Critical Fabulation_different bodies

Saidiya Hartman (*1961), Amerikanische Literaturwissenschaftlerin
Zum Begriff «critical fabulation»:
“By playing with and rearranging the basic elements of the story, by re-presenting the sequence of events in divergent stories and from contested points of view, I have attempted to jeopardize the status of the event, to displace the received or authorized account, and to imagine what might have happened or might have been said or might have been done.”
(Hartman: «Venus in two Acts», in small axe 26, June 2008, p 1–14, p.11)

«Historical archives are sites of violence, omitting or erasing the voices of the marginalized. To counter this archival silence, Saidiya Hartman (2008) has proposed critical fabulation as a method of retelling the past that »troubles the line between history and imagination». Zit. n. Critical Fabulation: Re-narrating History Against the Archival Grain, Historikerinnen Netzwerk Schweiz.

Slavery, Critical Fabulation verbindet sich mit Monster–Hauntings
und nicht mit den stummen Avantgardistinnen der 1960er

Critical Fabulation ←→ desirable past
Critical Fabulation am Firmament: don’t close the gap
„Her inclusion in «Venus» of the narratives omitted in Lose Your Mother, with the caveat that such narratives push beyond the boundaries of the archive, leads to the concept of narrative restraint, «the refusal to fill in the gaps and provide closure.»
(Hartmann 2008:12 / Wikipedia)

different bodies
ob im Zug, der Verspätung hat
beim Interview im TV (mit Denis Schenk)
bei sich zuhause, das sind → different bodies.

(psycho)analytisch: Sprache = Bewusstsein vergl mit
channeling: Vertrauen statt Bewusstsein (?)

Impro = different body business
zu oft nach dem Konzert den Rückstoss nicht abfangen können
leer ausgegangen, destruktive Kräfte
