Da li književnost misli?
Gourgouris Stathis
Summary
Stathis Gourgouris: Does literature think?
The book asks whether literature has the ability to conceptually articulate the state of the world from which it originates and to which it addresses allegorically without external teaching. The author insists that the project that understands literature as theory is not, strictly speaking, philosophical. The invention of literature as an absolute theoretical practice, which is traditionally recognized as a romantic endeavor that is unimaginable outside the Enlightenment, is nothing more than a mythopoetic articulation of the anthropocentric, secular, social imagination that we recognize as characteristic of this historical period. In this sense, the question of literature as a theory for the antimythic age goes beyond the starting point of the ancient dispute between poetry and philosophy and goes to the radical significance of the political itself - more precisely, to the question of how we, in our own socio-historical moment, understand, evaluate and implement the political relationship to the poetic.
Stathis Gourgouris:
Literary theorist and professor of comparative literature at Columbia University. His theoretical research covers the fields of world literature, literary theory, modern theory, poetic discourse, secular criticism and contemporary music, mainly in the context of poetics and politics of modernity and democracy.
