主权的拓扑学,或类比的政治——关于阿甘本《牲人》的一则笔记
Topology of Sovereignty, or the Politics of Analogy: A Note on Giorgio Agamben's Homo Sacer
-
摘要: 通过阅读阿甘本《牲人》对于施米特的主权论述的颇具生产性的发展和再阐释,本文认为阿甘本提出了一种主权的拓扑学,并将施米特的主权者的具体性和人格性消解在一种内部与外部的无区分空间中。而这一独特的拓扑学空间的构成,相当程度上取决于阿甘本对于类比的修辞性使用。通过重读阿甘本阅读的中世纪文学文本《狼人之歌》,本文试图表明,这一文本或许显示了对于类比的抵抗,并重新将这一拓扑学空间开放给一种人格性决断。Abstract: Through rereading Giorgio Agamben's productive development and reinterpretation of Carl Schmitt's arguments on sovereignty, this essay argues that in Homo Sacer Agamben employs a topology of sovereignty, as a space of indistinction between inside and outside, a space into which the sovereign's concreteness is dissolved. This idiosyncratic topological space of sovereignty, however, hinges upon Agamben's rhetorical use of analogies. Through introducing and rereading a medieval literary text, Mary de France's Bisclavret, the essay shows the extent to which the logic of analogy could be resisted and the topological space reopened for personal action.
