Antropogenetic of art and literature. Interferences between aesthetics and technique philosophy

Abstract

This paper aims to outline the preliminaries of an antropogenetic theory of literature and art. From a critique of the romantic perspective that opposed art to technique, the work develops a conception of literature as technique not reduced to an instrument, or to an indeterminate but finite set of procedures. Literature is a technical object, a co-individuating transformation of subject and object, life and language. Art as technique implies, in the same gesture, subjectivity as operation, its place in mechanisms of power and its eminently unfundamented condition. This proposal aims to create new spaces of theoretical discussion in the emerging digital humanities.
