How do formal absences generate meaning? Constructing an argument by way of montage, this book is an annotated inventory of textual, visual, and conceptual figures of absence. Spanning different media, it reveals a creative tradition that uses absence not as a negative aesthetic category, but as a productive state of radical indeterminacy with its own politics and poetics. Although post-structuralism highlighted the importance of what is offstage, lost, forgotten, hidden or discarded, silent or silenced, the poetics and politics of absence (much like its ethics and aesthetics) have rarely been discussed across media and disciplines. This book proposes the concept of 'radical absence' to describe a certain tradition of resistance to ontology, predication, and representation, contesting their reliance on a metaphysics of presence. Apophatic speech, empty signifiers, and figural voids are some of the figures through which radical absence becomes apparent with unprecedented intensity in twentieth-century theory, literature, film, and the arts. Phantasmatic and outrageous, such figures play with creative strategies of dematerialization, irony, and other forms of discursive undoing. Therefore, absence becomes more than a simple theme; it reflects back on the medium and the meaning-making conditions under which it operates. Elusive and imprecise as an object of study, absence requires more subtle and flexible epistemological frameworks than have been available to date. This monograph proposes we think of it not only as a counter-concept for presence, but also - and perhaps more productively - as infinite spacing, deferral, fragmentation, and displacement. lok: 51370205 3 exp: 51370205 3 1 #EPN 201B/01 $006-12-23 $t22:50:50.360 201C/01 $006-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01250177189 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a06-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 5 exp: 51370205 5 1 #EPN 201B/01 $006-12-23 $t22:50:50.364 201C/01 $006-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01250177197 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a06-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 8 exp: 51370205 8 1 #EPN 201B/01 $006-12-23 $t22:50:50.367 201C/01 $006-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01250177200 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a06-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 10 exp: 51370205 10 1 #EPN 201B/01 $006-12-23 $t22:50:50.369 201C/01 $006-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01250177219 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a06-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 11 exp: 51370205 11 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-12-23 $t13:26:31.012 201C/01 $012-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01251582168 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a12-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 13 exp: 51370205 13 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-12-23 $t13:26:31.017 201C/01 $012-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01251582176 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a12-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 21 exp: 51370205 21 1 #EPN 201B/01 $006-12-23 $t22:50:50.372 201C/01 $006-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01250177227 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a06-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 23 exp: 51370205 23 1 #EPN 201B/01 $006-12-23 $t22:50:50.374 201C/01 $006-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01250177235 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a06-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 24 exp: 51370205 24 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-12-23 $t13:26:31.021 201C/01 $012-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01251582184 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a12-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 25 exp: 51370205 25 1 #EPN 201B/01 $006-12-23 $t22:50:50.376 201C/01 $006-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01250177243 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a06-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 36 exp: 51370205 36 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-12-23 $t13:26:31.024 201C/01 $012-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01251582192 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a12-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 49 exp: 51370205 49 1 #EPN 201B/01 $020-08-24 $t23:32:13.642 201C/01 $020-08-24 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01269164988 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a20-08-24 $bl lok: 51370205 51 exp: 51370205 51 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-12-23 $t13:26:31.031 201C/01 $012-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01251582214 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a12-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 54 exp: 51370205 54 1 #EPN 201B/01 $020-08-24 $t23:32:13.653 201C/01 $020-08-24 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01269164996 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a20-08-24 $bl lok: 51370205 59 exp: 51370205 59 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-12-23 $t13:26:31.036 201C/01 $012-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01251582230 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a12-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 71 exp: 51370205 71 1 #EPN 201B/01 $020-08-24 $t23:32:13.657 201C/01 $020-08-24 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01269165003 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a20-08-24 $bl lok: 51370205 75 exp: 51370205 75 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-12-23 $t13:26:31.042 201C/01 $012-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01251582257 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a12-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 76 exp: 51370205 76 1 #EPN 201B/01 $020-08-24 $t23:32:13.662 201C/01 $020-08-24 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01269165011 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a20-08-24 $bl lok: 51370205 107 exp: 51370205 107 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-12-23 $t13:26:31.045 201C/01 $012-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01251582265 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a12-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 108 exp: 51370205 108 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-12-23 $t13:26:31.048 201C/01 $012-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01251582273 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a12-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 204 exp: 51370205 204 1 #EPN 201B/01 $006-12-23 $t22:50:50.379 201C/01 $006-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01250177251 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a06-12-23 $bl lok: 51370205 205 exp: 51370205 205 1 #EPN 201B/01 $006-12-23 $t22:50:50.381 201C/01 $006-12-23 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $0125017726X 204P/01 $010.1515/9783111150581 $S0 208@/01 $a06-12-23 $bl

Constructing an argument by way of montage, this book is an annotated inventory of textual, visual, and conceptual figures of absence. Spanning different media, it reveals a creative tradition that uses absence not as a negative aesthetic category, but as a productive state of radical indeterminacy with its own politics and poetics. Although post-structuralism highlighted the importance of what is offstage, lost, forgotten, hidden or discarded, silent or silenced, the poetics and politics of absence (much like its ethics and aesthetics) have rarely been discussed across media and disciplines. This book proposes the concept of 'radical absence' to describe a certain tradition of resistance to ontology, predication, and representation, contesting their reliance on a metaphysics of presence. Apophatic speech, empty signifiers, and figural voids are some of the figures through which radical absence becomes apparent with unprecedented intensity in twentieth-century theory, literature, film, and the arts. Phantasmatic and outrageous, such figures play with creative strategies of dematerialization, irony, and other forms of discursive undoing. Therefore, absence becomes more than a simple theme; it reflects back on the medium and the meaning-making conditions under which it operates. Elusive and imprecise as an object of study, absence requires more subtle and flexible epistemological frameworks than have been available to date. This monograph proposes we think of it not only as a counter-concept for presence, but also - and perhaps more productively - as infinite spacing, deferral, fragmentation, and displacement. | ||
