Abstract
Abstract Beginning with Lacan’s infamous provocation in Seminar XVIII—“peut-être, je ne suis lacanien que parce que j’ai fait du chinois autrefois”—this paper examines the stakes of his long but fragmented engagement with Chinese writing, specifying his concerns by distinguishing them from the political dreams of his contemporaries. How does this engagement differ from the comparison or application of knowledge?
摘要 本文从拉康在第十八次研讨会上那句臭名昭著的挑衅--"peut-être, je ne suis lacanien que parce que j'ai fait du chinois autrefois"--开始,探讨了他长期但零散地参与中国写作的利害关系,通过将其与同时代人的政治梦想区分开来,明确了他所关注的问题。这种参与与知识的比较或应用有何不同?
期刊介绍:
An established journal of reference inviting all critical approaches on the latest debates and issues in the field, Contemporary French & Francophone Studies (formerly known as SITES) provides a forum not only for academics, but for novelists, poets, artists, journalists, and filmmakers as well. In addition to its focus on French and Francophone studies, one of the journal"s primary objectives is to reflect the interdisciplinary direction taken by the field and by the humanities and the arts in general. CF&FS is published five times per year, with four issues devoted to particular themes, and a fifth issue, “The Open Issue” welcoming non-thematic contributions.
