The “where” of this normalcy, the space at University of Social or place of the everyday, seems to be a fairly complex issue, if only for the Sciences and Humanities in Warsaw. He published fact that the scene of the everyday may always be the same as the scene of books and articles on the unusual. Freud saw this duality at work in the German word unhemlich British and American in which the security of the homely is as it were haunted by the irreducible culture and literature, literary theory, and sense of the unhomely, the source of homesickness which he famously located cultural studies. His in the place of one’s “mother’s genitals or her body” (Freud, 245). From this academic interests concentrate on the perspective, anything beyond the body of the mother seems to be unhomely, cultural and ideological with the home of everyday life being a remainder of something lost. What aspects of labour and has thus always already been lost is the place where we are in an ordinary the metamorphoses of its ethos in different way, the place, or space where, as Maurice Blanchot phrases it defining the discursive formations. everyday, “[n]othing happens; this is the everyday” (Blanchot, 15). The everyday, for Freud and Blanchot, is a space of withdrawal and anonymity from whose perspective anything that happens, any event, may seem to be something unusual. If the “everyday is without event” (Blanchot, 17), as Blanchot has it, then any event is as it were eventful, something momentous and significant which evades the uneventful being of the everyday. The space of the everyday is not to be found at home for Blanchot, or indeed in any closed and regulated space. He sees the most uneventful of spaces outside, in the street of the city, in the environment of what seems to be fully constructed and controlled: The everyday is human. The earth, the sea, forest, light, night, do not represent everydayness, which belongs first of all to the dense presence of great urban centers. We need these admirable deserts that are the world’s cities for the experience of the everyday to begin to overtake us. The everyday is not at home in our dwelling- places, it is not in offices or churches, any more than in libraries or museums. It is in the street – if it is anywhere. (Blanchot, 17) The space of the everyday is, perhaps paradoxically, an unhomely space also exactly because it is a space rather than a place, it is an unmappable terrain which, however, haunts places with the impossibility of normalization. The essays included in this issue address the everyday and its spaces as it were tangentially, without bringing the notion to the fore and thus without concretizing it as an analytical category. Rather, they approach the everyday spaces as nostalgic constructions of home and homeliness away from the street, within the enclosures of domesticity from which the everyday inevitably slips away and opens them up to what Henri Lefebvre called everydayness (la quotidienneté), designating with this term the destructive attractiveness of the banality of repetitive life. The space of everyday le( quotidien), unlike the places of everydayness, is a polyrhythmic construct, a realization of “the multiplicity of rhythms and the uniqueness of particular rhythms” (Lefebvre, 16) to which everydayness is as it were deaf.

One consequence of this The Southern Quarterly, Notes and Queries and conservative metaphysics was, as may be seen in Ransom’s poem “Antique Journal of American Harvesters” (1923), that the “harvester” (Ransom’s archaic term for the ten- Studies (forthcoming). ant or small farmer) became abstracted from the mechanisms of the market. In 2016 – 2017 he received a research fellowship It does not really matter that Ransom’s harvesters raised a crop that was only to study the manu- a “meagre hill of kennels, a runnel of juice” (Ransom 1952, 50) because the aim scripts of James Agee at the Harry Ransom of the harvester was to turn labour into a “form”, a form that was comparable Center in the University to the aesthetic forms of literature and manners (Ransom 1938, 30). Similarly, of Texas, Austin Andrew Lytle observed in “The Hind Tit”, his contribution to the Agrarian anthology, that: “A farm is not a place to grow wealthy: it is a place to grow corn” (205). But as the Depression continued into the mid-1930s this key figure in earlier Agrarian aesthetics—the Southern farmer—began to unravel and to turn into the cotton tenant depicted in James Agee and Walker Evans’s Let Us Now Praise Famous Men (1941) or, further down the socio-economic scale, the tramp who walks off in Robert Penn Warren’s short story “Blackberry Winter” (1946). Robert Penn Warren was later to say that the project of Agrarianism that began in 1930 with I’ll Take My Stand “seemed irrelevant” by the late 1930s and he and some other Southerners now placed the farmer within the framework of an international economic crisis and chose rougher naturalisms to describe him (Warren 1980, 22). The intention of this essay is to track this process of transmutation of “har- vester” to impoverished tenant or tramp in Agee and Warren: from figure of natural or autochthonous wealth to one who was emptied out by the historical processes at work in the Depression South. Agee’s strange angle of vision on agricultural life in Alabama seems especially subversive of the conservative metaphysics of the soil that prevailed in the discourses of southern modernism. Agee dissented from the Agrarian adaptation of T.S. Eliot’s notion of the tradition to the South and his radicalism brought him close to being a Marxist writer. But in the end his sensuous receptiveness to creaturely life—or, put more philosophically, his overwhelming phenomenalism of the object and its “cruel radiance” (Agee 1966, 11)—prevented easy short cuts to the ideological formula. The result was a type of Southern literary radicalism that was unique to Agee, although it had certain affinities to Georges Bataille’s theory of the sacred community in interwar France. Agee came to his work on Praise with a certain bias toward documentary naturalism that was common in the 1930s. In this decade the appropriate mode of representation for the dispossessed “harvester” seemed that of quasi- photographic exactitude (“the camera seems to me … the central instrument of our time”, Agee said [ Agee 1966, 11 ]). The assumption lying behind the works of the writers associated with the Works Progress Administration (WPA) and Farm Security Administration (FSA) was that a scrupulous documentation of poverty could be the foundation for effective state intervention. When Agee was commissioned in 1936 to undertake the cotton tenants’ project by the business magazine Fortune he perhaps first intended to follow this path: he initially described what he was going to do to his friend Father Flye as 8 kultura popularna 2018 Nr 1 (55) “a study of Farm Economics in the South” (Agee 1962, 92).

Foregrounding the intertwining of Hustvedt and Auster’s emotional relationship with the embodied process of aesthetic expression, the first chapter traces the development of the authors’ nascent identities through their non-fictional works, focusing upon the autobiographical, genealogical, canonical and interpersonal foundation of formative selfhood. Chapter two examines the influence of postmodernist theory and poststructuralist discourse in shaping Hustvedt and Auster’s early fictional narratives, offering an alternative reading of Auster’s work outside the dominant postmodernist label, and attempting to situate the hybrid spatiality of Hustvedt and Auster’s writing within the ‘after postmodernism’ period.

The typewriter is a manual Olympia, more than 25 years old, and has been the agent of transmission for the novels, stories, collaborations, and other writings Auster has produced since the 1970s, a body of work that stands as one of the most varied, creative, and critcally acclaimed in recent American letters. It is also the story of a relationship. A relationship between Auster, his typewriter, and the artist Sam Messer, who, as Auster writes, "has turned an inanimate object into a being with a personality and a presence in the world." This is also a collaboration: Auster's story of his typewriter, and of Messer's welcome, though somewhat unsettling, intervention into that story, illustrated with Messer's muscular, obsessive drawings and paintings of both author and machine.

This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged. Abstract . The works of Jorge Luis Borges and Paul Auster seem to follow the rules of Quantum Theory. The present article studies a number of perspectives and coincidences in their oeuvre, especially a quality we have named “inherent ubiquity” which highlights the importance and of authorship and identity and the appearance of blue stones to mark the doors leading to new dimensions on the works of both authors. Keywords: Jorge L. Borges, Paul Auster, Authorship and Identity, Quantum Theory, Inherent Ubiquity, Blue Stones. Quantum Theory has ruled the scientific milieu for decades now, but it is not only for science that Quantum Theory makes sense. Literary critics have surrendered to its logic as a unique way to interpret literature because the world we live and write in is one and the same; it forms part of a whole. Although this article does not aim to analyze Quantum Theory, we would like to make a short summary of its basis in order to shape the arena we are stepping into. In 1982 a famous experiment undertaken by Alain Aspect proved that a very large percentage of the polarization angles of photons emitted by a laser beam was identical, which meant that particles necessarily communicate their position so that each photon’s orientation can parallel that of the one that serves as its pair.
