"First published in English by Editions Caractaeres, Paris, in 2000"--Title page verso.
A theoretical, mythopoetic work, Tractatüus Philosophiká-Poeticüus uses various poetic, narrative and dramatic techniques and devices to fashion a new scriptoral genre, one that is engaged with critical discourses, even while it reads like a labyrinthine story. An aesthetic theory which depicts the path of writing through the deployment of a group of anonymous wanderers and a constantly metamorphosing ‘I’, Tractatüus Philosophiká-Poeticüus uses the parameters and the dynamics of the reading experience to construct this treatise on poetics. A work that defies convenient categorisation and tackles, through formal and stylistic innovations, the very possibilities and limits of literature.
