11.01.2008 - Interpretation von dali48
Writing and Being. In the beginning was the word. The word was with "God" - signified God's word, the word was creation - but over the centuries of human culture the word has taken on other meanings, secular as well as religious... - And this is not just the great ontological question of why we are being here at all, for which religious and philosophies have tried to answer conclusively for various peoples at various times, and science tentatively attempts dazzling bits of explantation we are perhaps going to die out in our millenia, like the dinosaurs, without having developed the necessary comprehension to understand as a whole... - Perhaps it is the positive knowledge that humans now possess the means to destroy their whole planet, the fear that they have in this way themselves become the "Gods", dreadfully charged with their own continued existence, that has made comic-book and movie myth escapist... - The life, the opinions, are not the work, for it is in the tension between standing apart and being involved that the imagination transforms both... - There is a little Kaffka parable that goes like this - 'I have 3 dogs: Hold-him - Seize-him - and Nevermore'... - Both Borges and Sartre, from their totally different extremes of denying literature a social purpose, were certainly perfectly aware that it has its implicit and unalterable social role in the state of being, from which all other roles derive... - And Brecht wrote of a time when 'to speak of trees is almost a crime' (instead of cutting too many trees worldwide etc. - d.48)... - Sartre's solution makes no sense in a world where writers were - and still are - censored and forbidden to write, where, far from abandoning the word, lives were and are at risk in smuggling it, on scraps of paper, out of prisons... -There have been many examples of so-called offense against hypocritical bourgeois mores - just as there have been of treason against political dictatorships... (N. Gordimer, Nobel L. 1991)
