Abstract

The logic which governs the present essay takes its orientation from the specific context of its composition and presentation. This context involves an event and a topic: an academic conference held by the Society for Literature and Science, its theme “Literature and Science as Modes of Expression”. At issue here are those questions surrounding what Foucault has called a discursive practice — questions of concept formation and their objects, questions of legitimacy and employment, questions of the speaking subject and its enunciations. In the particular case of this conference all such questions coalesce in a unique way; for here the event of the conference is its topic: what is being asked is the possibility of a new discursive practice or discursive formation ‘between’ those of science and literature, which necessarily implies or even requires that these disciplines be viewed as having a common ground.
