The body of literary knowledge that has taken as its object of investigation narratives of the previously unrepresentable realm between the death of the symbolic order (in which the narratives take place) and the social death of its representative agents -neoslavery narratives, holocaust testimony, witness literature-has isolated negative interpellation as one of the invariant features of this emergent literary practice. The subject in/of each of these narratives has been voided of any imaginary relation to the real state violence to which the subject has been interpellated. What is negative in the interpellation then refers at once to the status of the subject before she/he was taken up by the interpellative address (Hey, you there!) as well as to the sociosymbolic order that had come disjoined from that addressee
