem is intrinsic to the
formation of the urban ideology. And in the abstract, it is familiar to all
the figurative arts of the nineteenth century, since the very origin of romantic
eclecticism was the redemption of ambiguity as a critical value in itself: exactly
that ambiguity pushed to the extreme by Piranesi.

The first political responses to this situation centered on regaining a traditional


utopianism, which the Enlightenment seemed to have done away with. But the specific
responses of the methods of visual communication introduced a new type of
utopianism: the utopia implicit in the realized facts, in the concreteness
of "things" constructed and verifiable. For this reason the utopian trend in
nineteenth-century politics was to have only very indirect relationships with the
ideas of the "modern movement." Indeed, those .relationships, which have been
recognized for the most part by present-day historians, between the utopias of
Fourier, Owen, and Cabet and the theoretical models of Unwin, Geddes, Howard,
or Stein, on the one hand, and those of the Garnier-Le Corbusier current, on the
other, are but suppositions in need of careful verification. It is likely that
these relationships will come to be considered as functional and as forming part of
the same phenomena one wishes to analyze by means of them.23

It is clear, however, that the specific responses of Marxist criticism to the


problem around which utopian thought was obliged to turn incessantly had two
immediate consequences for the formation of new urban ideologies: 1 By again
considering the general problems in strictly structural terms, it made evident the
checkmate to which utopia condemned itself, revealing the secret will to arrive at
the brink of destruction implicit in the utopian hypothesis. 2 By doing away
with the romantic dream of a mere incidence of subjective action on the destiny of
society, the fact that the very concept of destiny is a creation stemming from the
new relationships of production became clear to bourgeois thought. As a sublimation
of real phenomena, the courageous acceptance of destiny—a fundamental of the
bourgeois ethic—was able to redeem the misery and impoverishment which
that "destiny" itself had induced at all levels of civil life, and above all in its
archform: the city.

Being directly related to the reality of production, architecture was not only the
first to accept, with complete lucidity, the consequences of its own
commercialization, but was even able to put this acceptance into effect before the
mechanisms and theories of political economy had furnished the instruments for such
a task. Starting from its own specific problems, modern architecture as a whole had
the means to create an ideological situation ready to fully integrate design, at
all levels, with the reorganization of production, distribution, and consumption in
the new capitalist city.

Analyzing the course of the modern movement as an ideological instrument from the
second half of the nineteenth century up to 1931, the date in which the crisis was
felt in all sectors and at all levels, means tracing a history divided into three
successive phases: (a) a first, which witnesses the formation of urban ideology
as an overcoming of late romantic mythology; (b) a second, which sees the task
of the artistic avant-garde develop as the creation of ideological projects and the
individualization of 1'unsatisfied needs, which are then consigned for concrete
resolution to architecture (painting, poetry, music, and sculpture being able to
realize this objective on but a purely ideal level); (c) a third, in which
architectural ideology becomes ideology of the plan. This phase is in turn put in
crisis and supplanted when, after the crisis of 1929, with the 48 Form as
Regressive Utopia elaboration of the anticyclical theories and the international
reorganization of capital, and after the launching in Russia of the First Five-Year
Plan, architecture's ideological function seems to be rendered superfluous, or
limited to rear-guard tasks of marginal importance.

The unproductiveness of intellectual work was the crime that weighed upon the
conscience of the cultural world of the nineteenth century, and which
advanced ideologies had to overcome. To turn ideology into utopia thus became
imperative. In order to survive, ideology had to negate itself as such, break its
own crystallized forms, and throw itself entirely into the "construction of the
future." This revision of ideology was thus a project for establishing the dominion
of a realized ideology over the forms of development.

It is in this way, as Cacciari has acutely observed, that the disenchantment of


Weber's negation of value as a measure of judgment really takes its place as the
ultimate consequence of Nietzsche's negative and "scandalous" affirmation of the
subject. In Cacciari's words: 31 See K. Mannheim, "Wissenssoziologie,
Handworterbuch der Soziologie, Stuttgart 1931; and M. Weber, Gesammeltepolitische
Schriften, 2nd ed., Tubingen 1958. 54 Ideology and Utopia Weber removes this
"scandal": by now the subject can only be the subject-function, precisely the
intellectual, or otherwise one must go back to the old illusions and deceptions of
the "god who speaks to us," of the "god in me," in a word, to the substantiality of
the Eeo To abolish all retrogressive processes is, above all, to make the Ego that
which it is and must be in the irreversible context of its "destiny."32 If the
subject is now the system, liberty from value is liberty from subjectivity itself.
The relativity of value must not be the object of new "sacred sciences.
The desacralization of intellectual activity is but the necessary premise for the
correct functioning of that activity within the process of self-rationalization of
that system.

32 M. Cacciari, "Sulla genesi del pensiero negativo, Contropiano, 1969, no. 1, pp.
186—187 Extremely important is the connection Cacciari has established beyond doubt
between Nietzsche's criticism of values and Weber's use of that negation. Cacciari
writes: "The criticism, implicit and explicit, in all of Nietzsche, of the idea of
Vergeistigung is intended precisely to underline the separation of the Geist from
the general process of rationalization; or, better, to emphasize how that
Vergeistigung is to be understood as useful to the material life, to the
preservation in the process, of the capitalist system. That Geist is no longer
Kultur, extraneous or even contrary to the process of the system but the
rationalization of the system, of its all-embracing existence" {op. cit. p. 182).
Nietzsche's happy science consists in just this: in recognizing itself as
an active, effective principle of an existence accepted in the entirety of its
contradictions. Nietzsche's disenchantment is therefore the predecessor of
Weber's acceptance of "destiny." For both Nietzsche and Weber "to emancipate
the ideology of the system from the problematic question of 'values' is to find
the true scientific mentality, also and precisely when they see that it is this
system which is liberated from values and which insists on imposing itself.
Therefore ideology is true only in the measure in which it is coherent with and
structurally functional to this material process, and in the measure in which it
criticizes and opposes anything putting this process in doubt or crisis" {op. cit.,
p. 183).

The "Dadaist revolution, much more than that of the Surrealists, lies precisely in
the courage to explode the contradiction which belongs to the system by placing
itself before it as reality. Liberation from value in this sense signifies
establishing the premises for action in that reality, in that field of
indeterminant, fluid, and ambiguous forces. For this reason all interpretations
of Dadaism or Futurism as hermetic self-recognitions of the irrational, or as cupio
dissolvi in it, must be considered completely erroneous. For the avant-
garde movements the destruction of values offered a wholly new type of rationality,
which was capable of coming face to face with the negative, in order to make
the negative itself the release valve of an unlimited potential for development.
The cynicism of the avant-garde—at least where it is explicit—is nothing but
the "disposition" to this ideology of development, of the revolution of individual
and collective behavior, of the complete dominion over existence.

Development's dynamic and dialectic character having been revealed, a plan was
required against the constant danger of internal deflagration. It is in this way
that, demolishing the old orders and stressing reality as the "realm of absurdity,"

By now ideology is given once and for all in the form of a dialectic that is
founded on the negative, that makes the contradiction the propelling factor of
development, that recognizes the reality of the system starting from the presence
of the contradiction. Such a dialectic no longer need return continually to
ideology. Not constituting an abstract scheme of behavior, but, rather, defining at
one and the same time the real bases of the interrelationships of capitalist
production and a strategy of planning, this ideology does away with any utopian
model and any possibility of the development of ideology itself. In other words,
any reelaboration of ideology carried out in an institutional system of values is
but pure and simple repetition. Ideology can only pass again through the same
stages already passed, continually finding the highest form of itself in the form
of the mediation of the contradiction.

The plan tends, on one hand, to be identified with the institution that supports
it, and on the other, to be set forth as a specific institution in itself. The
dominion of capital is thus realized strictly in terms of the logic of its own
mechanisms, without any extrinsic justifications, 36 Typical examples of this are
the theories of Abendroth and Dahrendorf on the necessary integration of
competition into the factory and into society. See R. Dahrendorf, Soziale Klassen

These two movements have but one ultimate significance. The inteUectual avant-garde
had to occupy an area from which until now it had attentively kept its distance:
that of work. It being no longer possible to maintain the distance from productive
work, which in the past had ensured the sacredness of intellectual research, there
was nothing for the intellectual avant-garde to do but voluntarily take the plunge.
This, however, implied the destruction of its own classic role. Benjamin's "end of
the aura" is not induced only by the general application of new production methods,
but is also the result of a conscious choice.

The capitalist counterattack assumes for itself and redefines the fundamental
elements of "socialist" strategy. Socialism as accelerated accumulation, industrial
reconstruction, and state intervention in the economic cycle, but above all as a
universal defense of live work The Sozialismus of large German capital, between
1918 and 1921, thus guarantees itself an organic relationship in actual tact with
the political and trade-union organization of the working class. And it
is inevitable that this phase be obdurately swept away when, after any danger of an
autonomous organization at the working-class level has been destroyed, capital can
again assume directly the social management and organization of its own cycle.44

The aspiration to the autonomy of intellectual endeavor was a continuation of the


project for recovering the subjectivity expropriated by the capitalist division of
work. Intellectual work as "class service" was a project for restoring—indirectly—
that same subjectivity to the class from which it had been expropriated. It
seems hardly necessary to underline the "poverty" of these two ideological
directions; I am here only exposing the complementary character of their
objectives.

Among all the historical avant-garde movements, autonomy of formal construction no


longer necessarily meant controlling daily experience through form. They were now
disposed to accept the idea that it is experience that dominates the subject. The
problem was to plan the disappearance of the subject, to cancel the anguish caused
by the pathetic (or ridiculous) resistance of the individual to the structures of
domination that close in upon him, to indicate the voluntary and docile submission
to those structures of domination that close in upon him, to indicate the voluntary

46 Extremely interesting are the reactions to the awareness of this dissolution of


tragedy, in the 1920s and 30s, on the part of the advanced theorists of
the capitalist bourgeoisie and on the part of "left-wing communism." For the
latter, the intellectual opposition to the capitalist destruction of the bourgeois
Geist, of the utopia of Form, of "problematic" humanism, was identified with
the tendency to recover such castoff ideological instruments by delivering
them into the hands of the proletariat. Marxist humanism is thus seen as a project
for the extension to the working class of the "Form-Utopia of the bourgeoisie which
is Tragedy": the bourgeois hero is transformed into the collective hero. Such a
process is very clear in the thought of the young Lukacs, as in Lukacs the Marxist,
but also in certain passages of Korsch and Lowith, and—as pure ideology—in Bertolt
Brecht. See A. Asor Rosa, "II giovane Lukacs teorico dell'arte borghese,"

Only a humanity that has absorbed and made its own the ideology of work, that does
not persist in considering production and organization something other than itself
or simply instruments, that recognizes itself to be part of a comprehensive plan

having created a system of means without knowing how to control the "revolt of the

"Negative thought" had enunciated its own project for survival in its refutation of
the Hegelian dialectic and a recovery of the contradictions this had eliminated.
"Positive thought" does nothing but overturn that negativeness on itself. The
negative is revealed as such, even in its "ineluctability." Resignation to it
is only a first condition for making possible the perpetuation of the intellectual
disciplines; for making possible the recovery for intellectual work (at the price
of destroying its "aura") of the tradition of its "sacred" extraneousness to the

48 This can be felt in the pessimism of Levi-Strauss, completely dominated by an


absolute of the human, that by not corresponding with reality produces
the structuralist outlook of a reconstructing-for-nothing, of an exit from the
world, provoked by the "betrayal" of the world itself. for what is the use of
action, if the thinking which guides that action leads to the discovery of
meaninglessness? The world began without the human race and it will end without
it. The institutions, manners, and customs which I shall have spent my life
in cataloguing and trying to understand are an ephemeral efflorescence of
a creative process in relation to which they are meaningless As for the creations
of the human mind, they are meaningful only in relation to that mind and will fall
into nothingness as soon as it ceases to exist. C. Levi-Strauss, Tristes tropiques,

Engels' own observations to introduce the subject of the general extension of


working-class conditions in the urban structure. Benjamin writes: In Engels the
crowd has something alarming about it. It arouses a moral reaction in him. To this
is added an aesthetic reaction: the rhythm in which the passersby encounter and
pass each other is unpleasant to him. The fascination of his description lies
precisely in the way his incorruptible critical nature is fused with a patriarchal
tone. The author comes from a still-provincial Germany and perhaps the temptation
to lose himself in a flood of human beings never crossed his mind.51

The mass is so intrinsic to Baudelaire that in his writings one looks in vain for a
description of it . Baudelaire does not describe the population or the city. And it
was precisely in avoiding this that he was able to evoke the one in the image of
the other. His crowd is always that of the metropolis; his Paris is always
overpopulated. This is what makes him so superior to Barbier, in whom—the procedure
being description—the masses and the city are independent one from the other. In
the Tableaux parisiens, one can almost always feel the secret presence of a mass.52
The presence, or rather immanence, of the real relationships of production in the
behavior of the "public" who use the city, who are at the same time unconscious of
being used by it, is similar to the presence of an observer such as Baudelaire.

The arcades and department stores of Paris, like the great expositions, were
certainly the places in which the crowd, itself become a spectacle, found the
spatial and visual means for a self-education from the point of view of capital.56
But throughout the nineteenth century this recreational-pedagogical experience,
precisely in being concentrated in exceptional architectural types, still
dangerously revealed its restricted scope. The ideology of the public is not, in
fact, an end in itself. It is only a moment of the ideology of the city as a
productive unity in the proper sense of the term and, simultaneously, as an
instrument of coordination of the production-distribution-consumption cycle. This
is why the ideology of consumption, far from constituting an isolated or successive
moment of the organization of production, must be offered to the 55 Ibid. 56
The relation between the rise of the ideology of the public and the program of
the great expositions has been analyzed by A. Abruzzese in the essay "Spet-tacolo e
alienazione/' Contropiano, 1968, no. 2, pp. 379-421. On arcades see the recent and
very well documented volume by J. F. Geist, Passagen, ein Bautyp des 19.

public as the ideology of the correct use of the city. (It may be appropriate to
recall here how much the problem of behavior influenced the experience of the
European avant-garde, and the symptomatic example of Loos, who in 1903, upon his
return from the United States, published two numbers of Das Andere, dedicated with
a polemical and ironic tone to introducing into bourgeois Vienna the "modern" ways
of the city-dweller.)

Free the experience of shock from any automatism; found, on the basis of that
experience, visual codes and codes of action transformed by the already
consolidated characteristics of the capitalist metropolis (rapidity
of transformation, organization and simultaneousness of communications, accelerated
tempo of use, eclecticism); reduce the artistic experience to a pure object
(obvious metaphor for object-merchandise); involve the public, unified in an avowed
interclass and therefore anti-bourgeois ideology: these are the tasks that all
together were assumed by the avant-garde of the twentieth century. And I must
repeat, all together, and without any distinction between Constructivism and the
art of protest. Cubism, Futurism, Dada, all the historical avant-garde movements

the continual technical revolution. For all the avant-garde movements—and not only
in the field of painting—the law of assemblage was fundamental. And since the
assembled objects belonged to the real world, the picture became a neutral field on
which to project the experience of the shock suffered in the city. f The problem

The laws of production thus became part of a new universe of conventions,


explicitly put forth as "natural." This is the reason why the avant-garde movements
did not concern themselves with the problem of a rapproachment with the public. On
the contrary, this was a problem that could not even be posed. Doing nothing other
than interpreting something necessary and universal, the avant-garde could accept
temporary unpopularity, well knowing that their break with the past was the
fundamental condition for their value as models for action. Art as a model of
action. This was the great guiding principle of the artistic redemption of the
modern bourgeoisie. But it was at the same time an absolute which gave rise to new
and irrepressible contradictions. Life and art having been revealed antithetical,
there had to be found, either means of mediation—following this road the entire
artistic production accepted the problematic as its new ethical horizon—or ways by
which art could pass into life, even if the Hegelian prophecy of the death of art
thus became a reality.

The city was the object to which neither Cubist painting, nor the Futurist
"cuffings, nor Dadaist nihilism refer specifically, but which—precisely because
continually presupposed—was the benchmark of the avant-garde movements. Mondrian
was to have the courage to "name" the city as the final object toward which
neoplastic composition tended. But he was to be forced to recognize that, once it

Dada instead plunged into chaos. By representing chaos, it confirmed its reality;
by treating it with irony, it exposed a necessity that had been lacking. This
unprovided necessity was precisely that control of formlessness and chaos that De
Stijl, all the European Constructivist currents, and even the formalist aesthetic
of the nineteenth century—from Sichtbarkeit on—posed as the new frontier of visual
communications. Thus it is not surprising that Dadaist anarchy and De Stijl
order converged and mingled from 1922 on, from the aspect of theory as well as that
of practice, in which the main concern was that of working out the means of a

But the real place of the improbable is the city. The formlessness and chaos of the
city is therefore to be redeemed by extracting from within it all its
progressive virtues. The necessity of a programed control of the new forces
released by technology was very clearly pointed out by the avant-garde movements,
who immediately after discovered they were not capable of giving concrete form to
this entreaty of Reason. It was at this point that architecture could enter the
scene, absorbing and going beyond all the entreaties of the avant-garde movements.
And architecture alone being in a position to really respond to the needs
indicated by Cubism, Futurism, Dada, De Stijl, and international '96 The Dialectic

mation of Le Corbusier's Plan Voisin (1925) and the transformation of the Bauhaus
(1923), contained this contradiction: starting from the particular sector
of building production, architecture discovered that the preestablished objectives
could be reached only by relating that sector to the reorganization of the
city. Thus, just as the necessities singled out by the avant-garde had referred to
the sectors of visual communica-tiQn most directly related to the economic process—
architecture and industrial design—so the planning enunciated by architectural and
urban theories referred to something other than itself. In this case the
something other was a restructuring of production and consumption in general; in
other words, the planned coordination of production. In this sense architecture—
beginning with itself—mediated realism and utopia. The utopia consisted in
obstinately hiding the fact that the ideology of planning could be realized in
building production only by indicating that it is beyond it that the true plan can
take form; rather, that once come within the sphere of the reorganization of
production in general, architecture and urbanism would have to be the objects and
not the subjects of the Plan.

Architecture between 1920 and 1930 was not ready to accept such consequences. What
was clear was its "political" role. Architecture (read: programing and planned

Sachlichkeit adapted the method of designing to the idealized structure of the
assembly line. The forms and methods of industrial work became part of
the organization of the design and were reflected even in the ways proposed for the
consumption of the object. From the standarized element, to the cell, the single
block, the housing project and finally the city: architecture between the two wars
imposed this assembly line with an exceptional clarity and coherence. Each
"piece" on the line, being completely resolved in itself, tended to disappear or,
better, to formally dissolve in the assemblage.

The user, summoned to complete Mies van der Rohe's or Gropius' "open" spaces,
was the central element of this process. Since the new forms were no longer meant
to be absolute values but instead proposals for the organization of collective life
—the integrated architecture of Gropius—architecture summoned the public to
participate in its work of design. Thus through architecture the ideology of the
public took a great step forward.

The architecture of the large city depends essentially on the solution given to two
factors: the elementary cell and the urban organism as a whole. The single room
as the constituent element of the habitation will determine the aspect of the
habitation, and since the habitations in turn form blocks, the room will become a
factor of urban configuration, which is .architecture's true goal. Reciprocally,
the planimetric structure of the citv will have a substantial influence on the
design of the habitation and the room.63

The cell is not only the prime element of the continuous production line
that concludes with the city, but it is also the element that conditions the
dynamics of the aggregations of building structures. Its standard quality permits
its analysis and its solution in the abstract. The building cell understood in this
sense represents the basic structure of a production program, from which is
excluded any other standard component. The single building is no longer an
"object." It is only the place in which the elementary assemblage of single cells
assumes physical form. Since

This was not a simple purist "manifesto." Hilber-seimer's considerations regarding


the architecture of the metropolis—wholly in line with the analogous observations
made by Behrens in 191467—constituted a logical deduction made from hypotheses
always strictly controlled in their conceptual elaboration. Hilber-seimer did not
offer "models" for designing, but rather established, at the most abstract and
therefore most general level possible, the coordinates and dimensions of the design
itself. In this way Hilberseimer—far more than Gropius, Mies, or Bruno Taut, in the
same years —made clear what the new tasks were to which architects were called in
this phase marked by the reorganization of production.

architect as producer of objects had indeed become an inadequate figure. It was now
no longer a question of giving form to single elements of the city, nor even to
simple prototypes. The real unity of the production cycle having been identified in
the city, the only suitable role for the architect was as organizer of that cycle.
Carrying the proposition to the extreme, the activity of deviser of models of
organization, on which Hilberseimer insisted, was the only one completely
reflecting both the necessity of Taylorizing building production and the new
role of technician that had become so much a part of this necessity.

With this outlook Hilberseimer could avoid involving himself in the "crisis of the
object," noted with disquiet by architects such as Loos or Taut. For Hilberseimer,
the "object" did not enter into crisis: it had already disappeared from the
panorama of his considerations, and the only situation there demanding
his attention was that dictated by the laws of organization. The real value of
Hilberseimer's contribution has been seen, correctly, to lie precisely in this.

The Hofe in Vienna and the public buildings of Poelzig or Mendelsohn were certainly
extraneous to the new methods of urban intervention of the avant-garde "Radical"
Architecture and the City 109 movements. They indeed rejected the new horizons
discovered by an art that had accepted its own "technical reproducibility" as a
means of influencing human behavior. Nevertheless, they seem to assume a
critical value, and precisely in regard to the development of the modern industrial
city. Works such as Poelzig's Grosses Schauspielhaus in Berlin, the Chile house and
other works in Hamburg by Fritz Hoger, and the buildings in Berlin by Hans
Hertlin and Ernst and Gunther Paulus certainly did not construct a new urban
reality. But, resorting to formal exasperations rife with pathos, they commented
the contradictions of the operative reality.

Gropius and Bartning remained faithful to the concept of the housing project as an

Haring's emphatic organic expression. If the ideology of the Siedlung consummated,
to use Benjamin's phrase, the destruction of the "aura" traditionally connected
with the "piece" of architecture, Scharoun's and Haring's "objects" tended instead
to recover an "aura, even if it was one conditioned by new production methods and

In setting out these objectives Le Corbusier is conscious of the threefold front on


which architecture must combat. If architecture is now synonymous with
the organization of production, it is also true that, beyond production itself,
distribution and consumption are the determining factors of the cycle. The
architect is an organizer, not a designer of objects. This assertion of
Le Corbusier's is not a slogan but an obligatory directive that connects
intellectual initiative and the civilisation machiniste.

More precisely, form assumes the task of rendering authentic and natural the

to subjugate nature totally in a continual process of transformation, for Le

study of the Le Corbusier archive in Paris, relative to the design and execution of
the complex at Pessac and to Le Corbusier's earlier studies for workmen's housing,
constitutes the beginning of a new trend of research, destined to radically revise

Obus plan does not require merely a new land statute that by overcoming the
anarchic paleocapitalist accumulation of terrain makes all the city soil
available for a total and organic reorganization, becoming thus an urban system in
the proper sense of the term.76 In this case the complete availability of the
terrain is not enough. The fact is that the industrial object does not presuppose
any single given location in the space of the city. Serial production here
basically implies a radical overcoming of any spatial hierarchy. The
technological universe is impervious to the here and the there. Rather, the natural
place for its operations is the entire human environment—a pure topological field,
as Cubism, Futurism, and Elementarism well understood. Thus in the reorganization
of the city it is the entire three-dimensional space that must become available.

It is obvious that this conception of the city involves the distinction of two
scales of intervention, two cycles of production and consumption. The restructuring
of the total urban space and landscape necessitates the rationalization of the
overall organization of the city machine. On this scale technological structures
and systems of communication must be such that they can construct a unitary image.
They must so operate that the antinaturalism of the artificial 76 Le Corbusier's
experience at Algiers needs still further study. See, however, the chapter

Also on the scale of the urban structure, now finally resolved in an organic whole,
what emerges is the positive quality of the contradictions, the reconciliation of
the irrational and the rational, the "heroic" composition of violent tensions. By
means of the structure of the image, and only by this means, is the reign of
necessity fused with that of liberty. The former is explicated by the rigorously
controlled calculations of the plan; the latter, by the recovery within it of a

allowed the public must be pushed to the point of permitting the public—the
proletariat in the case of the serpentine that winds along the seaside, and the
upper middle class on the hills of Fort-rEmpereur—to express its own bad taste.
Architecture thus becomes a pedagogical act and a means of collective integration.

In respect to industry, however, that liberty assumes a still greater significance.


Le Corbusier does not crystallize the minimal unit of production in standard
functional elements, as did May in his Frankfurter Kikche. On the scale of the
single object account must be taken of the exigencies of the continual
technological revolution, styling, and rapid consumption, dictated by a dynamic
capitalism in expansion. The residential cell, theoretically consumable in brief
time, can be substituted at any change of individual necessity—at any change of
necessity induced by the renewal of models and residential standards dictated by
production.79

79 On the basis of these considerations one could refute the thesis of Banham, who
from a technological point of view criticizes the masters of the modern movement
for their unprogressive stand in relation to the problem of building types. "In
opting for stabilised types or norms, architects opted for the pauses when the
normal processes of technology were interrupted, those processes of change and
renovation that, as far as we can see, can only be halted by abandoning technology
as we know it today, and bringing both research and mass-production to a stop." (R.
Banham, Theory and Design in the First Machine Age, Architectural Press, London
1960, p. 329). It is perhaps superfluous to note that all the architectural science
fiction that has proliferated from 1960 up to today, emphasizing the value of the
technological processes as "image," is sadly far behind Le Corbusier's Obus plan.

We must now try to answer the obvious question. Why did Le Corbusier's plan for
Algiers, as well as his later plans for European and African cities and even
his lesser proposals, remain a dead letter? We have said that those proposals
constitute, even today, the most advanced and formally elevated hypotheses of
bourgeois culture in the field of architectural design and urbanism. Is this
statement not contradicted by the failures experienced by Le Corbusier?

To this question there are many possible answers, all valid and complementary. It
should first of all be noted that Le Corbusier worked as an "intellectual" in
the strict sense of the term. He was not, like Taut, May, or Wagner, associated
with the local or state authorities. His hypotheses were derived from a specific
reality (certainly the particular formation of the terrain and the historical
stratification of Algiers are exceptions and the form of the plan that takes
account of them is not repeatable), but his method can most surely be
broadly applied. From the particular to the universal: the exact contrary of the
method followed by the intellectuals of the Weimar Republic. It is also significant
that Le Corbusier worked at Algiers for more than four years The Crisis of Utopia:
Le Corbusier at Algiers 133 without an official appointment or compensation. He
"invented" his commission, made it generally applicable and was disposed to
personally pay for his own active and creative role.

It is significant that almost all the objectives formulated in the economic field
by Keynes' General Theory can be found as pure ideology in modern architecture.
"Free oneself from the fear of the future by fixing the future as the present"
(Negri): the basis of Keynesian interventionism is the same as that of modern art.
And in a precisely political sense it is also at the base of Le Corbusier's
theories of urbanism. Keynes reckons with the "party of catastrophy" and trys
to control its menace by absorbing it at an always new level.81 Le Corbusier takes
account of the reality of class in the modern city and transposes the conflicts to
a higher level, giving life to the most elevated proposal for the integration of
the public, involved as operators and active consumers in the urban mechanism of
development, now rendered organically "human.

The recovery of the concept of art thus serves this new cover-up role. It is true
that whereas industrial design takes a lead position in technological production
and conditions its quality in view of an increase in consumption, pop art,
reutilizing the residues and castoffs of that production, takes its place in the
rear guard. But this is the exact reflection of the twofold request now made to the
techniques of visual communication. Art which refuses to take its place in the
vanguard of the production cycle, actually demonstrates that the process of
consumption tends to the infinite. Indeed even the rejects, sublimated into useless
or nihilist objects which bear a new value of use, enter into the production-
consumption cycle, if only through the back door.

the public must be convinced that this chaos contains an unexplored richness,

Beyond its immense possibilities and the unlimited realms it opens to us,
technology bears witness to the flexibility indispensible in a period of
transition: it makes it possible for the conscious artist to operate, no longer on
the formal effects of communication, but on its very terms, on the human
imagination. Contemporary technology indeed permits the imagination to take over:
freed of any normative shackle, of any problem of realization or production, the
creative imagination becomes the same as the planetary conscience. The prospective
aesthetic is the vehicle of man's greatest hope: his collective liberation.
The socialization of art directs the convergence of creative forces and production
to an objective of dynamic synthesis: the technological metamorphosis. It is
through this restructuring that man and reality find their true modern face, that
they become natural, all alienation past.84 The circle closes. Marcusian mythology
is adopted to demonstrate that only by immersion in the present relationships of
production is it possible to achieve the vaguely identified "collective liberty."
It is enough to "socialize art" and place it at the head of technological 84

matters little if the whole cycle of modern art shows clearly the utopianism of

agreement between protest and preservation, between symbolic metaphor and
productive processes, between evasion and real-politik.

90 There is nothing more erroneous than the interpretation of Mies van der Rohe in
his late works as contradicting the Mies of the 1920s, or the reading of his late
designs as renunciatory incursions into the unruffled realm of the neoacademic. It
is impossible to understand Mies—perhaps the most "difficult" of the architects of
the "golden generation"—if one separates his radical elemen-tarism (which formed
part of the tragically ascetic atmosphere of the Berlin avant-garde of 1919-1922)
from the experiences of Dadaism. Indeed, I believe that his friendship with Kurt
Schwitters and Hans Richter and his collaboration with magazines such as Friihlicht
and G can explain many things otherwise incomprehensible. On the other hand, it
should be noted that his relationship with the De Stijl group, on which Zevi
insisted (see B. Zevi, Poetica dell'archi-tettura neoplastica, Tamburini, Milan
1959), has been denied by Mies himself in an interview with Peter Blake (see P.
Blake, "A Conversation with Mies," edited by G. M. Kallmann, in Four Great Makers
of Modern Architecture, symposium held at Columbia University, Da Capo Press, New
York 1970, p. 93 ff.). In order to understand the reason for such an affirmation
one must go back to the completely antiutopian culture of the early Mies, as he
expresses it, for example, in his essay "Rundschau zum neuen Jahrgang," Die Form,
1927, no. 2, p. 59. In this sense I reject the interpretation of Mies' late works
in the article by P. Serenyi, "Spinoza, Hegel and Mies: the Meaning of the New
National Gallery in Berlin," Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians,
XXX, 1971, no. 3, p. 240, or that of S. Moholy-Nagy, "Has 'Less is More'
become 'Less is Nothing'?" in Four Great Makers, cit., pp. 118-123. More
objective, even if far from the hypotheses stated here, is the essay by U. Conrads,
"Ich mache ein Bild Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Baumeister einer
strukturellen Architektur," in Jahrhuch Preussischer Kulturhesitz 1968, Grote,
Cologne-Berlin 1969, vol. VI, pp. 57-74.

1 In the first place, the "formal" approach to problems of aesthetic


communication offered a formidable theoretical basis to the avant-garde movements
of the early twentieth century. The influence of the theories of Opojaz on Russian
Futurism is only one particularly evident example of this (because in this case
the relations between art and the techniques of analysis are very clear and
verifiable historically), but the entire theory of the avant-garde can be read in
this light. 2 In the second place, it must be born in mind that the
contributions of Wittgenstein, Carnap, and Frege established almost simultaneously
the areas of pertinence relative to grammar, logic, and semiology. Peirce was thus
to be enabled to indicate the conditions of manipulability of the pure sign devoid
of any symbolic implication, of any semantic reference.

95 A study might well be made on the whole history of the inevitable


and progressive transformation of Futurist and Dadaist mockery into new models of
artistic behavior. In fact, in Dada and the best of Marinetti there is implicit
in the negation of every value a strong adherence to Weber's Wertfreiheit, or
in other words to the "freedom from Value" already dramatically declared
by Nietzsche to be the indispensible condition of action. Nietzsche's song "Yea and
Amen" is the goal to which the Dadaist protests inevitably tended, as later the
vain "revolutionary" aspirations of Surrealism. On this see the interesting essay

The attempt to revitalize architecture by means of an exploration of its internal
structures comes about just at the moment when avant-garde studies in the
linguistic field are abandoning "ambiguous" communications and taking their place

This phenomenon is easily explained. Through semiology architecture seeks its own
meaning, while tormented by the sense of having lost its meaning altogether. In
this is clearly to be seen a further contradiction. An architecture that has
accepted the reduction of its own elements to pure signs, and the construction of
its own structure as an ensemble of tautological relationships that refer to
themselves in a maximum of "negative entropy"—according to the language of
information theory—cannot turn to reconstructing "other" meanings through the use
of analytic techniques which have their origins in the application of neo-
positivist theories.

It is no longer ideology that, after having assumed utopian connotations, suggests


new lines of work to the programers. Work on the materials of communication (i.e.,
all the techniques of visual, literary, or musical communication and their

A completely structuralist criticism, however, can never ''explain7' the sense of a


work. It can do no more than "describe77 it, since the only logic at its disposal
is that based on yes-no, correct-incorrect, precisely analogous to the mathematical
logic that guides the functioning of an electronic brain. (It is not accidental
that Max Bense refers directly to the theses of R. S. Hartmann on the mathematical
measurement of value.)101 In the era of the reproducibility of the work of art,
the structure of the processes of its formation-even when a calculator does not
intervene in its design—is governed by the logic of automation. The pictures
Moholy-Nagy made on the telephone, in 1922, were not only prophecies of present-day
procedures of programed assemblage in highly industrialized architecture, but
also a complete clarification of the conditions of existence of a work of art that
does not want to turn out to be—as Adorno would like—regressive utopia,
"conscious" nonsense about its own alienation. Thus there is but one contribution a
consistent structuralism can offer to present-day architecture and art: the exact
dimension of its own functionality in the universe of capitalist development, in
the universe of integration.

is true that the value of an aesthetic object is not inherent to it. It is,
however, also true that the value attributed to it is not a 'value' understood
traditionally, according to pure axiological categories or according to parameters
of conscience, but it is identified with its describability. In other words, the
qualities of value, being describable quantities, lose any aura of metaphysical
indeterminateness and can be circumscribed within the area of measurable
quantitative phenomenon. Evaluation thus becomes a simple description." (G.

structural method, is today an ideology; more exactly, an ideology of


communication.102 The single and collective universe of development must be
bound together by a band of communications capable of repairing any eventual break,
of settling every strife, and of rendering productive contradiction itself.
Thus the poetry of ambiguity corresponds perfectly to the project wherein the
public is a protagonist of the urban universe by which it is managed. Important in
this regard are Bense's observations on the analogy existing between the structures
of abstract expressionist painting (Farbtexturen) and the structures of
communication of the metropolitan landscape (Geschwindigkeitstex-turen).103 Modern
urbanism—inasmuch as it is a utopian attempt to preserve a form for the city, or,
rather, to preserve a principle of form within the dynamics of urban structures—has
not been able to realize its models. And yet within urban structures the whole
contribution of the historical avant-garde lives on with a particular pregnancy.
The city as an advertising and self-advertising structure, as an ensemble of
channels of communication, becomes a sort of machine emitting incessant messages:

With this we are back again to our initial subject. It is not sufficient to create
languages of the plan artificially. It is, however, necessary to immerse the public

105 In a seminal essay Mario Tronti has written: "We have before us no longer the
great abstract syntheses of bourgeois thought, but the cult of the most vulgar
empiricism as the practices of capital; no longer the logical system of knowledge,
the scientific principles, but a mass without order of historical facts,
disconnected experiences, great deeds that no one ever conceived. Science and
ideology are again mixed and contradict one another; not, however, in
a systematization of ideas for eternity, but in the daily events of the
class struggle. All the functional apparatus of bourgeois ideology has been
consigned by capital into the hands of the officially recognized working
class movement. Capital no longer manages its own ideology; it has it managed
by the working class movement. This is why we say that today the criticism
of ideology is a task that concerns the working class point of view and that only
in a second instance regards capital" (M. Tronti, "Marx, forza lavoro,

Beyond the criticism of ideology there exists the "partisan" analysis of such a
reality, in which it is always necessary to recognize the hidden tendencies, the
real objectives of contradictory strategies, and the interests
connecting apparently independent economic areas. It seems to me that, for an
architectural culture that would accept such a terrain of operations, there exists
a task yet to be initiated. This task lies in putting the working class, as
organized in its parties and unions, face to face with the highest levels achieved
by the dynamics of capitalist development, and relating particular moments to
general designs.

It is even possible that there exist many specific tasks for architecture. What is
of greater interest to us here is to inquire how it is possible that up to now
Marxist-inspired culture has, with a care and insistence that it could better
employ elsewhere, guiltily denied or covered up a simple truth. This truth is, that
just as there cannot exist a class political economy, but only a class criticism of
political economy, so too there cannot be founded a class aesthetic, art, or
architecture, but only a class criticism of the aesthetic, of art, of architecture,
of the city itself. A coherent Marxist criticism of the ideology of architecture
and urbanism could not but demystify the contingent and historical realities,
devoid of objectivity and universality, that are hidden behind the unifying terms
of art, architecture, and city. It would likewise recognize the new levels attained
by capitalist development, with which recognitions the class movements should be
confronted.

was used to subjugate black subjects in much more insidious and elaborate ways than
de facto enslavement, the questions “Aren’t I a Woman?” and “Am I not your

According to Agamben’s influential theorization, modern sovereignty is haunted and
shadowed by the figure of the “homo sacer.”1 The homo sacer, a human being that
cannot be ritually offered, but whom one can kill without incurring the penalty of
murder, first appears in the city-states of Roman antiquity.

The homo sacer’s ban from the political community facilitates a double movement
that is contradictory but necessary: on the one hand, these subjects, by being
barred from the category of the human, are relegated to bare or naked life, being
both literally and symbolically stripped of all accoutrements associated with
the liberalist subject. Conversely, this bare life stands at the center of the
state’s exercise of its biopower, its force of legislating life and death, which,
in this framework, provides one of the central features of the modem nationstate.2

Nazi death camps provide the ultimate incarnation of this arrangement not as a
deviation but as the sine qua non of modem politics as sovereignty, one that
resonates in various current biopolitical institutions such as refugee and
detainment camps. The concentration camp and its progeny map a terrain in which the
central aim of politics is the manufacture of bare life, and, according to
Agamben, it is the politics in which we live.

“before the ‘body’ there is ‘flesh,’ that zero degree of social conceptualization

Outra característica da obra de Pedro Gomes Chaves, é o frontão triangular,


denunciado por Saint-Hilaire, que em vez de formar um todo inteiriço, é seccionado
em três partes, duas laterais gemeas em movimento ascensional, e uma central
volumosa, desgraciosa no seu pêso quadrangular, munida ao centro duma rosaça, que
duplica a rosaça do coro, esta encimando imediatamente o pórtico. Esse é

Ainda como santeiro, o Aleijadinho nada tem de primitivo. As suas estátuas e altos-

siquer por um individualismo pronunciado. Divergem muitas apenas por serem melhores
que o comum, sobretudo providas de mais caráter, e algumas por serem genialmente

concepção do conjunto, absolutamente contrária em estilo e liberdade, aos outros

estava invalidando outro artista brasileiro, o pintor Leandro Joaquim. O
aparecimento da doença divide em duas fases nítidas a obra do Aleijadinho. A fase
sã de Ouro Preto e São João d’El-Rei se caracteriza pela serenidade equilibrada, e
pela clareza magistral. Na fase de Congonhas do enfermo, desaparece
aquele sentimento renascente da fase sã, surge um sentimento muito mais gótico e

por isso. Na pedra foi um plástico intrínseco, na madeira um expressionista às
vezes feroz. Na pedra mais dura, mais eterna; êle caracteriza sempre e salienta a
sensação de nobreza e de eternidade, que a pedra tem. As suas figuras guardam um
imóvel profundo; não são os gestos que movimentam as pedras dêle, é a luz. Suas
pedras permanecem perfeitamente conceituais, nesse valor de eternidade
incorruptível que toma mesmo a pedra tão solitária, tão nobre no alheio da
natureza. Nas cenas dos púlpitos, nas fontes de sacristia, nos profetas de
Congonhas, as pedras edifi-cam num ritualismo extático, a que as redondezas lisas
dos volumes ainda acrescentam êsse paroxismo de volúpia, que está mesmo sempre
junto do extase e das calmas hieráticas.

Só duas vêzes o Aleijadinho escapou dêsse... classicismo da pedra. Uma delas foi no
São Francisco da fonte de sacristia. Nessa figura maravilhosa, a pedra não vem mais
tratada como um valor dinamogênico puramente plástico, mas antes o corpo está
concebido com uma intensidade, uma fôrça esplendida de vida.

; O Aleijadinho manifesta frequentemente a tendência pra deformar as figuras lhes


aumentando um pouquinho o tamanho da cabeça. Isso vem no São Jorge, nos profetas de
Congonhas, nos painéis dos púlpitos. Êsse é um processo comum aos escultores
góticos de França, que aparece por exemplo, nos patriarcas de São Trophime (Aries),
no portal norte da catedral de Laon, em alguns dos profetas e na série admirável
dos apóstolos, em Amiens, nos Gêmeos, de Chartres, nos profetas, apóstolos, no São
João Batista, da fachada principal de Reims, e inda é mais sistemático nas frisas e
capitéis historiados, como na Nôtre-Dame du Port em Clermont, e nas igrejas do Puy-
de-Dôme. Êsse processo, reinventado entre nós pelo Aleijadinho, dá para as figuras
uma força impressionante, meio fantasmal. Um

tempo imaginei, que no caso dos profetas da escadaria de Congonhas, isso derivasse
das necessidades da escultura arquitetural, a desproporção vindo de propósito pra
que se desse proporcionalização dentro da perspectiva. Que é proposital estou
certo. Mas si nos profetas de Congonhas ela se justifica pela necessidade
arquitetônica, o caso dos púlpitos historiados parece antes designar uma intenção
expressiva, pra tornar mais impressionantes as cenas descritas. Já o processo
desaparece nas fontes de sacristia, vem raro e com manifesta intenção
expressionistica nos Passos, pra tornar certas figuras (no geral os infiéis) mais
impressionantes, mais assombradas.

a poco; y cuando las voces, que acanaladas por la cueva salían, dejaron de oírse,
ya ellos tenían descolgadas las cien brazas de soga y fueron de parecer de volver a
subir a don Quijote, pues no le podían dar más cuerda. Con todo eso, se detuvieron
como media hora, al cabo del cual espacio volvieron a recoger la soga con mucha
facilidad y sin peso alguno, señal que les hizo imaginar que don Quijote se quedaba
dentro, y creyéndolo así Sancho, lloraba amargamente y tiraba con mucha priesa por
desengañarse; pero llegando, a su parecer, a poco más de las ochenta brazas,
sintieron peso, de que en extremo se alegraron. Finalmente, a las diez vieron
distintamente a don Quijote, a quien dio voces Sancho, diciéndole: —Sea vuestra

detail is disrupted, however, by externally imposed meanings and uses: (i) the

same time—in stunning contradiction—it is reduced to a thing, to being for the
captor; (3) in this distance jrom a subject position, the captured sexualities
provide a physical and biological expression of‘otherness’; (4) as a category
of‘otherness,’ the captive body translates into a potential for pornotroping and
embodies sheer physical powerlessness that slides into a more general

Pornotroping, then, names the becoming-flesh of the (black) body and forms a
primary component in the processes by which human beings are converted into bare
life. In the words of Saidiya Hartman, it marks “the means by which the wanton use
of and the violence directed towards the black body come to be identified as its
pleasure and dangers—that is, the expectations of slave property are ontologized as
the innate capacities and inner feelings of the enslaved, and moreover, the
ascription of excess and enjoyment to the African effaces the violence perpetrated

Not noting the pornotropic contours of Douglass’s clash with Covey obscures that it
represents a primal scene of the many ways that blackness, even the heroic
masculine version embodied by Douglass, remains antithetical to the
heteronormative. Thus, placing Douglass’s and Aunt Hester’s sexualized subjugation
side by side reveals the continuum of ungendering that is unleashed by racial
slavery’s violence/sexuality matrix (pomotroping), and which has come to define
sexuality in modernity.

For Douglass’s battle with Covey only appears as less libidinally charged than Mr.
Plummer’s whipping of Aunt Hester ifwe suppose: (a) that sexuality is determined
first and foremost by object choice and identity, that is, the master desires Aunt
Hester because he is a man and she is a woman, where Covey cannot possibly desire
Douglass given that both are biological men, and, (b) that libidinousness and
political violence are mutually exclusive, particularly when they interface with
normative masculinity.

Sankofa opens with images of an African American fashion model, Mona, on a photo
shoot at Elmina Castle on the Atlantic coast of Ghana, one of the places where
slaves were gathered before embarking on the Middle Passage, now a popular tourist
destination. As Mona writhes on the beach in a blond wig and a leopard-print
bathing suit (fig. 6.1), white tourists inspect the castle in the background of the
frame. Later, when Mona enters the dungeon beneath the castle, the voice of a tour
guide recedes and is replaced by the presence of chained slaves awaiting the Middle
Passage as she is teleported back in time (fig. 6.2). Then Mona becomes the slave
Shola despite her protests that she is not African but American. The remainder of
Sankofa depicts Shola’s experiences on the Lafayette plantation in Louisiana. When
she returns to Ghana at the end of the film after being a slave and having
been symbolically reprimanded and punished for her inauthentic blackness, the plot
produces a reformed Mona, who epitomizes all African Americans that have neglected
and/or forgotten the history of slavery and their ties to Africa.

In November 1935, leftist soldiers quartered in the Northeast and Rio mutinied in
hopes of inciting a popular uprising against the landholding elite. The central
government responded to the so-called Intentona Comunista with ferocity, quickly
putting down the rebellion. The state of siege and antileftist purges that followed

In early November 1937, Vargas's military advisors fabricated evidence of another


communist insurgency as a pretext for suspending the presidential elections and
instituting an authoritarian-nationalist regime. According to Vargas, the Estado
Novo (New State) announced on November 10 was supposed to restore to the Brazilian
people an organic political culture that had been corrupted by liberalism
during the First Republic and threatened by communism in the constitutional period.
This Estado Novo was built on the state’s real and implied use of violence against
any and all threats to the nation.

The infamous Queima das Bandeiras (Burning of the Flags) was not merely a
celebration of national unity, but rather an assault upon regional autonomy,
individual rights, and political liberties. When Vargas’s civilian, military, and
ecclesiastical allies watched the symbols of regional sovereignty go up in flames,
they lent their support to the state’s attack upon elements of Brazilian society
deemed threatening. Unbending regional elites, communists, liberal republicans,
Jews, and unacculturated immigrants would bear the brunt of a broader assault on
groups that did not conform to the regime’s vision of Brazilian society. The Estado
Novo anticipated a militarized technology of internal surveillance, policing,
repression, and countersubversion that took on horrid proportions during
the military regime of 1964-T985.

The paradox is that the same state that persecuted left-wing intellectuals as
threats to Brazilian culture, while patronizing conservative artists such as
Oswaldo Teixeira, exhibited a high tolerance for cultural nonconformists who
questioned the political and cultural establishment. Rather than censure the
iconoclastic vanguard collectively known as the movimento modernista (modernist
movement), the Vargas regime absorbed modernist artists and modernist projects into
federal cultural management. Modernist literary figures including Mário de Andrade,
Carlos Drummond de Andrade, and even novelist Graciliano Ramos (imprisoned during
the Estado Novo for his leftist political sympathies) gravitated toward the
federal l_ government.

With the cover of state support, these figures wielded considerable influence in
defining and administering Brazil’s cultural identities during the 1930s and 1940s.
Modernist architecture—disparaged by conservatives in Brazil and abroad as
communistic, ugly, and wholly unnational—made its biggest strides in Vargas-era
Brazil because of state sponsorship. Self-consciously "Brazilian” architecture,
exemplified in the neocolonial movement, was certainly tolerated by the Vargas
state .Local adaptations to the stolid federalist style favored by American New
Dealers, the neoimperial architecture favored by European totalitarian states, and
the indigenista public art commissioned by the postrevolutionary Mexican state
would also be found in state architecture in Brazil. Nevertheless, the Vargas
regime tolerated, and at times embraced, the importation of the principles of
modernist architecture promoted by the International Congress of Modern
Architecture and its charismatic leader Le Corbusier. The signature building of the
Estado Novo, celebrated within Brazil and abroad as the pinnacle of cultural change
in Brazil, was the Ministry of Education and Health, a modernist 16 Culture Wars in
Brazil skyscraper whose design was literally taken out of Le Corbusier’s
sketchbooks. At times, the official architecture of the Vargas regime seemed at
direct odds with the regime’s clearly stated war on communism, internationalism,
and other "threats” to the nation.

The most dramatic reappraisal of culture under Vargas came in 1979, when
sociologist Sérgio Micefi published a study of intellectuals and the elite (classes
dirigentes) in the 1920S-1940S.19 Creatively researched and theoretically
innovative, Micefi’s work introduced an epistemological framework capable of
describing the relationship between culture and the state. Micefi was especially
attuned to the state’s role as an employer that provides intellectuals with the
material and symbolic resources to engage in cultural (and political) creativity.
Pierre Bourdieu’s theories of the "field of cultural production” and economy of
symbolic exchange loomed

Enrique Dussel’s assimilation of the work of Emmanuel Levinas into his own
philosophy of Latín American liberation. I then, in the second section, juxtapose
Dussel’s Levinasianism with Doris Sommer’s ostensibly very different Levinasian
approach to literary studies, focusing upon her analysis of Mario Vargas Llosa’s El
hablador. While on the surface these two approaches to ethics—one by a liberation
theologian, the other by a literary scholar—seem to be quite distinct, if not
contradictory, I argüe that both tum on the identitary logic that has structured
Latinamericanism historically, and that has framed our discussions of both
subjectivity and alterity.

other. Levinas’s “other” (a philosophical concept, rather than an identitary


category) became imbued, in Dussel’s hands, with the ethnic-religious particularity
of Jewish victims of the Holocaust. Dussel then “converted” his versión of
Levinasian ethics to a Latín American framework: substituting “Europe” for “same”
and “Latín America” for “other” (and modifying the latter to inelude the subaltern,
the poor, the woman), Dussel read Levinas literally, imposing a narrowly
identitarian logic on a concept of otherness that the early Levinas (of Totality
and Infinity) conveyed through the anthropomorphic figure of the face of the other
but that, by Otherwise than Being, he characterized as an other-within-the-same.

While he concedes to Levinas his likening of politics to war, or war as the true
face of politics, in which self and other are always necessarily in a relation of
enmity, he calis for a second step, in which a new totality is constructed that
takes into account the demand of the other: “su crítica a la política como la
estrategia del estado de guerra es correcta, valiente, clarividente, pero esto no
evita las dificultades que tiene el gran pensador judío para reconstruir el
sentido positivo y crítico liberador de una nueva política” (“Lo político en
Levinas” 115). In effect, Dussel identifies two different political theologies: one
“good” and one “bad,” bridged by the ethical experience of the face of the other.
Here, ethics comes to interrupt “bad” politics (and therefore is not quite “first
philosophy”) and then replace it with a new, “good” totality, “una nueva totalidad
al servicio del Otro” (119).

The foundational cali of the other slips between a loosely Levinasian concept of
the demand and the well-known Althusserian scene of ideological interpellation, the
cali of the pólice toward whom we cannot help but turn. Sommer leaves the vast
divide between ethical responsibility to the other and interpellation by
an ideological State apparatus (ISA) largely unthought: the Levinas-Althusser
coupling stands as a flimsy rhetorical gesture upon which an argument about ethics
and politics (not-quite ethics and not-quite politics) will be based.

The idea of acknowledgment (a synonym, here, for what Sommer calis elsewhere
“respecf ’ for the other), linked to the equally problematic concept of recognition
(of the other as other), is limiting not only if we are to take this moment as the
“final word.” For even if we are to acknowledge difference as a “first step” toward
a second, one would assume, more ethical moment (which Sommer curiously
terms “negotiations,” an activity that would more ofien be associated with politics
in its crudest form), we are caught within the logic of identitarianism, in which
otherness is a mere reflection of the same, where identity and difference are two
sides of the same coin: a logic Sommer ostensibly seeks to abandon.

Literary criticism, for Sommer, thus becomes a practice of assessing ethical


correctness, which treads dangerously in the terrain of moralism. The task of the
work’s “ethical” reader, here, is to judge whether the narrator 10 or author has
properly recognized and responded to the other: the “ethical” reader can be judged
to have succeeded, or failed, in herself judging whether the work’s author
or narrator has indeed properly responded to the other. Caught in a double logic
of recognition-identification, the “ethical” critic ends up measured against an
other she has created for judging the response of the author or narrator.

“No attempt at justificatión will make us innocent again,” del Barco asserts: There
are no ‘causes’ or ‘ideáis’ that will let us off the hook. We have to take on that
essentially irredeemable act, the unprecedented responsibility of having
intentionally caused the death of a human being. Responsibility before our loved
ones, responsibility before other human beings, responsibility without meaning or
concept before what we could hesitatingly cali ‘the absolutely other’. But beyond
everything and everybody, including whatever God there might be, there is the Thou
shalt not kill. Faced with a society that kills millions of human beings in
wars, genocides, famines, illness and every kind of torture, at the base of each
of us can be heard weakly or imperiously the Thou shalt not kill. A 12 commandment
that cannot be founded or explained but that nevertheless is there, in me and in
everyone, as a presence without presence, as a forcé without forcé, as being
without being. Not a commandment that comes from outside, from some other place,
but which constitutes our inconceivable and unprecedented immanence. (del Barco

It is in Ritvo’s response, curiously, that we can begin to imagine some possible
avenues forward: “there is no ethical norm that can avoid the equivocations
of interpretation,” he writes (129). Are such equivocations obstacles or openings
to 14 altemative conceptualizations of ethics and, by extensión, politics? Tatián
suggests that phrases such as “Thou shalt not kill” (as well as “Bring them back
alive” or “Out with the lot of them”) should not be understood literally, social-
scientifically, but rather as literary expressions of the impossible.

For many this antagonism takes the form of an either/or: either politics or ethics
(either Marx or Freud, Badiou or Levinas, for instance) but not both. The
translation of this antagonism into the logic of choice comes with a price: it
happens at the expense of thinking what these two spheres might have in common,
either despite the antagonism or precisely because of it. By the same token, the
either/or has the effect of imputing to each ‘sphere’ a sense of stability and
self-consistency that may in fací blind us to what is really at stake in ethical
and political thinking. (280)

By identifying the antagonism present not only in the del Barco debate (he notes an
“obligation to take sides”), but also in Latín American studies and philosophy more
17 generally, Dove makes a persuasive case for a thinking of ethics and politics
that would neither oppose ñor confíate the two. He points out that while del Barco
appears to privilege an idea of ethics understood as responsibility for the other
over a politics understood as war, his rehearsal of the ethical scene—however
unexpectedly—ends up reproducing the sacrificial logic of his versión of politics:
“the foundational role played by ethics in del Barco’s critique of political
violence tums out to mirror [...] the sovereign status of the political in militant
reason” (289).7 Del Barco, Dove claims, merely replaces the Schmittian enemy with
the Levinasian figure of the absolutely other, in a rhetorical gesture that does
nothing to unsettle politics, ethics, or their relation.

Dove concludes by pointing to a blind spot in the del Barco debate that acquires a

Otherwise than Being, Dove reminds us that for Levinas, politics, or justice,
always arrives in the figure of the third, a figure that interrupts the face-to-
face encounter 18 between same and other. On this reading, ethics always already
implies the arrival of politics so that ethics cannot do without politics (and,
conversely, politics cannot do without ethics). Politics simultaneously
“establishes the urgency of ’ and “ruins” ethics in a kind of Derridean
undecidability: each serves as the condition of possibility and impossibility for
the other.8

Justice, for Derrida, is not equated with politics, as it is for Levinas, but
rather with ethics, with the undeconstructible: it is the principie (or beginning,
foundation) of deconstruction (“es el principio de su deconstrucción” [37]). “La
justicia es hospitalidad, una hospitalidad hacia el acontecimiento y hacia los
otros singulares” Biset writes, “el problema es cómo traducir esta ética de la
hospitalidad en una política de la hospitalidad” (39). Yet, according to Biset [?],
this is an unsettled, flawed translation: “Una política de la hospitalidad es la
traducción siempre imperfecta en leyes puntuales de una hospitalidad radical que
nunca se identifica con sus leyes” (39).

It is in these last words that we see a break with the Levinas of Dussel or Sommer:
politics, here, is not understood as opposed to ethics as war would be opposed to

This recast relation between quite estranged versions of ethics and politics will
be taken to an aporetic climax in Alberto Moreiras’s writing on infrapolitics. I
want to conclude in an infrapolitical key, not so much in order to privilege this
reading of the ethicopolitical relation, but because I believe that its negative
radicality sheds light—or perhaps shadows—upon the other readings we’ve just
finished. In “Infrapolitical Derrida,” Moreiras returns to Levinas via Derrida in
order to outline a theory of infrapolitics—or shadow politics, as a concept that
would stand in opposition to what he calis heliopolitics—by turning to Derrida’s
“Violence and Metaphysics,” the philosopher’s first published engagement with the
work of Levinas.

The nonethical opening to ethics: what could this be? In previous work, Moreiras
has already offered a loose definition of infrapolitics as a kind of mutual
suspensión of ethics and politics: “What if, before ethics, there were another
practice that makes of the double suspensión of the ethical by the political and of
the political by the ethical its very possibility? This practice, which finds its
expression in literature, but is not limited to literature, is infrapolitical
practice” (2010, 186). I do not have time, here, to dwell upon Moreiras’s use of
“before” (by “before ethics” does he mean “in the face of ethics”, or prior to,
perhaps a philosophy prior to ethics as first philosophy?) I want, instead,
to reflect upon Moreiras’s understanding of “suspensión.” In “Infrapolitical
Derrida” (written about a decade later), he will phrase this somewhat differently:
here, infrapolitics “is the double solicitation of the political by the ethical and
of the ethical by the political.” Suspensión, solicitation: are we to understand
that ethics is the condition of possibility for politics and vice-versa, or the
condition of impossibility? Or rather, might we read, in the slippage between
suspensión and solicitation, a negativity that promises, that opens?

Hágglund’s critique of Critchley centers upon two principal issues: violence and
temporality. He claims that Critchley is wrong to detect in Derrida’s work a
nonviolent ethical val ence, to establish a conceptual parallel between ethics in
Levinas and unconditional hospitality in Derrida: "The ethical is [...] a matter of
responding to alterity by making decisions and calculations, whereas the
unconditional is the non-ethical opening of ethics, namely, the exposure to an
undecidable other that makes it necessary to decide and calcúlate in the
first place” (Hagglund, “The Non-Ethical..301). This is of course a reference to
Derrida’s “The Violence of the Letter,” in which he defines “arche-writing” as “the
origin of morality as of immorality. The nonethical opening to ethics. A violent
opening” (140).

But I am not sure that Hágglund’s argument concerning temporality is right.


Temporality seems to belong to a cluster of concepts that Levinas revisits in
response to Derrida’s critique of his earlier work (in “Violence and Metaphysics”),
so that when we read Otherwise than Being we are already reading Levinas-after-
Derrida. Derrida’s principal claim is that while Levinas, in Totality andInfinity,
aims to move beyond being, ontology, he does so within the confines of metaphysical
language (“VM” 102). We thus find in Otherwise than Being that Levinas
has undertaken a radical experimentadon with language: we may recognize some of the
key concepts of metaphysics, but they are rearranged, unsettled, through a proto-
or para-deconstructive syntax. The concept of passivity would be one example: it
does not appear to counter “activity,”

Of course, “prior” may not, or may not only, signify temporal precedence. If we say
that “ethical responsibility is prior to everything else,” we can mean prior in
importance (the arrival of the other is a definitive moment for my ethical being;
of all the moments that constitute me as an ethical being, it is the arrival of the
other that is the most important, inasmuch as it alone is definitive: henee it has
priority in respect to its importance, its definitiveness); prior in time (the
other arrives and then I make a decisión); or prior in terms of logical structure
(the arrival of the other is the necessary condition for there to be an ethical
response: if the other arrives then necessarily my response to the arrival of the
other takes place in, even defines, the domain of the ethical).

Hagglund perhaps confuses these senses of antecedence or priority: an axiological

Let us pretend, for a moment, that Derrida is not speaking of the specters of
Hamlet’s father, or of the specter ofMarx, but the specter of Levinas: what
would it mean to inherit from Levinas’s ghost, to resist reaching consensus about
what this legacy is?

What I’ll be suggesting is that the notion of the precursor that each of
them, Borges and Derrida, addresses, and which is used by critics to place Derrida
and Borges in relation to one another, is tied to a range of undecidable questions
that, because they are undecidable, make different forms of exteriority intrinsic
to the work of Derrida and Borges. The demand that this undecidable, intrinsic
exteriority makes alerts Borges’, and Derrida’s, readers to the constitutive
unlikeness of an author to himself, of a tradition to itself, of a discipline to
itself. Corning to terms with this unlikeness is the task of Latín Americanism
today, still.

I won’t provide a comprehensive list of the studies comparing Borges and Derrida.
Instead, Fll briefly consider González Echevarría’s 1983 essay “BdeORridaGES
(BORGES Y DERRIDA)” and Rodríguez Monegal’s 1985 “Borges y Derrida: boticarios,”
not as representative studies, but rather as readings that symptomatize a certain
approach to literature, theory, and disciplinarity, as well as to the broader
question of identity and origins in Latín American and Latín Americanist thought. I
will then turn to Borges’s 1951 “Kafka y sus precursores” in order to “unread” or
“misread” Borges as a precursor to Derrida. I will argüe that in drawing upon the
example of Zeno’s paradox of motion, Borges postulates a theory of precursors as
retroactively determined: untimely, intempestivo, at once early and belated.

The argument is rather straightforward, but has a number of consequences I’d like
to outline here. First: we don’t need Derrida, because we have Borges. This might
lead to a second, implicit point: we don’t need philosophy, critical theory, etc.,
because we have literature. Third, deconstruction’s origins are Latin American
(echoing González Echevarría’s point that Derrida places Borges, a “marginal”
writer, into the “center” of European discourse). This reverses
the center/periphery, original/copy formal relation pervasive in literary criticism
at least until the Latin American avant-garde movements, but does little to
dismantle these oppositions (notice the reference to repetition, tautology,
sameness, familiarity: Derrida as mere repetition of Borges). Beyond identifying a
(Latín American) precursor of French (and later U.S.) deconstruction, beyond
positing a rehierarchization of intellectual geopolitics, the essay affirms the
same logic of identity, of origins and originality that we witness in González
Echevarría’s piece, and which is at the heart of the most commonly accepted
understandings of what a “precursor” is, what work it does.

What, then, of the rapport between Borges and Derrida? When asked in an interview
published in the blog “Outward from Nothingness” about Borges’s influence upon his
work, the French-Algerian philosopher responds in the following way: What would be
my spontaneous attitude to Borges? It’s a pensive one. I am reminded of an
interview with Borges, during a visit to Harvard in 1968. His father had a theory
of forgetting that lingered with him. “I think if I recall something,” his father
said, “for example, if today I look back on this morning, then I get an image of
what I saw this morning. But if tonight, I’m thinking back on this morning, then
what I’m really recalling is not the first image, but the first image in memory. So
that every time I recall something, I’m not recalling it really, I’m recalling the
last time I recalled it, I’m recalling my last memory of it. So that really, I have
no memories whatever, I have no images whatever, about my childhood, my youth.” My
relationship with Borges works precisely in this fashion; I have no relationship
with him whatever. The only relationship I have with him, his writings, is his
ghost - the traces of Borges.

Such an injunction teases out the ethico-political quality of reading: in our


encounter with that which is unreadable in the text, in the other, we are called
upon to venture a guess, to make a decisión (an interpretation) about something
fundamentally undecidable. Here, the ever-receding and ever proliferating precursor
resembles the ever-receding text: whether we understand the chasm between precursor
and heir, text and reader to be infinitely vast or infinitely small does not
seem to matter. Rather, we are faced with the dizzying possibility of infinite
choice (interpretation) within a given limit, an asymptote approaching a line it
will never reach. The necessary decisión that reading entails involves a kind of
violence: perhaps the very violence upon which disciplines and disciplinarity are
formed, and which is never too far from ethics, however counterintuitive it may
seem.

through Kafka’s work, we can retum to the poem and read that which we could not
have read at the moment of its composition, that which Browning himself could not
have anticipated. The uncanny bond between precursor and heir, then, comes about
not only in our reading of Kafka through Browning, but in our untimely, anachronic
retum to Browning/fom Kafka. “El hecho es que cada escritor crea sus precursores.
Su labor modifica nuestra concepción del pasado, como ha de modificar el futuro,”
Borges offers, contradicting the Borges of the opening paragraph, the Borges that
“premeditated,” the Borges that would proceed in chronological order, the
“introduction-Borges” that anticipated—and would be cancelled out by—“conclusion-
Borges.” (89-90)

It is this relation of unlikeness that Borges emphasizes in the final sentences of


the essay: “El primer Kafka de Betrachtung es menos precursor del Kafka de los
mitos sombríos y de las instituciones atroces que Browning o Lord Dunsany” (90).
Browning has more in common with late Kafka than early Kafka does: or, to put it
another way, Browning has more in common with Kafka than Kafka has with Kafka.

It is here that Borges gives the fatal twist to the significance—the meaning but
also the importance—of a precursor. The precursor, we can now see, is that aspect
of exteriority that alerts us to the constitutive unlikeness of an author to him-
or herself. Borges is not Borges, Kafka is not Kafka, Levinas is not Levinas,
Derrida is not Derrida, the precursor arrives, belatedly, to tell us. And it is
here that we can begin to imagine a rapport not only between Borges and Derrida,
but between literature and philosophy as two disciplines that, as they approach one
another, never arriving, expose the principie of non-identity at the heart of each
(literature is not literature, philosophy is not philosophy, and—we could add
— deconstruction is not deconstruction, Hispanism is not Hispanism).

we never know which Borges is writing, early Borges or late Borges, we never know
which Derrida we’re reading, Derrida haunted by Borges or Derrida haunted by not-
Derrida, “early” Derrida or “late” Derrida. Our search for precursors, then,
insofar as it symptomatizes a desire for identity, for likeness, for origins, is
doomed not to fail, but to succeed: there are always enough precursors, narrowly
understood, to go around, always enough fathers to kill anxiously, following yet
another Yale critic.

The discipline that we invent, our Hispanism, “signifies in the form of one-
penetrated-by-the-other” To read Hispanism, or Latín Americanism, through and from
Derrida is to embark upon new, absolutely non-coinciding inquisitions, new
interdisciplinary or mdisciplinary inquines that hold open the possibility of an
outside, or of an outside within: the unknown that structures every event of
reading.

medonha. Era Mianiquê-Teibê que vinha pra engolir o herói. Respirava com os dedos,
escutava pelo umbigo e tinha os olhos no lugar das mamicas. A boca era duas bocas e
estavam escondidas na dobra interior dos dedos dos pés. Macunaíma acordou com o
cheiro da assombração e jogou no viado Flamengo fora. Então Mianiquê-Teibê comeu a
varina e se foi. No outro dia Macunaíma não achou mais graça na capital da
República. Trocou a pedra Vató por um retrato no jornal e voltou pra taba do
igarapé Tietê.

Nevertheless, such music is also affected by the change in that the entertainment,
the pleasure, the enjoyment it promises, is given only to be simultaneously denied.
In one of his essays, Aldous Huxley has raised the question of who, in a place of
amusement, is really being amused.1 With the same justice, it can be asked whom
music for entertainment still entertains. Rather, it seems to complement the
reduction of people to silence, the dying out of speech as expression, the
inability to communicate at all. It inhabits the pockets of silence that develop
between people molded by anxiety, work and undemanding docility.

The delight in the moment and the gay facade becomes an excuse for absolving the
listener from the thought of the whole, whose claim is comprised in proper
listening. The listener is converted, along his line of least resistance, into the
acquiescent purchaser. No longer do the partial moments serve as a critique of that

At its most passionate, musical fetishism takes possession of the public val-uation
of singing voices. Their sensuous magic is traditional as is the close relation
between success and the person endowed with "material." But:; today it is forgotten
that it is material. For musical vulgar materialists, it : is synonymous to have a
voice and to be a singer. In earlier epochs, technical virtuosity, at least, was
demanded of singing stars, the castrati and x prima donnas. Today, the material as
such, destitute of any function, is v celebrated. One need not even ask about
capacity for musical performance. Even mechanical control of the instrument is no
longer really expected. To legitimate the fame of its owner, a voice need only be
especially voluminous or especially high.

If the moments of sensual pleasure in the idea, the voice, the instrument are made
into fetishes and torn away from any functions which could give them meaning, they
meet a response equally isolated, equally far from the meaning of the whole, and
equally determined by success in the blind and irrational emotions which form the
relationship to music into which those with no relationship enter. But these are
the same relations as exist between the consumers of hit songs and the hit songs.
Their only relation is to the completely alien, and the alien, as if cut off from
the consciousness of the masses by a dense screen, is what seeks to speak for the
silent. Where they react at all, it no longer makes any difference whether it is to
Beethoven's Seventh Symphony or to a bikini.

Marx defines the fetish-character of the commodity as the veneration of the thing
made by oneself which, as exchange-value, simultaneously alienates itself
from producer to consumer—"human beings." "A commodity is therefore a mysterious
thing, simply because in it the social character of men's labor appears to them as
an objective character stamped upon the product of that labor; because the relation
of the producers to the sum total of their own labor is presented to them as a
social relation, existing not between themselves, but between the products of their
labor."6

The appearance of immediacy takes possession of the mediated, exchange-


value itself. If the commodity in general combines exchange-value and use- ; value,
then the pure use-value, whose illusion the cultural goods must preserve in
completely capitalist society, must be replaced by pure exchange-value, which
precisely in its capacity as exchange-value deceptively takes over the function of
use-value. The specific fetish character of music lies in this quid pro quo. The
feelings which go to the exchange-value create the appearance of immediacy at the
same time as the absence of a relation to the object belies it. It has its basis in
the abstract character of exchange-value. Every "psychological" aspect, every
ersatz satisfaction, depends on such social substitution.

The appearance of exchange-value in commodities has taken on a specific cohesive


function. The woman who has money with which to buy is intoxicated by the act of
buying. In American conventional speech, having a good time* means being present at
the enjoyment of others, which in its turn has as its only content being
present. The auto religion makes all men brothers in the sacramental moment
with the words: "That is a Rolls Royce," and in moments of intimacy, women attach
greater importance to the hairdressers and cosmeticians than to the situation for
the sake of which the hairdressers and cosmeticians are employed. The relation to
the irrelevant dutifully manifests its social essence. The couple out driving who
spend their time identifying every passing car and being happy if they recognize
the trademarks speeding by, the girl whose satisfaction consists solely in the fact
that she and her boyfriend "look good," the expertise of the jazz enthusiast who
legitimizes himself by having knowledge about what is in any case inescapable: all
this operates according to the same command. Before the theological caprices
of commodities, the consumers become temple slaves. Those who sacrifice themselves
nowhere else can do so here, and here they are fully betrayed.

The works which are the basis of the fetishization and become cultural goods
experience constitutional changes as a result. They become vulgarized. Irrelevant
consumption destroys them. Not merely do the few things played again and again wear
out, like the Sistine Madonna in the bedroom, but reification affects their
internal structure. They are transformed into a conglomeration of irruptions which
are impressed on the listeners by climax and repetition, while the organization of
the whole makes no impression whatsoever. The memorability of disconnected parts,
thanks to climaxes and repetitions, has a precursor in great music itself, in the
technique of late romantic compositions, especially those of Wagner. The

As águas são magníficas, os ares tão amenos quanto os de Aquisgrana ou de Anverres,

deste povo. Ora sabereis que a sua riqueza de expressão intelectual é tão
prodigiosa, que falam numa língua e escrevem noutra. Assim chegado a estas plagas
hospitalares, nos demos ao trabalho de bem nos inteirarmos da etnologia da terra, e
dentre muita surpresa e assombro que se nos deparou, por certo não foi das menores
tal originalidade lingüística. Nas conversas utilizam-se os paulistanos dum
linguajar bárbaro e multifário, crasso de feição e impuro na vernaculidade, mas que
não deixa de ter o seu sabor e força nas apóstrofes, e também nas vozes do brincar.
Destas e daquelas nos inteiràmos, solícito; e nos será grata empresa vô-las
ensinarmos aí chegado. Mas si de tal desprezível língua se utilizam na conversação
os naturais desta terra, logo que tomam da pena, se despojam de tanta asperidade, e
surge o Homem Latino, de Lineu, exprimindo-se numa outra linguagem, mui próxima da
vergiliana, no dizer dum panegirista, meigo idioma, que, com imperecível galhardia,
se intitula: língua de Camões! De tal originalidade e riqueza vos há-de ser grato

Imaginou esgarafunchando na memória bem, mas nunca não ouvira mesmo o nome daquele

buracos deste mundo e ficou com vergonha da cunhatã. “Orifício” era palavra que a

desculpou: – Tetápe dzónanei pemo... Não deixaram nem que ele acabasse, todos
perguntando o que significava aquela frase. Macunaíma respondeu: – Sei não. Aprendi
essas palavras quando era pequeno lá em casa. E todos se queimaram muito. Macunaíma
fastou disfarçado falando: – Calma, gente! Tetápe hêhê! Não falei que tem rasto de

Então o povo que já estava todo zangado virou contra Maanape e contra Jiguê. Já
todos, e eram muitos! estavam com vontade de armar uma briga. Então um estudante
subiu na capota dum auto e fez discurso contra Maanape e contra Jiguê. O povo
estava ficando zangadíssimo. – Meus senhores, a vida dum grande centro urbano como
São Paulo já obriga a uma intensidade tal de trabalho que não permite-se mais
dentro da magnífica entrosagem do seu progresso siquer a passagem momentânea de
seres inócuos. Ergamo-nos todos una voce contra os miasmas deletérios que
conspurcam o nosso organismo social e já que o Governo cerra os olhos e delapida os
cofres da Nação, sejamos nós mesmos os justiçadores... – Lincha! lincha! que o povo
principiou gritando. – Que lincha nada! exclamou Macunaíma tomando as dores pelos
manos. E todos se viraram contra ele outra vez. E agora já estavam zangadíssimos. O
estudante continuava pra si: – ...e quando o trabalho honesto do povo é perturbado
por um desconhecido... – O quê! quem que é desconhecido! berrou Macunaíma
desesperado com a ofensa. – Você!

ódio de tanta boniteza e chimpou uma bruta duma bolacha nas fuças do grilo. O grilo
berrou, e enquanto falava uma frase em língua estrangeira agarrou o herói pelo

A caapora possuía duas filhas e a mais nova que não era nada habilidosa e só sabia

Tolstoi, Balzac, Flaubert y me ganaba la vida como periodista, y la continué en
Lima, en las nieves de Pullman (Washington), en una callecita en forma de medialuna
del Valle del Canguro, en Londres -entre clases de literatura en el Queen Mary’s
College y el Kings College-, y la terminé en Puerto Rico, en 1969, luego de
rehacerla varias veces. Ninguna otra novela me ha dado tanto trabajo; por eso, si

polvorientas viejecillas pútridas, en zapatillas, con varices. Una figurilla corre
entre los cubos, sus alaridos estremecen la aceitosa madrugada y enfurecen a las

Parecía mentira que el niño Santiago tomara ya cerveza, y Ambrosio ríe, los recios
dientes amarillo verdosos al aire: el tiempo volaba, caracho. Suben la escalera,
entre los corralones de la primera cuadra de Alfonso Ugarte hay un garaje blanco de
la Ford, y en la bocacalle de la izquierda asoman, despintados por la grisura
inexorable, los depósitos del Ferrocarril Central. Un camión cargado de cajones
oculta la puerta de "La Catedral". Adentro, bajo el techo de calamina, se apiña en
bancas y mesas toscas una rumorosa muchedumbre voraz. Dos chinos en mangas de
camisa vigilan desde el mostrador las caras cobrizas, las angulosas facciones que
mastican y beben, y un serranito extraviado en un rotoso mandil distribuye sopas
humeantes, botellas, fuentes de arroz. Mucho cariño, muchos besos, mucho amor,
truena una radiola multicolor, y al fondo, detrás del humo, el ruido, el sólido
olor a viandas y licor y los danzantes enjambres de moscas, hay una pared
agujereada —piedras, chozas, un hilo de río, el cielo plomizo, y una mujer ancha,
bañada en sudor, manipula ollas y sartenes cercada por el chisporroteo de un fogón.
Hay una mesa vacía junto a la radiola, entre la constelación de cicatrices del
tablero se distingue un corazón flechado, un nombre de mujer: Saturnina.

Ambrosio habla, las bolsas de sus párpados son azuladas, las ventanillas de su
nariz laten como si hubiera corrido, como si se ahogara, y después de cada trago
escupe, mira nostálgico las moscas, escucha, sonríe o se entristece o confunde y
sus ojos, a ratos, parecen enfurecerse o asustarse o irse; a ratos tiene accesos de
tos. Hay canas entre sus pelos crespos, lleva sobre el overol un saco que debió ser
también azul y tener botones, y una camisa de cuello alto que se enrosca en su
garganta como una cuerda. Santiago ve sus zapatones enormes: enfangados,
retorcidos, jodidos por el tiempo. Su voz le llega titubeante, temerosa, se pierde,
cautelosa, implorante, vuelve, respetuosa o ansiosa o compungida, siempre vencida:
no treinta, cuarenta, cien más. No sólo se había desmoronado, envejecido,
embrutecido; a lo mejor andaba tísico también.

El era mejor que tú, Zavalita. Había pagado más, se había jodido más. Piensa: pobre
papá. El taxi disminuye la velocidad y él abre los ojos: la Diagonal está ahí,
atrapada en los cristales delanteros del taxi, oblicua, plateada, hirviendo de
autos, sus avisos luminosos titilando ya. La neblina blanquea los árboles del
Parque, las torres de la iglesia se desvanecen en la grisura, las copas de los
ficus oscilan: pare aquí. Paga la carrera y el Batuque comienza a ladrar. Lo
suelta, lo ve cruzar la entrada de la Quinta como un bólido. Oye adentro los
ladridos, se acomoda el saco, la corbata, oye el grito de Ana, imagina su cara.
Entra al patio, las casitas de duende tienen iluminadas las ventanas, la silueta de
Ana que abraza al Batuque y viene hacia él, por qué te demoraste tanto amor, qué
nerviosa había estado, qué asustada amor. —Entremos, este animal va a enloquecer a
toda la Quinta —y la besa apenas —. Calla, Batuque.

—Lo peor es que me gasté toda la plata, amor. No sé cómo vamos a llegar hasta el
lunes. —Bah, qué importa. Menos mal que el chino de San Martín me fía siempre,
menos mal que es el chino más bueno que hay. —Lo peor es que nos quedamos sin cine.
¿Daban algo bueno, hoy? —Una con Marlon Brando, en el Colina —y la voz de Ana,
lejanísima, llega como a través del agua —. Una policial de ésas que te gustan,
amor. Si quieres, me prestó plata de la alemana. Está contenta, Zavalita, te
perdona todo porque le trajiste al Batuque. Piensa: en este momento es feliz.

Ahí estaban ahora, recobradas, la playa de Miraflores, las olas de la Herradura, la


bahía de Ancón, y las imágenes eran tan reales, las plateas del Leuro, el
Montecarlo y el Colina, tan bestiales, salones donde él y la Teté bailaban boleros,
como las de una película en tecnicolor. ¿Estás contento?, dijo el senador, y él

dándole la contra en todo. —Sólo le doy la contra cuando se pone a defender a Odría

militares —dijo el Chispas —. Y qué mierda te ha hecho Odría a ti. —Subieron al
gobierno a la fuerza —dijo Santiago —. Odría ha metido presa a un montón de gente.
—Sólo a los apristas y a los comunistas —dijo el Chispas —. Ha sido buenísimo con

En los ojos de Popeye había brotado una lucecita, ¿te acuerdas cuando fuimos a
espiarla a la Amalia en Ancón, flaco? Desde la azotea se veía el baño de la
servidumbre, en la claraboya dos caras juntas e inmóviles y abajo una silueta
esfumada, una ropa de baño negra, qué riquita la cholita, flaco.

La había encontrado despierta, súbeme unas Coca-colas, y se rieron: chist, ahí


venía, ¿sería ella? Sí, ahí estaba en el umbral, sorprendida, examinándolos con
desconfianza. Se había replegado contra la puerta, una chompa rosada y una blusa
sin botones, no decía nada. Era Amalia y no era, pensó Popeye, qué iba a ser la de
mandil azul que circulaba en la casa del flaco con bandejas o plumeros en las
manos. Tenía los cabellos greñudos ahora, buenas tardes niño, unos zapatones de
hombre y se la notaba asustada: hola, Amalia. —Mi mamá me contó que te habías ido
de la casa —dijo Santiago —. Qué pena que te vayas.

Amalia puso la charola con los vasos y las Coca-colas frente al retrato del Chispas
y quedó de pie junto a la cómoda, la cara intrigada. Llevaba el vestido blanco y
los zapatos sin taco de su uniforme, pero no el mandil ni la toca. ¿Por qué se
quedaba ahí parada?, ven siéntate, había sitio. Cómo se iba a sentar, y lanzó una
risita, a la señora no le gustaba que entrara al cuarto de los niños, ¿no sabía
acaso? Sonsa, mi mamá no está, la voz de Santiago se puso tensa de repente, ni él
ni Popeye la iban a acusar, siéntate sonsa. Amalia se volvió a reír, decía eso
ahora pero a la primera que se enojara la acusaría y la señora la resongaría.

descubrimos tu secreto, Amalia. —Tienes, tienes —Popeye se dejó caer junto a ella,
la cogió del otro brazo —. Cómo te ríes, bandida. Amalia se retorcía de risa y
sacudía los brazos pero ellos no la soltaban, qué iba a tener, niño, no tenía, les
daba codazos para apartarlos, Santiago la abrazaba por la cintura, Popeye le puso
una mano en la rodilla y Amalia un manazo: eso sí que no, niño, nada de tocarla.
Pero Popeye volvió a la carga: bandida, bandida. A lo mejor hasta sabía bailar y
les había mentido que no, a ver confiesa: bueno, niño, se los aceptaba. Cogió los
billetes que se arrugaron entre sus dedos, para que viera que no se hacía de rogar
nomás, y los guardó en el bolsillo de la chompa.

—Como amigos que son, pues —y Amalia abrió los ojos, como recordando —. Pero pasen,
aunque sea un momentito. Disculparán la pobreza. No les dio tiempo a negarse, entró
a la casa corriendo y ellos la siguieron. Lamparones y tiznes, unas sillas,
estampas, dos camas deshechas. No podían quedarse mucho, Amalia, tenían un
compromiso. Ella asintió, frotaba con su falda la mesa del centro de la habitación,
un momento nada más. Una chispa maliciosa brotó en sus ojos, ¿la esperarían un
ratito conversando?, iba a comprar algo para ofrecerles, ya volvía. Santiago y
Popeye se miraron asustados, encantados, era otra persona, flaco, se había puesto
loquita. Sus carcajadas resonaban en todo el cuarto, tenía la cara sudada y
lágrimas en los ojos, sus disfuerzos contagiaban a la cama un escalofrío
chirriante. Ahora ella también acompañaba la música dando palmadas: sí, sí sabía.

Amalia se había puesto de pie y evolucionaba por el cuarto, sola, dándose


encontrones con los muebles, torpe y pesada, canturreando a media voz, girando a
ciegas, hasta que Santiago la abrazó. Popeye apoyó la cabeza en la almohada, estiró
la mano y apagó la lamparilla, oscuridad, luego el resplandor del farol de la calle
iluminó ralamente las dos siluetas. Popeye las veía flotar en círculo, oía la voz
chillona de Amalia y se metió la mano al bolsillo, veía que sí sabía bailar, niño?

las cañitas, arrastró una silla y se sentó frente a ellos; se había peinado, se
había puesto una cinta y abotonado la blusa y la chompa y los miraba beber. Ella no
tomaba nada. —No has debido gastar así tu plata, sonsa —dijo Popeye. —No es mía, es

había apagado la luz el otro niño, aleteando apenas, que la prendieran o se iba,
quejándose sin fuerzas, como si un invencible sueño o aburrimiento la apagara, no

Hasta entonces yo había asistido cuatro veces al taller y nunca había ocurrido
nada, lo cual es un decir, porque bien mirado siempre ocurrían cosas: leíamos
poemas y Álamo, según estuviera de humor, los alababa o los pulverizaba; uno leía,
Álamo criticaba, otro leía, Álamo criticaba, otro más volvía a leer, Álamo
criticaba. A veces Álamo se aburría y nos pedía a nosotros (los que en ese momento
no leíamos) que criticáramos también, y entonces nosotros criticábamos y Álamo se
ponía a leer el periódico. El método era el idóneo para que nadie fuera amigo de
nadie o para que las amistades se cimentaran en la enfermedad y el rencor.

Por otra parte no puedo decir que Álamo fuera un buen crítico, aunque 5 siempre
hablaba de la crítica. Ahora creo que hablaba por hablar. Sabía lo que era una
perífrasis, no muy bien, pero lo sabia. No sabía, sin embargo, lo que era una
pentapodia (que, como todo el mundo sabe, en la métrica clásica es un sistema de
cinco pies), tampoco sabía lo que era un nicárqueo (que es un verso parecido al
falecio), ni lo que era un tetrástico (que es una estrofa de cuatro versos). ¿Que
cómo sé que no lo sabía? Porque cometí el error, el primer día de taller, de
preguntárselo. No sé en qué estaría pensando. El único poeta mexicano que sabe de
memoria estas cosas es Octavio Paz (nuestro gran enemigo), el resto no tiene ni
idea, al menos eso fue lo que me dijo Ulises Lima minutos después de que yo me
sumara y fuera amistosamente aceptado en las filas del realismo visceral.

Otro, en mi lugar, no hubiera vuelto a poner los pies en el taller, pero pese a mis
infaustos recuerdos (o a la ausencia de recuerdos, para el caso tan infausta o más
que la retención mnemotécnica de éstos) a la semana siguiente estaba allí, puntual
como siempre. Creo que fue el destino el que me hizo volver. Era mi quinta sesión
en el taller de Álamo (pero bien pudo ser la octava o la novena, últimamente he
notado que el tiempo se pliega o se estira a su arbitrio) y la tensión, la
corriente alterna de la tragedia se mascaba en el aire sin que nadie acertara a
explicar a qué era debido.

Por un momento pensé que tal vez había ocurrido algo en la universidad, una
balacera en el campus de la que yo no me hubiera enterado, una huelga sorpresa, el
asesinato del decano de la facultad, el secuestro de algún profesor de Filosofía o
algo por el estilo. Pero nada de esto había sucedido y la verdad era que nadie
tenía motivos para estar nervioso. Al menos, objetivamente nadie tenía motivos.
Pero la poesía (la verdadera poesía) es así: se deja presentir, se anuncia en el
aire, como los terremotos que según dicen presienten algunos animales especialmente
aptos para tal propósito. (Estos animales son las serpientes, los gusanos, las
ratas y algunos pájaros.) Lo que sucedió a continuación fue atropellado pero dotado
de algo que a riesgo de ser cursi me atrevería a llamar maravilloso. Llegaron dos
poetas real visceralistas y Álamo, a regañadientes, nos los presentó aunque sólo a
uno de ellos conocía personalmente, al otro lo conocía de oídas o le sonaba su
nombre o alguien le había hablado de él, pero igual nos lo presentó.

La discusión no acabó, contra lo que yo esperaba, en una madriza general. Tengo que
reconocer que me hubiera encantado. Y aunque uno de los miembros del taller le
prometió a Ulises Lima que algún día le iba a romper la cara, al final no pasó
nada, quiero decir nada violento, aunque yo reaccioné a la amenaza (que, repito, no
iba dirigida contra mí) asegurándole al amenazador que me tenía a su entera
disposición en cualquier rincón del campus, en el día y a la hora que quisiera.

Conde de Lautréamont, algo en las Poesías relacionado con la tal Tinajero, y


después Lima hizo una aseveración misteriosa. Según él, los actuales real
visceralistas caminaban hacia atrás. ¿Cómo hacia atrás?, pregunté. —De espaldas,
mirando un punto pero alejándonos de él, en línea recta hacia lo desconocido. Dije
que me parecía perfecto caminar de esa manera, aunque en realidad no entendí nada.
Bien pensado, es la peor forma de caminar.

La letra de la canción hablaba de los pueblos perdidos del norte y de los ojos de
una mujer. Antes de ponerme a vomitar en la calle les pregunté si ésos eran los
ojos de Cesárea Tinajero. Belano y Lima me miraron y dijeron que sin duda yo ya era
un real visceralista y que juntos íbamos a cambiar la poesía latinoamericana. A las
seis de la mañana tomé otro pesero, esta vez solo, que me trajo hasta la colonia

Ésta había experimentado cambios sustanciales. Las dos mujeres en la falda del
volcán, que recordaba en una actitud hierática, al menos seria, ahora se daban
pellizcos en los brazos; una de ellas reía o simulaba reír; la otra lloraba o
simulaba llorar; en los riachuelos de lava (pues seguían siendo de color rojo o
bermejo) flotaban envases de jabón para lavadoras, muñecas calvas y cestas de
mimbre repletas de ratas; los vestidos de las mujeres estaban rotos o mostraban
parcheaduras; en el cielo (o al menos en la parte superior de la acuarela) se
gestaba una tormenta; en la parte inferior María había transcrito el parte
meteorológico del día para el DF. El cuadro era horroroso.

vista perdida en los intrincados dibujos de la enredadera. —¿Cómo se llama,
entonces? —Alfredo Martínez o algo así. Ya lo he olvidado. Pero cuando lo conocí no
se llamaba Ulises Lima. Fue Laura Damián la que le puso el nombre. —Carajo, qué
noticia. —Todos decían que estaba enamorado de Laura. Pero yo creo que nunca se
acostaron. Me parece a mí que Laura murió virgen.

asunto, hicieron un reventón de mamadas y había una ruca de por ahí que las ganaba
todas. No 47 había ninguna pulga que pudiera tragarse enteras las vergas que la
ruca aquella se tragaba. Entonces Alberto se levantó de la mesa en donde estábamos
y dijo espérenme un momentito, que voy a solucionar un negocio. Los que estaban en
nuestra mesa le dijeron ya rugiste, Alberto, se ve que lo conocían. Yo mentalmente
supe que la pobre ruca ya estaba derrotada. Alberto se plantó en medio de la pista,
se sacó el vergajo, lo puso en acción con un par de golpecitos y se lo metió en la
boca a la campeona. Ésta era dura de verdad y le hizo el esfuerzo. Poquito a poco
empezó a tragarse la verga entre las exclamaciones de asombro. Entonces Alberto la
cogió de las orejas y se la metió entera. Para luego es tarde, dijo y todos se
rieron. Hasta yo me reí aunque la verdad es que también sentía algo de vergüenza y
algo de celos. En los primeros segundos la ruca pareció que aguantaba, pero luego
se atragantó y empezó a ahogarse... —Carajo, qué bestia es tu Alberto —dije. —Pero
sigue contando, ¿qué pasó? —dijo María. —Pues nada. La ruca empezó a golpear a
Alberto, a intentar separarse de él, y Alberto empezó a reírse y a decirle so,
yegua, so, yegua, como si estuviera montando una yegua brava, ¿me entiendes, no? —
Claro, como si estuviera en un rodeo —dije. —A mí eso no me gustó nada y le grité
déjala, Alberto, que la vas a desgraciar. Pero yo creo que él ni me oyó. Mientras
tanto la cara de la ruca cada vez estaba más congestionada, roja, con los ojos muy
abiertos (cuando hacía los guagüis los cerraba) y empujaba a Alberto por las
ingles, lo tironeaba desde los bolsillos hasta el cinturón, digamos. Inútilmente,
claro, porque a cada tirón que ella daba para separarse Alberto le daba otro de las
orejas para impedírselo. Y él llevaba todas las de ganar, eso se veía enseguida. —
¿Y por qué no le mordió el aparato? —dijo María. —Porque era un reventón de amigos.
Si lo llega a hacer, Alberto la hubiera matado.

desapareció, pero la puerta sólo quedó entornada. Al cabo de un rato volvió a
aparecer y cruzó el jardín arremangándose la camisa y con una gran sonrisa en la
cara. La verdad es que lo encontré mejor. Me franqueó la entrada, me dijo tú eres
García Madero, ¿verdad?, y me dio la mano. Yo le dije cómo está usted, señor, y él
me dijo llámame Quim, nada de señor, en esta casa esos formalismos no se estilan.
Al principio no entendí cómo quería que lo llamara y dije ¿Kim? (he leído a Rudyard
Kipling), pero él dijo no, Quim, diminutivo de Joaquín en catalán. —Pues órale,

veces es necesario empaparse de realidad, ¿no? Creo que eso lo dijo Alfonso Reyes,
puede ser, no importa. Pero a veces María se excede, ¿no? Y yo no la critico por
eso, que se empape de realidad, pero que se empape, no que se exponga, ¿verdad?
Porque si uno se empapa demasiado se expone a convertirse en víctima, no sé si me
sigues. —Te sigo —dije. —En víctima de la realidad, sobre todo si se tienen amigos
o amigas, cómo te diría, magnéticos, ¿no? Gente que inocentemente atrae las
desgracias o que atrae a los verdugos, ¿me sigues, verdad, García Madero?

Al contrario que María, el rostro de Angélica es muy blanco, pero con una tonalidad
que no sabría decir si olivácea o rosada, creo que olivácea, con los pómulos
salientes, la frente amplia y los labios más abultados que los de su hermana. Al
verla o mejor dicho al ver que ella me miraba (las otras veces que estuve allí de
hecho no me miró), sentí que una mano de dedos largos y finos, pero al mismo tiempo
muy fuerte, se cerraba sobre mi corazón, imagen que seguramente no gustará a Lima y
a Belano, pero que se ajusta como un guante a lo que sentí entonces.

demás son una pandilla de analfabetos funcionales. Me parece que lo único que hacen
en las librerías es robar libros. —Pero después los leerán, ¿no? —concluí un poco
amoscado. —No, te equivocas, después se los regalan a Ulises y a Belano. Éstos los
leen, se los cuentan y ellos van por ahí presumiendo que han leído a Queneau, por
ejemplo, cuando la verdad es que se han limitado a robar un libro de Queneau, no a
leerlo. —¿Belano es chileno? —dije tratando de desviar la conversación hacia otro

de Belano. Y luego me puse a mirar a Angélica, pero sin que se me notara mucho,
mayormente cuando ella no me miraba a mí, la cabeza metida dentro de un libro de
poesía (Les Lieux de la douleur, de Eugéne Savitzkaya), del que sólo se asomaba
para terciar en la conversación que ahora sostenían María y San Epifanio sobre el
arte erótico. Y luego volví a pensar en la posibilidad de que las fotos las hubiera
tomado Ulises 58 Lima y recordé también lo que oí en el café Quito, que Lima
traficaba con drogas, y si traficaba con drogas, y eso casi era un hecho, pensé,
también podía traficar con otras cosas.

Una serpiente (que tal vez sonreía, pero que más probablemente se retorcía en un
espasmo de dolor) se mordía la cola con expresión golosa y sufriente, los ojos
clavados como alfileres en el hipotético lector. —Pero si aún nadie sabe cómo se va
a llamar la revista —dije. —Es igual. La serpiente es mexicana y además simboliza
la circularidad. ¿Tú has leído a Nietzsche, García Madero? —dijo de pronto

—Un marica menorcísimo. Su única virtud es la de ser si no el único, el primer


poeta mexicano que publicó un libro en Tokio, Rimas japonesas, 1909. Era
diplomático, por supuesto. El panorama poético, después de todo, era básicamente la
lucha (subterránea), el resultado de la pugna entre poetas maricones y poetas
maricas 85 por hacerse con la palabra. Los mariquitas, según San Epifanio, eran
poetas maricones en su sangre que por debilidad o comodidad convivían y acataban —
aunque no siempre— los parámetros estéticos y vitales de los maricas.

Hice el amor llevando la cuenta. Rosario estuvo fantástica, pero por mor al éxito
del experimento preferí no advertírselo. Se vino quince veces. Las primeras le
tenía que tapar la boca para que no despertara a los vecinos. Las últimas temí que
le fuera a dar un ataque al corazón. A veces parecía desmayarse entre mis brazos y

Creo que hemos simpatizado. La librería, por supuesto, está la mayor parte del
tiempo desierta y a don Crispín le gusta leer pero no desdeña pasarse horas enteras
hablando de lo que sea. También yo necesito a veces hablar. Le confesé que visitaba
sistemáticamente las librerías del DF buscando a dos amigos desaparecidos, que
robaba libros porque no tenía dinero (don Crispín de inmediato me regaló un
ejemplar de Eurípides editado por Porrúa y traducido por el padre Garibay), que
admiraba a Alfonso Reyes porque no sólo sabía griego y latín sino también francés,
inglés y alemán, que ya no iba a la universidad. Todo lo que le cuento le hace
gracia, menos que no estudie, pues tener una carrera es necesario. La poesía le
produce desconfianza. Al aclararle que yo era poeta, dijo que desconfianza no era
en realidad la palabra exacta y que él había conocido a algunos. Quiso leer mis
poemas. Cuando se los traje noté que se quedaba un poco perplejo, pero acabada la
lectura no dijo nada. Sólo me preguntó por qué utilizaba tantas palabras
malsonantes. ¿Qué quiere decir, don Crispín?, pregunté. Blasfemias, groserías,
tacos, insultos. Ah, eso, le dije, bueno, debe ser por mi carácter. Al irme esa
tarde don Crispín me regaló Ocnos, de Cernuda, y me rogó que estudiara a aquel
poeta, que también, por cierto, tenía un carácter de los mil demonios.

seamos, mejor. —No, el número es una ilusión. García Madero. Para el caso que nos

A don Crispín Zamora no le gusta hablar de la guerra de España. Le pregunté,


entonces, la razón por la que bautizó su librería con un nombre que evoca hechos
marciales. Confesó que no se lo puso él, sino el propietario anterior, un coronel
de la República que se cubrió de gloria en dicha batalla. En las palabras de don
Crispín descubro un deje de ironía. Le hablo, a petición suya, del realismo
visceral. Después de hacer algunas observaciones del tipo «el realismo nunca es
visceral», «lo visceral pertenece al mundo onírico», etcétera, que más bien me
desconciertan, postula que a los muchachos pobres no nos queda otro remedio que la
vanguardia literaria. Le pregunto a qué se refiere exactamente con la expresión
«muchachos pobres». Yo no soy precisamente un ejemplar de «muchacho pobre». Al
menos no en el DF. Pero luego pienso en el cuarto de vecindad que Rosario comparte
conmigo y mi desacuerdo inicial comienza a desvanecerse. El problema con la
literatura, como con la vida, dice don Crispín, es que al final uno siempre termina
volviéndose un cabrón. Hasta allí tenía la impresión de que don Crispín hablaba por
hablar. De hecho, yo estaba sentado en una silla mientras él no paraba de moverse
cambiando libros de lugar o quitándole el polvo a rimeros de revistas. En
determinado momento, sin embargo, don Crispín se volvió y me preguntó cuánto le
cobraría por acostarme con él. He visto que no andas sobrado de pesos y sólo por
eso me atrevo a hacerte esta proposición. Me quedé helado. —Ya la regó, don Crispín
—dije. —Hombre, no te lo tomes a mal, sé que soy viejo y por eso te propongo una
transacción, digamos que una recompensa. —¿Es usted homosexual, don Crispín?

en donde me cubrió de besos. Mi tío se mantuvo firme, esperó a que mi tía se
desahogara y luego me palmoteo en un hombro. No tardaron en empezar las amenazas,
las recriminaciones y los consejos. En una palabra, querían que me marchara a casa
de inmediato o en su defecto a un hospital en donde pretendían someterme a una
revisión exhaustiva. Me negué. Al final hubo amenazas y cuando se marcharon yo me
reía a gritos y Rosario lloraba como una Magdalena.

Eso era lo que quería decir, le dije, que puesto que Angélica y él eran poetas, qué
importaba que uno perteneciera a una clase social y el otro a otra. —Pues mucho —
dijo Pancho. —No seas mecanicista, hombre —dije yo, cada vez más irreflexivamente
feliz. El taxista, de forma inesperada, apoyó mi discurso: —Si usted ya se la
benefició las barreras valen madre. Cuando el amor es bueno, lo demás no importa.

A partir de ese momento Pancho y el taxista se pusieron a discutir de religión y de


política y yo aproveché para contemplar el paisaje que se sucedía monótono en la
ventanilla: las fachadas de la Juárez y de la Roma Norte, y también me puse a
pensar en María y en lo que me separaba de ella, que no era la clase social, sino
más bien la acumulación de experiencia, y me puse a pensar en Rosario y en nuestro
cuarto de vecindad y en las noches maravillosas que había vivido allí pero que sin
embargo yo estaba dispuesto a cambiar por un ratito con María, por una palabra de
María, por una sonrisa de María. Y también me puse a pensar en mis tíos e incluso
me pareció verlos, alejándose por una de aquellas calles por las que pasábamos,
tomados del brazo, sin volverse para mirar el taxi que se perdía zigzagueando
peligrosamente por otras calles, inmersos en su soledad así como Pancho, el taxista
y yo íbamos inmersos en la nuestra. Y entonces me di cuenta que algo había fallado
en los últimos días, algo había fallado en mi relación con los nuevos poetas de
México o con las nuevas mujeres de mi vida, pero por más vueltas que le di no hallé
el fallo, el abismo que si miraba por encima de mi hombro se abría detrás de mí, un
abismo que por otra parte no me atemorizaba, un abismo carente de monstruos aunque
no de oscuridad, de silencio y de vacío, tres extremos que me hacían daño, un daño
menor, es cierto, ¡un cosquilleo en la boca del estómago!, pero que por momentos se
parecía al miedo. Y entonces, mientras iba con la cara pegada a la ventanilla,
entramos en la calle Colima y Pancho y el taxista se callaron, o tal vez sólo
Pancho se calló, como si diera por bien perdida su discusión con el taxista, y mi
silencio y el silencio de Pancho me sobrecogieron el corazón. Nos bajamos unos
metros más allá de la casa de las Font.

Yo me quedé unos metros detrás y el cuerpo de Pancho me ocultó la figura del
padrote. Ni yo pude verlo ni él pudo verme. Pero escuché su voz, bien timbrada,
como la de un cantante de rancheras, una voz arrogante pero no del todo
desagradable, en modo alguno la voz que yo le hubiera puesto, una voz en donde no
se percibía ni un ápice de vacilación y que contrastaba cruelmente con la de
Pancho, que empezó a tartamudear y que hablaba 135 demasiado alto, que se acercaba
demasiado aprisa al insulto y a la agresión.

enardeció tanto que me puse a temblar. En el acto me separé de ella. Recostado
contra la pared de la cocina, por un instante temí perder el equilibrio o
desmayarme allí mismo y tuve que hacer un esfuerzo para recuperar la normalidad. —
Tienes un buen corazón, García Madero —dijo ella mientras salía de la cocina
portando una bandeja con tres tazas de agua caliente, el Nescafé y el azúcar. La

yo, dijo: Baudelaire. Por supuesto, no era Baudelaire. Éstos eran los versos, a ver
si ustedes lo adivinan: Mon triste coeur bave á la poupe, Mon coeur couvert de
caporal: ils y lancent des jets de soupe, Mon triste coeur bave a la poupe: Sous
les quolibets de la trouppe Qui pousse un rire general, Mon triste coeur bave a la
poupe, Mon coeur couvert de caporal! Ithyphalliques et pioupiesques Leurs quolibets
I′on deprave! Au gouvernail on voit des fresques Ithyphalliques et pioupiesques. Ó
flots abracadabrantesques, Preñez mon coeur, qu'ilsoit lavé! Ithyphalliques et
pioupiesques Leurs quolibets Ion depravé Quand ils auront tari leurs chiques,
Comment agir, ó coeur volé? Ce seront des hoquets bachiques Quand ils auront tari
leurs chiques: 163 J'aurai des sursauts stomachiques, Moi, si mon coeur est ravalé:
Quand ils auront tari leurs chiques Comment agir, ó coeur volé? El poema es de
Rimbaud. Una sorpresa. Quiero decir, una sorpresa relativa. La sorpresa era que lo
recitara en francés. Bueno.

En lo que respecta a Ulises Lima, da la impresión de ir siempre drogado y su


francés es aceptable. Además, contó una historia bastante singular acerca del poema
de Rimbaud. Según él, Le Coeur Volé era un texto autobiográfico que narraba el
viaje de Rimbaud desde Charleville a París para unirse a la Comuna. En dicho viaje,
realizado ¡a pie!, Rimbaud se encontró en el camino con un grupo 167 de soldados
borrachos que tras mofarse de él procedieron a violarlo. Francamente, la historia
era un poco sórdida. Pero aún había más: según Lima, algunos de los soldados o al
menos el jefe de éstos, el caporal de mon coeur couvert de caporal, eran veteranos
de la invasión francesa a México. Por supuesto, ni Luisito ni yo le preguntamos en
qué se basaba para hacer tal afirmación. Pero a mí me interesó la historia (Luisito
no, él más bien se interesaba por lo que pasaba o dejaba de pasar a nuestro
alrededor) y quise saber más. Entonces Lima me contó que en 1865 la columna del

Un día me contó que se había peleado con el director. Yo le pregunté por qué y él
no me lo quiso decir. Es decir, dijo que fue por una diferencia de criterios
literarios y poco más. En claro saqué que el director había dicho que Neruda era
una mierda y que Nicanor Parra era el gran poeta de la lengua española. Algo así.
Por supuesto, me pareció inverosímil que dos personas se peleasen por un motivo tan
banal. En el país de donde yo provengo, me dijo él, la gente se pelea por
cuestiones parecidas. Bueno, le dije yo, en México son capaces de matarse por
nimiedades, pero no las personas cultas, desde luego. Ay, qué ideas tenía yo

Una tarde, sin embargo, el director, tras haberme preguntado otra vez por mi amigo,
me contó cómo había sido la pelea que tuvieron. El relato del director no variaba
mucho del que me hiciera mi amigo, la pelea fue por Neruda y Parra, por la validez
de ambas poéticas, sin embargo, en lo que me contó el director (y yo sabía que me
decía la verdad) había un elemento nuevo: cuando él se peleó con mi amigo, éste, al
quedarse sin argumentos en su defensa nerudiana a ultranza, se había puesto a
llorar. Allí mismo, en la sala del director compatriota suyo, sin el más mínimo
recato, como un niño de diez años, aunque por esos días ya tenía bien cumplidos los
diecisiete. Según el director, eran las lágrimas las que los separaban, las que
mantenían alejado de su casa a mi amigo, seguramente avergonzado (según el
director) de su reacción en una discusión que por lo demás tenía todas las
características y atenuantes de lo trivial y de lo circunstancial. Dile que venga a
visitarme, me dijo el director aquella tarde cuando me marché de su casa.

Inevitablemente, le pregunté por él. Su hermana, entonces, me hizo un pormenorizado


resumen de sus últimas andanzas. Había viajado por toda Latinoamérica, había
retornado a su país, había sufrido las inclemencias de un golpe de Estado. Sólo
atiné a decir: qué mala suerte. Sí, dijo su hermana, él pensaba quedarse a vivir
allí y a las pocas semanas de llegar a los milicos se les ocurre dar el golpe, es
mala pata. Durante un rato no supimos qué más decirnos. Me lo imaginé perdido en un
espacio en blanco, un espacio virginal que poco a poco se iba ensuciando,
emborronándose, ajeno a su voluntad, e incluso la cara que yo recordaba se me fue
desfigurando, como si a medida que hablaba con su hermana las facciones de él se
fundieran con aquello que su hermana me contaba, unas pruebas de valor ridículas,
unas pruebas de iniciación a la vida adulta aterrorizadoras, inútiles, tan lejos de
aquello que yo una vez pensé que él llegaría a ser, y hasta la voz de su hermana
que hablaba de la revolución latinoamericana y de las derrotas y victorias y
muertes que iban a jalonarla comenzó a desfigurarse y entonces ya no pude seguir
sentada un segundo más y le dije que tenía que marcharme a clases y que ya nos
veríamos en otra ocasión. Recuerdo que dos o tres noches después soñé con él. Lo
veía flaco, en los puros huesos, sentado bajo un árbol, con el pelo largo y mal
vestido, mal calzado, incapaz de levantarse y caminar.

Así era Arturo Belano, un pavorreal presumido y tonto. Y el realismo visceral, su

Le dije que abominaba del magnetófono por la misma razón que mi amigo Borges
abominaba de los espejos. ¿Usted fue amigo de Borges?, me preguntó Arturo Belano
con un tono asombrado un poco ofensivo para mí. Fuimos bastante amigos, le
respondí, íntimos, podría decirse, en los días lejanos de nuestra juventud. La
norteamericana quiso saber por qué Borges abominaba de los magnetófonos. Supongo
que porque es ciego, le dije en inglés. ¿Qué tiene que ver la ceguera con los
magnetófonos?, dijo ella. Le recuerda los peligros del oído, le respondí. Escuchar
su propia voz, los pasos de uno mismo, los pasos del enemigo. La norteamericana me
miró a los ojos y asintió. No creo que conociera a Borges demasiado bien. No creo
que conociera mi obra en absoluto, aunque a mí me tradujo John Dos Passos. Tampoco
creo que conociera mucho a John Dos 184 Passos.

verdaderamente inquietante! Aunque a mí, por razones que no viene al caso recordar,
me irritaba. Su olor, digo. Caracterológicamente, Belano era extravertido y Ulises
introvertido. Es decir, yo me parecía más a éste. Belano se sabía mover entre los
tiburones mucho mejor que Lima, qué duda cabe, mucho mejor que yo. Quedaba mejor,
sabía maniobrar, era más disciplinado, fingía con mayor naturalidad. El bueno de
Ulises era una bomba de relojería y lo que, socialmente hablando, es peor: todo el
mundo sabía o intuía que era una bomba de relojería y nadie, como es obvio y
disculpable, lo quería tener demasiado cerca. Ay, Ulises Lima... Escribía todo el
tiempo, es lo que más recuerdo de él, en los márgenes de los libros que sustraía y
en papeles sueltos que solía perder. Y nunca escribía poemas, escribía versos que
luego, con suerte, ensamblaba en largos poemas extraños... Belano, por el
contrario, escribía en cuadernos... Todavía me deben dinero...

Por supuesto, no sólo Piel Divina intentó llevarse a la cama a mi compañera,


también hicieron lo que pudieron Pancho y Moctezuma Rodríguez, e incluso Rafael
Barrios. Yo a veces le decía a Xóchitl: por qué no les dices que estás embarazada,
igual se desalientan y te dejan tranquila, pero ella se reía y decía que no le
molestaba que la cortejaran. Bueno, allá tú, le decía yo. No soy celoso. Pero una
noche, lo recuerdo con claridad, fue Arturo Belano el que intentó ligarse a
Xóchitl, y eso sí que me entristeció de verdad. Yo sabía que ella no se iba a ir a
la cama con ninguno, pero la actitud de ellos me molestaba. Era básicamente como si
me menospreciaran por mi aspecto físico.

¿Qué fue lo que pasó aquella noche, en el camión que nos transportaba únicamente a
nosotros por las calles vacías, por las calles ululantes del DF? No lo sé.
Probablemente una joven cuyo embarazo aún no se notaba se enamoró por unas horas de

Quién sabe, María, dijeron. Nunca los había visto tan hermosos. Sé que es cursi
decirlo, pero nunca me parecieron tan hermosos, tan seductores. Aunque no hacían
nada para seducir. Al contrario: estaban sucios, quién sabe cuánto hacía que no se
daban una ducha, cuánto que no dormían, estaban ojerosos y necesitaban un afeitado
(Ulises no porque es lampiño), pero yo igual los hubiera besado a los dos, y no sé
por qué no lo hice, me hubiera ido a la cama con los dos, a coger hasta perder el
sentido, y después a mirarlos dormir y después a seguir cogiendo, lo pensé, si
buscamos un hotel, si nos metemos en una habitación oscura, sin límite de tiempo,
si los desnudo y ellos me desnudan, todo se arreglará, la locura de mi padre, el
coche perdido, la tristeza y la energía que sentía y que por momentos parecía que
me asfixiaban. Pero no les dije nada.

Porque vivir en el DF es fácil, como todo el mundo sabe o cree o se imagina, pero
es fácil sólo si tienes algo de dinero o una beca o un trabajo y yo no tenía nada,
el largo viaje hasta llegar a la región más transparente me había vaciado de muchas
cosas, entre ellas la energía necesaria para trabajar en según qué cosas. Así que
lo que hacía era dar vueltas por la universidad, más concretamente por la Facultad
de Filosofía y Letras, haciendo trabajos voluntarios, podríamos decir, un día
ayudaba a pasar a máquina los cursos del profesor García Liscano, otro día traducía
textos del francés en el Departamento de francés, otro día me pegaba como una lapa
a un grupo que hacia teatro y me pasaba ocho horas sin exagerar mirando los
ensayos, yendo a buscar tortas, manejando experimentalmente los focos.

facultad, como una hormiguita o más propiamente como una cigarra, de un lado para
otro, de un cubículo a otro cubículo, al tanto de todos los chismes, de todas las
infidelidades y divorcios, de todos los planes y proyectos, y por las 200 noches me
expandía, me convertía en un murciélago, dejaba la facultad y vagaba por el DF como
un duende (me gustaría decir como un hada, pero faltaría a la verdad), y bebía y
discutía y participaba en tertulias (yo las conocí todas) y aconsejaba a los poetas
jóvenes que ya desde entonces acudían a mí, aunque no tanto como después, y vivía,
en una palabra, con mi tiempo, con el tiempo que yo había escogido y con el tiempo
que me circundaba, tembloroso, cambiante, pletórico, feliz. Y entonces yo llegué al
año 1968. O el año 1968 llegó a mí.

tela oscura pero con figuritas fosforescentes, como dicen que ven algunos locos o

casos así se suelta el estómago, pero no fue ciertamente mi caso), y con el libro

Hay una literatura para cuando estás ávido de conocimiento. Y hay una literatura

su cénit en lo que se refiere a maricones y yo pensé que ese techo era 216
infranqueable. Pero hoy abundan más que nunca. Supongo que la culpa de todo la
tiene la instrucción pública, la inclinación cada vez más común en los mexicanos a
dar la nota, el cine, la música, vaya uno a saber. El mismísimo Salvador Novo me
dijo una vez lo sorprendido que se quedaba con los modales y el lenguaje de algunos
jóvenes que iban a visitarlo. Y Salvador Novo sabía de lo que hablaba.

Dos días después apareció Arturo Belano por la editorial. Iba vestido con una
chaqueta de mezclilla y con bluejeans. La chaqueta tenía algunas roturas sin
parchear en los brazos y en el costado izquierdo, como si alguien hubiera estado
jugando a ensartarle flechas o lanzazos. Los pantalones, bueno, si se los hubiera
sacado se habrían mantenido de pie solos. Iba calzado con unas zapatillas de
gimnasia que daba miedo sólo verlas. Tenía el pelo largo hasta los hombros y
seguramente siempre había sido flaco pero ahora lo parecía más. Parecía que llevaba
varios días sin dormir. Vaya, hombre, pensé, qué desastre. Por lo menos daba la
impresión de que se había duchado esa mañana. Así que le dije: veamos, señor
Belano, esa antología que usted ha hecho. Y él dijo: ya se la he dado a Vargas
Pardo. Mal empezamos, pensé. Cogí el teléfono y le dije a mi secretaria que viniera
Vargas Pardo a mi despacho. Durante unos segundos ninguno de los dos hablamos.
Carajo, si Vargas Pardo tardaba un poco más en aparecer el joven poeta se me iba a
quedar dormido. Eso sí, no parecía maricón. Para matar el tiempo le expliqué que
los 217 libros de poesía, ya se sabe, se publican muchos pero se venden pocos. Sí,
dijo él, se publican muchos. Por Dios, parecía un zombi. Por un momento me pregunté
si no estaría drogado, ¿pero cómo saberlo? Bueno, le dije, ¿y le costó mucho hacer
su antología de poesía latinoamericana? No, dijo él, son todos amigos. Qué cara.
Así pues, dije yo, no habrá problemas de derechos de autor, usted tiene los
permisos. Él se rió. Es decir, permítanme que lo explique, torció la boca o curvó
los labios o mostró unos dientes amarillentos y emitió un sonido. Juro que su risa
me erizó los pelos. ¿Cómo explicarla? ¿Como una risa que sale de ultratumba?

he vivido en México. Y yo le dije: pues allá tú, que seas feliz, vive en ellos y
muérete en ellos si quieres, yo ya viajaré cuando tenga dinero. Entonces te faltará
tiempo, dijo él. No me faltará tiempo, dije yo, al contrario, seré dueña de mi

Murmuró que me amaba, que nunca me podría olvidar. Después se levantó (veinte
segundos después de hablar, a lo sumo) y me dio una bofetada en la mejilla. El
sonido resonó en toda la casa, estábamos en la primera planta pero yo oí cómo el
sonido de su mano (cuando la palma de su mano ya no estaba en mi mejilla) subía por
las escaleras y entraba en cada una de las habitaciones de la segunda planta, se
descolgaba por las enredaderas, rodaba como muchas canicas de cristal por el
jardín. Cuando reaccioné cerré el puño derecho y se lo estampé en la cara. Él
apenas se movió. Pero su brazo fue lo suficientemente rápido como para propinarme
otra bofetada.

arrugado, blanco con pintas rojas, un objeto casi vivo, y sentí unas náuseas

O puede que sea un latinajo o un neologismo, vaya uno a saber. O un término caído
en desuso. Y eso fue lo que les dije a los muchachos. Les dije: muchachos, así era
la prosa de Manuel Maples Arce, incendiaria y atrabancada, llena de palabras que
nos ponían cachondos, una prosa que puede que ahora no les diga nada pero que en su
época cautivó a generales de la Revolución, a hombres bragados que habían visto 227
morir y que habían matado y que cuando leyeron o escucharon las palabras de Manuel
se quedaron como estatuas de sal o estatuas de piedra, como diciendo qué chingados
es esto, una prosa que prometía una poesía que iba a ser como el mar, como el mar
en el cielo de México.

Antes yo le había advertido acerca de una de mis peculiaridades. Le dije, medio en
serio, medio en broma, estábamos riéndonos en el jardín del Museo de Arte Moderno,
en donde están las esculturas, qué horror de esculturas, le dije: Arturo, nunca te
acuestes conmigo porque yo soy masoquista. ¿Y cómo es eso?, dijo él. Pues que me
gusta que me peguen cuando hago el amor. Entonces Arturo dejó de reírse. ¿Lo dices
en serio?, dijo. Completamente en serio, dije yo. ¿Y de qué manera te gusta que te
peguen?, dijo. Golpes, dije yo, me gusta que me den bofetadas en la cara, que me
azoten las nalgas, cosas de ese tipo. ¿Fuerte?, dijo él. No, no muy fuerte, dije
yo. En México no debes coger mucho, dijo él después de pensar un rato. Le pregunté
por qué lo decía. Por las marcas, miss Marple, dijo él, nunca te he visto
magullada.

Fuimos amantes durante un tiempo. Tres meses, exactamente, lo que me faltaba para
volver a París. No todas las noches hicimos el amor. No todas las noches nos
veíamos. Pero lo hicimos de todas las formas posibles. Me ató, me azotó, me
sodomizó. Nunca me dejó una marca, salvo el culo enrojecido, lo que dice bastante
de su delicadeza. Con un poco más de tiempo yo hubiera terminado acostumbrándome a

No recuerdo si Ulises ya se había ido o si todavía andaba por aquí. «Sang de


satín». Desde el primer momento tuve problemas con ese poema de mierda. ¿Cómo
traducir el título? ¿«Sangre de satén» o «Sangre de raso»? Lo estuve pensando
durante más de una semana. Y fue entonces cuando de golpe se me vino encima todo el
horror de París, todo el horror de la lengua francesa, de la poesía joven, de
nuestra condición de metecos, de nuestra triste e irremediable condición de
sudamericanos perdidos en Europa, perdidos en el mundo, y entonces supe que ya no
iba a poder seguir traduciendo «Sangre de satén» o «Sangre de raso», supe que si lo
hacía iba a terminar asesinando a Bulteau en su estudio de la rué de Teherán y
luego huyendo de París como un desesperado. Así que decidí finalmente no llevar a
cabo tal empresa y cuando Ulises Lima se marchó (no recuerdo cuándo exactamente)
dejé de frecuentar para siempre a los poetas franceses.

Una vez, en el bar de la rué de la Lune, me dijo que le gustaban los baños
públicos, esos lugares adonde iban a bañarse los extranjeros, negros del África
francófona o magrebíes, aunque también iban estudiantes pobres, como le hice notar,
sí, también, dijo él, pero sobre todo extranjeros. Y una vez, lo recuerdo, me
preguntó si yo había ido alguna vez a un baño público mexicano. No, nunca, por
supuesto. Ésos sí que son baños públicos, me dijo, tienen sauna, baños turcos,
baños de vapor. Aquí también, le contesté, lo que pasa es que son más caros. En
México no, dijo él, allí son baratos. La verdad, nunca había pensado antes en los

libros. Por suerte yo nunca le presté uno. ¿Por qué? Porque no me gusta que
escriban sobre mis 248 libros. Y hacía algo todavía más chocante que escribir en
los márgenes. Probablemente no me lo crean, pero se duchaba con un libro. Lo juro.
Leía en la ducha. ¿Que cómo lo sé? Es muy fácil. Casi todos sus libros estaban
mojados. Al principio yo pensaba que era por la lluvia, Ulises era un andariego,
raras veces tomaba el metro, recorría París de una punta a la otra caminando y
cuando llovía se mojaba entero porque no se detenía nunca a esperar a que
escampara. Así que sus libros, al menos los que él más leía, estaban siempre un
poco doblados, como acartonados y yo pensaba que era por la lluvia. Pero un día me
fijé que entraba al baño con un libro seco y que al salir el libro estaba mojado.
Ese día mi curiosidad fue más tuerte que mi discreción. Me acerqué a él y le
arrebaté el libro.

Un apretón extrañísimo. Como si al estrechar la mano introdujera una mezcla de


signos masónicos y señales del hampa mexicana. Un apretón de mano, en cualquier

mano careciera de piel o sólo fuera una funda, una funda tatuada.

mexicano iba desgranando en un inglés por momentos incomprensible una historia que
me costaba entender, una historia de poetas perdidos y de revistas perdidas y de
obras sobre cuya existencia nadie conocía una palabra, en medio de un paisaje que
acaso fuera el de California o el de Arizona o el de alguna región mexicana
limítrofe con esos estados, una región imaginaria o real, pero desleída por el sol
y en un tiempo pasado, olvidado o que al menos aquí, en París, en la década de los
setenta, ya no tenía la menor importancia. Una historia en los extramuros de la
civilización, le dije. Y él dijo sí, sí, aparentemente sí, sí, sí.

el Palacio de la Inquisición, la cantina Las Dos Estrellas en la calle Loreto, la


cafetería La Sevillana en Justo Sierra, la cantina Mi Oficina en Misionero cerca de
Pino Suárez, en donde no dejaban entrar ni a uniformados ni a perros ni a mujeres,
salvo a una, la única que sí entraba, y vi a esa mujer caminar por esas calles otra
vez, por Loreto, por Soledad, por Correo Mayor, por Moneda, la vi atravesar
rápidamente el Zócalo , ah, qué visión, una mujer de veintitantos años en la década
de los veinte atravesando el Zócalo con tanta prisa como si acudiera tarde a una
cita de enamorados o como si se dirigiera a su chambita en alguna de las tiendas
del centro, una mujer vestida discretamente, con ropas baratas pero bonitas, el
pelo negro azabache, la espalda firme, las piernas no muy largas pero con la gracia
inigualable que tienen las piernas de todas las mujeres jóvenes, ya sean flacas o
gordas o bien torneadas, piernas tiernecitas y decididas, calzada con unos zapatos
sin tacón o con un taconcito mínimo, baratos pero bonitos y sobre todo cómodos,
hechos que ni adrede para caminar aprisa, para llegar a tiempo a una cita o al
trabajo, aunque yo sé que ella no va a ninguna cita ni la esperan en ningún
trabajo. ¿Adonde se dirige, entonces? ¿O es que no se dirige a ninguna parte y ésa
es su forma habitual de caminar? Ahora la mujer ya ha atravesado el Zócalo y toma
por Monte de Piedad hasta Tacuba, en donde el gentío es mayor y ya no puede caminar
tan rápido, y tira por Tacuba, desacelerada, y por un instante la muchedumbre me la
hurta, pero luego vuelve a aparecer, allí está, caminando en dirección a la Alameda
o puede que se detenga antes, en el Correo, pues en sus manos distingo ahora con
claridad unos papeles, cartas tal vez, pero no entra en Correos, cruza hasta la
Alameda y se detiene, parece que se detiene a respirar, y luego sigue caminando,
con el mismo ritmo, por los jardines, bajo los árboles, y así como hay mujeres que
ven el futuro, yo veo el pasado, veo el pasado de México y veo la espalda de esta
mujer que se aleja de mi sueño, y le digo ¿adonde vas, Cesárea?, ¿adonde vas,
Cesárea Tinajero?

Estuvimos alojados en la chambre de bonne de Ulises Lima. Bueno, el Ulises no


estaba muy bien que digamos. La habitación parecía un basurero. Entre mi compañera
y yo arreglamos un poco todo ese desorden, pero por más que barrimos y fregamos
allí quedaba algo que era imposible de quitar. Por las noches (mi compañera dormía
en la cama y Ulises y yo en el suelo) había algo brillante en el cielorraso. Una
luminiscencia que nacía en la única ventana —sucia a más no poder— y se extendía
por las paredes y el techo como una marea de algas. Cuando volvimos a Barcelona
descubrimos que teníamos sarna. Fue un palo. El único que nos la pudo haber pegado
era Ulises.

No sólo tenía ducha sino además una bañera enorme, con patas, en donde cabían
cómodamente tres personas. El problema era que Arturo no vivía solo sino con siete
u ocho más, una especie de comuna urbana, y a algunos no les pareció bien que mi
compañera y yo nos bañáramos en su casa. Bueno, no nos bañamos muchas veces después
de todo. 1977 fue el año en que Arturo Belano consiguió trabajo de vigilante
nocturno en un camping. Una vez lo fui a visitar. Le decían el sheriff y eso a él
lo hacía reír. Creo que fue en aquel verano cuando ambos, de 255 común acuerdo, nos
separamos del realismo visceral. Publicamos una revista en Barcelona, una revista
con muy pocos medios y de casi nula distribución y escribimos una carta en donde
nos dábamos de baja del realismo visceral. No abjurábamos de nada, no echábamos
pestes sobre nuestros compañeros en México, simplemente decíamos que nosotros ya no
formábamos parte del grupo. En realidad, estábamos muy ocupados trabajando e
intentando sobrevivir.

laberinto, un lugar, y esto no se lo dije a nadie, que en otras circunstancias me


hubiera asustado o repelido, por ejemplo, si en lugar de ir con Hugh, y también con
Steve y con John, hubiera ido sola. Pero por suerte no iba sola. Iba con mis
amigos. Hugh es como mi hermano. Y Steve me cayó simpático desde el primer momento.
John y Hans eran otra cosa. John era una especie de zombi y no me gustaba
demasiado. Hans era pura fuerza, un megalómano, pero se podía contar con él o eso

algo que siempre termina por aburrirme. Cuando cruzamos la frontera Steve tomó mi
lugar y yo me fui a uno de los últimos asientos de la furgoneta, en donde estaba
dormido el pequeño Udo, y desde allí seguí escuchando la cháchara de Hans, sus
planes para cambiar el mundo. Creo que nunca un desconocido se había portado de
forma tan generosa conmigo y me había caído tan mal. Hans era insoportable y además
un pésimo conductor. En un par de ocasiones nos perdimos. Durante horas estuvimos
vagando por una montaña, sin saber cómo retornar a la carretera que nos conduciría
a Barcelona. Cuando por fín 258 pudimos llegar a esta ciudad Hans se empeñó en que
fuéramos a ver la Sagrada Familia. A esa hora todos teníamos hambre y pocas ganas
de contemplar catedrales, por hermosas que éstas fueran, pero Hans era el que
mandaba y tras dar innumerables vueltas por la ciudad llegamos por fin a la Sagrada
Familia. A todos nos pareció bonita (menos a John, insensible a casi cualquier
manifestación artística), aunque sin duda hubiéramos preferido meternos en un buen
restaurante y comer algo. Sin embargo Hans dijo que en España lo más seguro era
comer fruta y allí nos dejó, sentados en un banco de la plaza, mirando la Sagrada
Familia, y él se marchó con Monique y con su pequeño en busca de una frutería.

fornido. Como Belano, llevaba una mochila pequeña colgando del hombro. Nada más
verse se pusieron a hablar en español, aunque su saludo, la forma en que se

la aparición de tantos y de golpe. Incluso hay un tipo que está haciendo una
antología con todos los poetas de México. Sí, dijo Rafael, eso ya lo sé. (Yo ya
sabía que él lo sabía.) Y no va a incluir poemas míos. ¿Y eso cómo lo sabes?, le
dije. Me lo confirmó un amigo, dijo Rafael, no quiere tratos de ninguna especie con

La segunda operación duró más de cinco horas. Yo me quedé dormida en la sala de


espera y soñé con Laura Damián. Laura venía a buscar a Ernesto y luego los dos
salían a pasear por un bosque de eucaliptos. Yo no sé si existen los bosques de
eucaliptos, quiero decir yo nunca he estado en un bosque de eucaliptos, pero el de
mi sueño era espantoso. Las hojas eran plateadas y cuando me rozaban los brazos
dejaban una marca oscura y pegajosa. El suelo era blando, como ese suelo de agujas
de los bosques de pino, aunque el bosque de mi sueño era un bosque de eucaliptos.
Los troncos de todos los árboles, sin excepción, estaban podridos y su hedor era
insoportable.

A eso de las tres me levanté para ir al baño y al pasar de puntillas por la sala
escuché que Ulises estaba llorando. No creo que se diera cuenta que yo estaba allí.
Estaba tirado bocabajo, supongo, desde donde yo estaba sólo era un bulto sobre el
sofá, un bulto cubierto con una manta y con un viejo abrigo, un volumen, una masa
de carne, una sombra que se estremecía lastimeramente.

Poco a poco, el único que quedó disponible para Ulises fui yo. Pero yo estaba
ocupado con el neo-302 kantismo, con la Escuela de Marburgo, con Salomón Maimón, y
la cabeza me daba vueltas porque cada noche, cuando salía a orinar, encontraba a
Ulises llorando en la oscuridad, y eso no era lo peor, lo peor era que algunas
noches pensaba: hoy lo veré llorar, es decir, que vería su rostro, porque hasta
entonces sólo lo oía, ¿y quién me asegura a mí que lo que escuchaba era un llanto y
no los gemidos, por ejemplo, de alguien en el proceso de hacerse una paja? Y cuando
pensaba que vería su rostro, lo imaginaba alzándose en la oscuridad, un rostro
anegado en llanto, un rostro tocado por la luz de la luna que se filtraba a través
de las ventanas de la sala. Y ese rostro expresaba tanta desolación que ya desde el
mismo momento en que me sentaba en la cama, en la oscuridad, sintiendo a Claudia a
mi lado, su respiración algo ronca, el peso como de una roca me oprimía el corazón
y yo también sentía ganas de llorar.

unos discursos que dieron la vuelta a México y que fueron reproducidos en
periódicos de muchas partes, de Monterrey y de Guadalajara, de Veracruz y de
Tampico, y que a veces nosotros leíamos en voz alta en nuestras reuniones de café.
Y Cesárea los preparaba allí y de esa manera peculiar: mientras fumaba y hablaba
con los guardaespaldas del general o mientras hablaba con Manuel o conmigo,
hablando y al mismo tiempo escribiendo a máquina los discursos, todo a la vez, qué
capacidad tenía esa mujer, muchachos, ¿ustedes han probado a hacer algo semejante?,

Lisandro Morales, pulquería La Saeta Mexicana, en los alrededores de La Villa,


México DF, enero de 1980. Cuando por fin apareció el libro de Arturo Belano, éste
ya era un autor fantasma y yo mismo estaba a punto de empezar a ser un editor
fantasma. Siempre lo supe. Hay escritores cenizos, gafes, de los cuales más vale
salir huyendo, no importa que creas o no en la mala suerte, no importa que seas
positivista o marxista, de esa gente hay que huir como de la peste negra. Y esto lo
digo con el corazón en la mano: hay que confiar en el instinto. Yo sabía que
sacando el libro de ese muchacho jugaba con fuego. Me quemé y no me quejo, pero
nunca está de más realizar algunas consideraciones sobre la catástrofe, la
experiencia ajena siempre le puede servir a alguien. Ahora bebo mucho, me paso el
día en la cantina, estaciono el coche lejos de mi domicilio, cuando llego a casa
suelo mirar hacia todos lados no sea que aparezca 316 sorpresivamente algún
cobrador.

pregunté. No, es de la calle, dijo Requena. Me asomé a la ventana y miré hacia mi
habitación, la luz estaba apagada. Después sentí las manos de Requena en mi cintura
y no me moví. Él tampoco se movió. Al cabo de un rato me bajó el pantalón y sentí
su pene entre mis nalgas. No nos dijimos nada. Cuando terminamos nos volvimos a
sentar a la mesa y encendimos un cigarrillo. ¿Se lo dirás a Xóchitl?, dijo Requena.
¿Quieres que se lo diga?, dije yo. Preferiría que no, dijo él. Me fui a las dos de

así eran Ulises Lima y Arturo Belano antes de que se marcharan a Europa. Como
Dennis Hooper y su reflejo: dos sombras llenas de energía y velocidad. Y no es que
tenga nada contra Peter Fonda pero ninguno de ellos se le parecía. Müller sí que se

empezábamos a hacernos el amor, y después Rafael me decía: ¿qué vamos a comer,

Mándame poemas suyos, le dije, pero Jacinto sólo manda cartas, así que no sé si
escribe bien o mal, si hace una poesía real visceralista o no, claro que también,
si he de ser sincero, tampoco sé qué es una poesía real visceralista. La de Ulises
Lima, por ejemplo. Puede ser. No lo sé. Sólo sé que en México ya no nos conoce
nadie y que los que nos conocen se ríen de nosotros (somos el ejemplo de lo que no
se debe hacer) y tal vez no les falte razón. Por lo que siempre es grato (o por lo
menos de agradecer) que haya un poeta joven que escribe o que quiere escribir a la
manera de los real visceralistas.

Recuerdo que yo callaba y sonreía e imaginaba el rostro de Piel Divina, también


sonriendo, de pie en alguna acera de la Zona Rosa o de Reforma, con su morralito
negro colgando de la espalda hasta rozar sus nalgas enfundadas en unos bluejeans
desgastados y estrechos, su sonrisa de labios gruesos dibujada con precisión de
cirujano en un rostro anguloso en donde no había ni un miligramo de grasa, como un
joven sacerdote maya, y entonces no pude más (sentí que las lágrimas subían a mis
ojos) y antes de que él me lo pidiera le di mi dirección (una dirección que
seguramente él ya tenía) y le dije que viniera, de inmediato, y él se rió, se rió
de felicidad y me dijo que desde donde estaba iba a tardar más de dos horas en
llegar y yo le dije que no importaba, que mientras tanto prepararía algo de cena, y
que lo estaría esperando.

Entonces, mientras comíamos, Piel Divina volvió a hablar de la desaparición de
Ulises Lima. Su teoría era estrafalaria y no resistía el más mínimo examen. Según
él, Lima huía de una organización, o eso creí entender al principio, que pretendía
matarlo, de ahí que al encontrarse en Managua decidiera no regresar. 368 Se lo
mirara como se lo mirara el relato era inverosímil. Todo había empezado, según Piel
Divina, con un viaje que Lima y su amigo Belano hicieron al norte, a principios de
1976. Después de ese viaje ambos empezaron a huir, primero por el DF, juntos,
después por Europa, ya cada uno por su cuenta. Cuando le pregunté qué habían ido a
hacer a Sonora los fundadores del realismo visceral, Piel Divina me contestó que
habían ido a buscar a Cesárea Tinajero. Tras vivir algunos años en Europa Lima
volvió a México. Tal vez creyó que todo estaría olvidado, pero los asesinos se
materializaron una noche, después de una reunión en la que Lima intentaba reagrupar
a los real visceralistas, y éste tuvo que volver a huir. Cuando le pregunté por qué
iba a querer alguien matar a Lima, Piel Divina dijo no saberlo.

¿Tú no viajaste con él, verdad? Piel Divina asintió. ¿Entonces cómo sabes toda esta
historia? ¿Quién te la contó? ¿Lima? Piel Divina dijo que no, que a él se lo había
contado María Font (me explicó quién era María Font) y que a ésta se lo había
contado su padre. Después me dijo que el padre de María Font estaba en un
manicomio. En una situación normal me hubiera puesto a reír ahí mismo, pero cuando
Piel Divina me dijo que quien había echado a correr el rumor era un loco sentí un
escalofrío. Y también sentí pena y pensé que estaba enamorado.

Cuando mi hija viene a 379 visitarme yo le digo que nos quedemos en la sala de
visitas o que salgamos a uno de los patios hexagonados, aunque sé que a ella la
sala de visitas y los patios pequeños le parecen desasosegantes y siniestros. En el
gran patio, sin embargo, ocurren cosas que yo no quiero que mi hija vea (señal,
según mi médico psiquiatra, de que mi salud va en franca mejoría) y otras cosas que
prefiero ser yo el único que, por el momento, tiene acceso a ellas.

Sólo había sido el amante ocasional de mi hermana, nada más, y luego García Fuentes
le dio una mordida a un funcionario de la comisaría y se aseguró de que no
volvieran a molestar a Julita. Más tarde, mientras desayunábamos, le pregunté a
Julita desde cuándo veía al tipo ese y me dijo que después de vivir una temporada
contigo estuvo viéndola a ella.

Jacinto Requena, café Quito, calle Bucareli, México DF, septiembre de 1985. Dos
años después de desaparecer en Managua, Ulises Lima volvió a México. A partir de
entonces pocas personas lo vieron y quienes lo vieron casi siempre fue por
casualidad. Para la mayoría, había muerto como persona y como poeta.
