Antoine Wauters’s works challenge the link between politics – as a collective practice – and literature – an artistic form concerned with restoring a singular way of inhabiting the world. By working several times and in many ways on the notion of community, a dynamic construction site of links and ruptures, exclusions and inclusions – intimate and public at the same time – appears to question both the awareness of a loss and the desire to recompose a lost unity. Faced with conflicting situations, such as war and family relations, which Macro History and Micro History allow to emerge, writing would take charge – according to our hypothesis – of the staging of politics by exploring the resources of the lyrical subject as what a critical subject.

Abstract
Antoine Wauters’s works challenge the link between politics – as a collective practice – and literature – an artistic form concerned with restoring a singular way of inhabiting the world. By working several times and in many ways on the notion of community, a dynamic construction site of links and ruptures, exclusions and inclusions – intimate and public at the same time – appears to question both the awareness of a loss and the desire to recompose a lost unity. Faced with conflicting situations, such as war and family relations, which Macro History and Micro History allow to emerge, writing would take charge – according to our hypothesis – of the staging of politics by exploring the resources of the lyrical subject as what a critical subject.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
