The Desire Called Modernism
In 2005, Fredric Jameson published a career-spanning collection of essays on science fiction (implicitly, on popular culture), Archaeologies of the Future: The Desire Called Utopia and Other Science Fictions; the volume under review here, The Modernist Papers, collects essays on the giants of highbrow, high-modernist literature (Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Mallarme, Kafka, Mann, Joyce, Proust, Williams, Stevens, Stein . . .). So Jameson has reached that…

Constellation and Critique
Constellation and Critique: Adorno’s Constellation, Benjamin’s Dialectical Image Steven Helmling (bio) Abstract This essay considers Adorno’s theory and practice of “constellation,” most centrally in relations both of influence and of tension with Walter Benjamin’s practice of the “dialectical image.” In later years, Adorno frequently ascribed to Benjamin’s practice a “Medusa-gaze” that effectively petrified, or (telling ambivalence) exposed the …
Brecht Our (Post-) Contemporary
Brecht Our (Post-) Contemporary Steven Helmling Fredric Jameson, Brecht and Method London and New York: Verso, 1998. Fredric Jameson’s oeuvre is daunting for almost every possible reason. Besides its sheer bulk, the difficulty of its themes, and its notoriously demanding prose style, there’s the vast scope of the cultural materials it takes on. Nothing cultural is alien to Jameson, as Colin McCabe once put it (in words quoted on the back cover of…

It is in the spirit of that experiential or “dialectical” emphasis that Jameson proposes an off-standard response to what (he says) most people receive as Lacan’s “programmatic slogan,” th…

Historicizing Derrida Steven Helmling Always historicize! -Fredric Jameson Accounts of Derrida stress his work's diversity, and handle it in various ways; but none that I know of narrativizes this diversity, whether to relate it to its historical period, or to consider it as a corpus with a development, a record of internal tensions or contradictions-in short, a history-of its own. I want in this essay to initiate such an account, and my gambit w…
