Toward Transcultural Theory
“Theory” is a label that first gained significance in the context of American (and multinational) universities in the late 1960s onward, in reference to the groundbreaking work led by European (and mainly French) scholars, whose writings (both literarily and philosophically inflected) were cutting across the disciplines and vigorously reassessing epistemic prejudices and consensus, in a way that also seemed to respond to the demands of the times—…

Contre la politique d'identité
The Refusal of Politics
Laurent Dubreuil provocatively proposes an extremist rethinking of the limits of politics – toward a break from politics, the political and policies. Rather than yet another re-articulation, he calls for a refusal of politics, suggesting a form of apolitics that would make our lives more liveable. The first chapter situates the refusal of politics in relation to different contemporary theoretical attempts to renew politics, and makes the case for…

Les palinodies du système
Empire of Language
The relationship between power and language has been a central theme in critical theory for decades now, yet there is still much to be learned about the sheer force of language in the world in which we live. This book explores the power-language phenomenon in the context of European and, particularly, French colonialism and its aftermath. Through readings of the colonial experience, it isolates a phraseology based on possession, in terms of both …

A questão que nos é endereçada, a mim, como aos outros colaboradores deste número de revista, não é minha em nenhum caso. Mas eu sei que ela interessa, e eu concebo que, apesar das minhas restrições, ela também me diz respeito. Isto que me disponho a escrever constitui as palavras de um agnóstico. Eu não acredito nem à, nem em, nem na “filosofia-francesa”

Friends of War
What Is Literature's Now
Yes, it is still time to read literature and to write about it. In this essay, I consider the different moments of the literary experience and how diffracted "nows" lead us to nonrational and exceeding thought. If poetical oeuvres always come after other discourses (and not before them, as it is usually said), we need to reinspect the very notions of time and history through the prism of literature. In reading several discrete corpus (from the Fr…
Leaving Politics
This article explores the category of biopolitics through the use Roberto Esposito and Giorgio Agamben make of two Greek words, bios and ōē. In particular, I argue that the separation of bios and ōē as introduced in Homo Sacer has no "natural" nor "lingual" relevance. The exposition of such a fabulous antinomy simply ruins the historical matter of Agamben's discourse on biopolitics. Here, Esposito's research could be read as an attempt to found t…
The Presences of Deconstruction
This article focuses on literature's response to philosophy and provides a reading of Cixous's The Day I Wasn't There. If Cixous's novel evokes specters in its poetical composition and its writing, it is due to an analysis of a presence of absence largely indebted to Derrida's philosophy. However, there is more than that and more than the official difference Cixous and Derrida have acknowledged publicly. Cixous's difference is also able to differ…
L'apolitique de Maupassant
Apolitics of Maupassant Maupassant's reputation for "Frenchness" neglects his rejection of politics for a critique based in aesthetics and the individual, which makes say an anti- Semitic reading of the "Horla" impossible
