The Inquiry into Text and the Reconstruction of Literariness——with the reference of Jonathan Culler’s criticism on Roland Barthes’ later Textual TheoryTANG
Taking as a point of departure Roland Barthes later textual theory vis-a-vis Jonathan D Culler’s response to it, this paper explores the interrelation of text and aesthetics with the notion of literariness. The growing popularity of the concept of text, coupled with the advent of the Age of Theory, is often erroneously perceived as rendering literariness an insignificant remnant of essentialism. The paper challenges this misconception and proposes that the notion of literariness is in fact the recurring epicenter of any serious undertaking of questions in textual theory. Rather than simply returning to the discourse on aesthetics, it aims to examine the potential of textual self-reflexivity as well as pursue the practice of literary concretization and its new significations.
