Thematic notes

Current research theme(s)

A prefigurative, non-narrative hermeneutics of aesthetic quandary (as mark of serenity).

Questions:

1. What is "figuration" vis-à-vis visual language, preliterate and/or aesthetic?

2. What exactly means "non-narrative text"? (3) Is it found where 'relationships between the parts (of a work or text) are at once alogical and non-sequential, and where order, as it were, follows the impressions of felt experiences'? (S. Delehanty, 1975). (4) Does "non-narrative" inevitably imply a fragmentary, partially contextualized or simply misunderstood text? (5) To what extent can gibberish be textual? (6) What are the hermeneutic ramifications of this, if any?
