Narrative vs. Event
Oct. 17th, 2009 08:27 pmI almost understand some tiny little bits of what Jameson is doing with historicity! If I work hard, I may be able to decipher complete sentences instead of just scattered clauses!
(Oh, God, why do I put myself through this? Why?)
This historicity thing seems...remarkably similar to what my limited understanding tells me deconstruction is. Hmm. Depending on how many disclaimers I'll need to pile on (i.e., whatever isn't covered by the "I'm ignoring every single Marxist implication of this theory" I have in there already), this could potentially go some interesting places.
What has happened to me?
