Abstract
TORRES SANCHEZ, RAYIV DAVID. THE WITHDRAWAL OF PRESENCE LANGUAGE AND NEGATIVITY IN THE PHILOSOPHY OF MAURICE BLANCHOT. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2019, vol.68, n.169, pp.255-278. ISSN 0120-0062. https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v68n169.63305.
The article analyzes the relation between writing and presence in the work of Maurice Blanchot and defines the textual grounds of presence in the order of literature, using Michel Foucault's concepts of "literary space" and the "thought of the outside" as theoretical referents. While the objective of examining that relation is to deconstruct the link between presence and language, Blanchot leads us to consider that continuity in terms of a never complete or fulfilled presence that remains as discontinuity, as promise and absence that must be preserved.
Keywords : M. Blanchot; M. Foucault; language; negativity; presence.
