Abstract
ZARTA ROJAS, Fabián Andrey. The Literary Rhizome: Performativity in the Subject. Enunciación [online]. 2022, vol.27, n.1, pp.45-55. ISSN 0122-6339. https://doi.org/10.14483/22486798.18218.
Literature transforms the subject because its raw material is words and imagination, two issues that operate in the human being for an adequate development of its reality. By sharing these elements, what we will call the infinite bifurcated consciousness emerges because the purpose of literature is to reveal possible worlds. Rhizomatic thinking is proposed as a method to evidence the complicities and possible articulations that exist between literature and performativity. This article does not try to exhaust the analytical potential, but rather to leave the door open for future explorations, reflections, or texts. In general, in literature during the XXI century, the role of performativity in the subject and its incidence in what is political is discovered. The activism of today’s world, both in its face-to-face and virtual versions (social networks), indicates the close relationship between aesthetics (including literature and fiction) and politics.
