Interrogating on the Essence of the Zombie World
2019
The chapter discusses critically the ontology of zombie world, as well as its interlink with the Thana-capitalism, as a new stage of capitalism where the Other’s death is gazed, consumed and preferred. The paradigm of the zombie world is debated in this chapter. In this respect, the culture of zombies situates in a futurist—apocalyptic—world, where technology and modern science have contributed to the end of mankind. The survivors not only struggle against zombies in a hostile world but also redeem the human nature according to two contrasting forces, the needs of survival which led to extreme individualism and the needs of re-foundation. The figure of the zombie represents the pauperized o…
An Unsolved Question. Husserl’s Path toward Genetic Intersubjectivity
2019
The problem of intersubjectivity has an ambiguous fate within phenomenology, since it is the object of a contradictory attitude: on the one hand, the question of intersubjectivity seems just to be an application of phenomenological theories and methods to a particular matter of fact. On the other hand, the issues related to intersubjectivity are loaded with high expectations due to their manifest practical, existential and personal meaning. This is what inspired the French tradition (J. P. Sartre, M. Merleau-Ponty, E. Levinas and today J.- L. Marion and J.-L. Nancy) to draw substantial existential consequences from the Husserlian epistemological analysis. In this paper I try to reconstruct …
VIAGENS E LEITURAS JAPONESAS EM RAKUSHISHA, DE ADRIANA LISBOA
2014
Resumo: No romance Rakushisha (2007), Adriana Lisboa representa varias dimensoes da experiencia da alteridade. Os dois protagonistas brasileiros que viajam ao Japao – Haruki em busca de suas raizes culturais, Celina em busca dela mesma – refletem a estadia da propria autora em Quioto, experiencia necessaria para poder escrever o livro, como afirma ela. A viagem do protagonsitas ao Japao tambem funciona como guia para os leitores na descoberta e no dialogo com as obras dos poetas japoneses Matsuo Bashō (1644-1694) e Sei Shōnagon (966-1025) – particularmente o Saga Nikki e o Livro de cabeceira – assim como a experiencia do Japao relatada por Roland Barthes em L’Empire des signes . Abstract: I…
Altérités dans l'expatriation lointaine : dialogisme des imaginaires collectifs et des discours individuels
2015
In a postcolonial context, this research looks into the itineraries of French expatriates, from a former colonial empire, in Malaysia, a former British colony. The autobiographical discourses of the French expatriates, blogs, research writings and research interviews, are analyzed in terms of the articulation between individual experiences and collective representations, interrogating how experiencing alterity, as well as writing or speaking about it, participates in the construction of identities. The discourse analysis is dialogical and takes in consideration a larger field of discourses: the centuries‐long orientalist discourse as theorized by Bill Ashcroft, Tzvetan Todorov or Edward Sai…
Interdisciplinarité et interculturalité à partir de deux romans : Les Nuits de Strasbourg d’Assia Djebar et Le Village de l’Allemand ou le journal de…
2021
My presentation focuses on interdisciplinarity and interculturality on the basis of two novels, "Les Nuits de Strasbourg" by Assia Djebar and "Le Village de l'Allemand ou le journal des frères Schiller" by Boualem Sansal. Firstly, I reflect in a general way on interdisciplinarity and its affinity with interculturality before addressing these issues in my corpus and in my work. Secondly, I look at some theories, interdisciplinary and sometimes intercultural, that help me to study my corpus in a harmonious way, which I illustrate with concrete analyses referring to the thought of Édouard Glissant. Finally, I propose interdisciplinary developments of an intercultural approach, that of Michael …
Orsi polari tra fantasia e realtà: i casi di SAID e Yoko Tawada
2020
This article examines the particular relationship that the German-Japanese writer Yoko Tawada and the German-Iranian writer SAID have with their second homeland, Germany. I also analyze how writers tell the experience of migration through the fantastic story of polar bears. SAID writes in the fairytale Schneebären lügen nie, 2013, of a fantastic encounter between a little girl and a lost polar bear and Tawada tells in the novel Etüden im Schnee, 2014, of three generations of polar bears and their experiences in different countries.
Hölderlin y lo no-dicho: sobre la cuestión del silencio en la interpretación de Martin Heidegger de su poesía
2016
<p class='p1'>En continuidad con una investigación previa, este trabajo se propone mostrar la importancia del tema del silencio en la interpretación heideggeriana de la poesía de Hölderlin y analizar el sentido ontológico que en ella adquiere. Para ello se indaga sobre la íntima conexión que Heidegger establece entre el silencio y el decir poético de Hölderlin, en la problemática pretensión que le atribuye de decir el ser salvaguardando a un tiempo su carácter indecible. Comprender tal pretensión exigirá atender al descubrimiento del poeta de la simultánea alteridad y dependencia de la modernidad con respecto a Grecia, y estudiar el modo en que esta cuestión determina tanto su poetiza…
Il transfert di Curial
2018
Resum: I risvolti sovranazionali riscontrati nei tre protagonisti dei romanzi del Quattrocento catalano (Jacob Xalabín, Curial e Tirant) consentono di procedere a un’analisi del Curial e Güelfa che ne sottolinea l’identità multipla e l’apertura culturale del processo di formazione del protagonista, nella sua ascesa economica e sociale. L’evoluzione del protagonista, grazie a un meccanismo psicologico, oggi riconosciuto come tale, consente il lieto fine del romanzo, diversamente da quanto avviene negli altri due, dove i protagonisti, Jacob e Tirant, rimangono sempre gli stessi. Grazie allo spostamento, al transfert, Curial non rimuove quello che lo minaccia, ma riesce a superarlo, se riguard…
Contra l'alteritat. L'erosió de la dicotomia jo/altre a «La pell de la frontera» (2016), de Francesc Serés
2018
En aquest article em propòs reflexionar sobre la recerca de mecanismes de representació literària de la diferència cultural i econòmica que es proposen erosionar la separació que justifica la dicotomia jo/altre. Ho faré a partir de l'estudi d'un cas concret: el volum La pell de la frontera (2014) de Francesc Serés. Aquest llibre contribuí a difondre la situació desesperada de molts migrants, així com també a denunciar la desatenció institucional davant d'uns canvis socials, econòmics i demogràfics que han modificat d'arrel la composició de molts pobles del Baix Cinca i del Segrià. En la meva lectura partiré de la hipòtesi que la representació dels objectes emprats i dels escenaris ruïnosos …
Habitar la finitud : El primer movimiento de la existencia humana como asentamiento residencial en el pensamiento fenomenológico de Jan Patocka
2018
To dwell in finitude. The first movement of human existence as residential settlement in Jan Pato?ka’s phenomenological thought
 
 Resumen: El presente estudio se centra en la interpretación del primero de los tres movimientos de la existencia humana postulados por el fenomenólogo checo Jan Patocka, como un procedimiento orientado a ocultar la originaria alteridad del Ser y, consecuentemente, a favorecer el habitar humano en el mundo. La propia estructura de nuestra percepción y nuestra relación original con los otros formarían parte de ese mecanismo de inserción residencial que caracteriza al movimiento de “anclaje” o “enraizamiento”.
 Palabras clave: Patocka, habitar, movi…
