Starobinski Jean

Summary

Jean Starobinski: The Living Eye

Corneille, Racine, La Bruyere, Rousseau, Stendhal

Of all the senses, sight is the one that impatience rules in the most obvious way. Some magical desire, never fully effective, never discouraged, follows our every fleeting glance: to grab, strip, petrify, penetrate. To be fascinated by what he has to say and to discover the glow of a hidden fire in some immobile pupil. These are all implied actions, and they do not always remain in the state of intention. By expressing the intensity of your desire, it can happen that the gaze becomes effective. “Koliko bi djece bilo kada bi pogled mogao oploditi! Koliko mrtvih, kada bi mogao ubijati! Ulice bi bile prepune leševa i bremenitih žena”. What! Didn't Valeri see all those corpses and all those pregnant women on our streets?
