Tropic of Cancer: The Word Becoming Flesh

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The paper examines how Tropic of Cancer, as a textual product of modernity, strives to kill the reader's "life-in-death", if the reader is willing to suspend his or her hermeneutics of suspicion and approach Cancer through the hermeneutics of hunger (D.Soelle). This will be examined from the linguistic, anthropological and theological vantage point of oral theory as well as through the contribution of Marcel Jousse (1886-1961) who understood parallelism as a bodily mnemonic aid of oral cultures, embedded in the symmetrical structure of the human body, breath and walk. As I will argue, the structural parallelism in Tropic of Cancer is accompanied by the pedagogic use of obscenity, designed to make the reader laugh, feel their body, and thus "wed ideasto action". The prevalent present tense and the strong I also strengthen the mimetic and kinetic qualities of the text. The composition of Cancer from earlier notes, letters and jottings is also in some respects analogous to the oral bard
