Abstract

Alterity is in danger. It is a masterpiece in peril, an object lost or missing from our system, from the system of artificial intelligence and the system of communication in general. -from Radical Alterity Where is the Other today? Can Otherness challenge our arrogant, insular cultural narcissism? From artificial intelligence to the streets of Venice, from early explorers to contemporary photographers, Jean Baudrillard and Marc Guillaume discuss the traces of radical alterity in our world. These provocative seminars, held in 1990 and 1991, follow the multiple, intertwined trajectories first projected in Baudrillard's work and his reading of the "radical exoticism" posited by Victor Segalen-ideas Baudrillard extends into the realms of mass media, pseudonyms, technology, and that illusorily close yet radically foreign "primitive society of the future," America. In a world where no corner is unexplored, the Other remains a challenge to thought, a crack in the shell of universal understanding, impossible to communicate but potentially the linchpin of communication itself. Together, Baudrillard and Guillaume explore the threatened and fatal figures of radical alterity. This collection is no longer available in French, and this English edition includes an additional essay by Baudrillard, "Because Illusion and Reality Are Not Opposed."

Abstract

L'ouvrage propose une approche renouvelée du « discours rapporté ». Il inscrit la « Représentation du Discours Autre » (RDA) dans une problématique d'ensemble comme articulation métalangage/altérité, à partir de choix théoriques explicites aux divers plans (langue, discours, sujet, langage) où elle opère. Le parcours conduit à redéfinir les contours du champ ; à reconnaître les cinq « solutions » syntaxiques, énonciatives, sémantiques offertes par la langue pour articuler deux actes d'énonciation dans un énoncé et combiner, chacune à sa manière, les trois opérations métalangagières de catégorisation, paraphrase, autonymisation; à envisager la fonction d'auto-configuration du discours par sa RDA (« prélèvement » par rapport à la présence, constitutive, de l'interdiscours ou de l'ailleurs du « déjà-dit »), comme relevant d'un « travail de bords » assurant différentiellement, outre la caractérisation du discours (et de soi) par « ses autres », la délimitation d'un intérieur de « parole propre ». La démarche se double d'un parcours critique précis, d'une abondante bibliographie et d'un important corpus (oral/écrit, énoncés, textes, genres) de faits attestés. This book offers a general model of reported speech that relies on clear, well-argued theoretical choices in order to describe accurately the diversity of observed situations. The metalanguage/alterity articulation is critically discussed at various levels (language, discourse, subject) where a central function of differential auto-configuration takes place.

Abstract

Over the last few decades, in the wake of the ‘Ethical Turn’, contemporary literature has been examined through the prism of the ethics of alterity. Yet, this may not be consis­tently the case with Victorian and Modernist literature, since relatively few of the authors of those periods have elicited such critical and ­theoretical scrutiny. The articles in this volume set off to re-read Victorian and Modernist literature in the light of the ethics of alterity and investigate whether the post-Auschwitz, contemporary period breaks away from or favours lines of continuity with the productions of the earlier era. It also strives to address works which do not belong to the canon, focusing alternately on great authors and less known artists, on what has been termed ‘minor’ texts or genres that are less visible than the novel. Approaching literature by examining the relations between ethics and aesthetics, even while adopting an ethical approach, helps the authors in this volume contribute to revising the contemporary, Modernist and Victorian canon in English Literature.

Abstract

This study addresses two desiderata of historical emotion research: reflecting on the interdependence of textual functions and the representation of emotions, and acknowledging the interdependence of studies on the premodern and modern periods in the history of emotion. Contemporary research on the history of emotion is characterised by a proliferation of studies on very different eras, authors, themes, texts, and aspects. The enthusiasm and confidence with which situations, actions, and interactions involving emotions in history are discovered, however, has led to overly direct attempts to access the represented objects (emotions/feelings/affects); as a result, too little attention has been paid to the conditions and functions of their representations. That is why this study engages with the emotion research of historians from an unashamedly philological perspective. Such an approach provides, among other things, insights into the varied, often contradictory, observations that can be made about the history of emotion in modernity and premodernity.

Abstract

Portraying the other in international relations significantly shapes interaction among actors in the international field, consequently colouring views of the other and legitimating behaviour toward the other. This edited volume presents current analyses by international scholars on othering processes and self-other constructions within international relations, attempting to fill a gap in the debate on this fascinating topic and its socio-political implications. Othering is illustrated in thre...
