This paper poses the question on how to approach texts rooted in the experience of psychic suffering in relation to the concepts of “testimony”, “author” and “writing”. The selected literary texts are: a group of poems written by the Italian poet Alda Merini and 4.48 Psychosis, a play written by the English playwright Sarah Kane. In these texts, the poetic speaker experiences a desubjectivation produced by highly invasive psychiatric procedures. These texts account for this experience (Benjamin) and establish themselves as healthy practices (Deleuze). By doing so, they do not function as instances of resubjectivation; instead, they retain the oscillation between resubjectivation and desubjectivation. En textos literarios que presentan un yo poético constituido por un aparato psíquico sufriente, la escritura se presenta como escenario de la oscilación entre la subjetivación y la desubjetivación. Se parte de la pregunta de cómo abordar textos anclados en la experiencia del sufrimiento psíquico en relación con los conceptos de “testimonio”, “autor” y “escritura”. Los textos literarios seleccionados son: un corpus de poemas de la poeta italiana Alda Merini y la obra de teatro 4.48 Psychosis, de la dramaturga inglesa Sarah Kane. En estos textos, el yo poético experimenta una desubjetivación producto de la experiencia con tratamientos psiquiátricos altamente invasivos. Los textos literarios analizados dan cuenta de esta experiencia [Benjamin] y se instauran como lugar de salud [Deleuze]; al hacerlo, no funcionan como instancia de resubjetivación, sino que mantienen presente la oscilación entre aquella y la desubjetivación.

In literary texts that present a poetic speaker whose psychic apparatus suffers, writing becomes the site for the oscillation between subjectivity and desubjectivity. This paper poses the question on how to approach texts rooted in the experience of psychic suffering in relation to the concepts of “testimony”, “author” and “writing”. The selected literary texts are: a group of poems written by the Italian poet Alda Merini and 4.48 Psychosis, a play written by the English playwright Sarah Kane. In these texts, the poetic speaker experiences a desubjectivation produced by highly invasive psychiatric procedures. These texts account for this experience (Benjamin) and establish themselves as healthy practices (Deleuze). By doing so, they do not function as instances of resubjectivation; instead, they retain the oscillation between resubjectivation and desubjectivation. |
