LECTURE: "DIE PHILOSOPHIE VON
MARGUERITE DURAS"
Stoltzestr. 7-9, 60311 Frankfurt/Main |
 |
Philosopher Marcus Steinweg screens two films by writer and
film director Marguerite Duras (1914-96), Le Mains Negative (1978) and Césarée (1978). This is followed
by a lecture titled, The Philosophy of Marguerite Duras.
In his usual intense delivery, Steinweg explains that Duras
is not a philosopher and without question did not want to be
one; yet there is something like an implicit philosophy of Duras.
What Duras calls writing is maybe not so different from the
actual practice of philosophy. Writing in a Durassian sense
is to dare to touch the untouchable, an experience that takes
a subject to its limits. (Text after Marcus Steinweg) |
