Abstract

Colonial Spanish bureaucracy produced masses of “autobiographical” texts ('relaciones de méritos and servicios') which forced/invited individuals to present themselves as perfect subjects of the King in order to be rewarded. Bureaucracy produced the officials of the colonial regime, and, at the same time, it provided individuals with the possibility of exploring the literary potential of writing one’s curriculum vitae. This book helps contextualize a body of often-used yet understudied historic sources; it indicates that the fabric of early modern society was held together by a pervasive economy of 'mercedes' (rewards); and it shows that the tension between state-induced production of autobiographical documents and the individual’s endeavor to outsmart this system is at the origin of modern forms of literature.

Abstract

How is a body written, and in which ways can literary texts shed light on the tension between immediate bodily expressions and writing if medieval writing practices compete with the new technology of printing? The present volume Escritura somática: La materialidad de la escritura en las literaturas ibéricas de la Edad Media a la temprana modernidad explores the relations between corporality and writing in genres and discourses that are key for understanding the phenomenon. The Iberian perspective, including contributions on Spanish and Portuguese texts, focusses on the materiality of writing with a shared epistemic frame. Contributors are Isabel de Barros Dias, Stephanie Béreiziat-Lang, Juan Casas Rigall, Robert Folger, Juan Pablo Mauricio García Álvarez, Miguel García-Bermejo Giner, Folke Gernert, Santiago Gutiérrez García, Simon Kroll, Miriam Palacios Larrosa, Adrián J. Sáez, and Margarida Santos Alpalhão.

Abstract

Das Werk Rousseaus ist ein Ereignis planetarischer Auswirkung. Dass dieses Werk symptomatisch für die Moderne wurde, hat seinen Grund in der aporetischen Verschränkung von Autonomie und Heteronomie, die nach dem Tod des Königs jeder republikanischen Verfassung eingeschrieben ist.Rousseau ist sich dieser Problematik bewusst, wenn er um die Frage von Fremd- und Selbstbestimmung kreist. Er legt eine Spaltung im Subjekt gerade dort bloß, wo sich kollektive Vernunft und individueller Affekt, symbolische Ordnung und Imaginäres entzweien. Das diskursive Feld, das man als »Rousseauismus« bezeichnet, bleibt davon nicht unberührt; denn wenn politische Denker und Literaten weltweit Rousseau für sich in Anspruch nehmen, transkodieren sie kein stabiles Wissen, sondern verstricken sich unweigerlich in Widersprüche. Diesen Widersprüchen gehen die Autoren von Planet Rousseau nach.
