Staring into the Literary Abyss: on Blanchot
by Deng Bingyan
About This Novel
This book takes Blanchot's literary thoughts as the research object, and uses themes such as literature, writers, works, narratives, literary language, and readers as basic clues to explain how these basic literary elements are disintegrated one by one under Blanchot's perspective, thus presenting a "literary space" that makes Blanchot's thoughts full of destructive power. Focusing on this space, this book not only discusses Blanchot's writing thought of opening "literary space" as his essential task, but in the final part, it turns from literature to ethics and discusses the essential changes in the relationship between people and the world and between people presented by "literary space". Ultimately, this book uses literature as a breakthrough point to combine Blanchot's thinking on literature with his thinking on themes such as death, writing, neutrality, night, silence, loneliness, community, friendship, etc., Hoping to comprehensively explain Blanchot's thought and retain the destructive power of this thought to the greatest extent.
