ABSTRACT

Teresa Dovey once advocated that writers inhabit genres and forms and ideological positions as hermit crabs inhabit shells. In this paper, I position the writer as ‘hermit crab’ suggesting a position of displacement that is generative. From this position, a palimpsestic approach to writing can work as a liberating force, enabling an author to move between genres, forms and ideological positions, resulting in fruitful experimentation, innovation and new knowledge. As a writer of books across a range of genres, I have been inspired by J.M. Coetzee and Umberto Eco, both of whom, I propose, use this (Barthesian) atopic process to interrogate, innovate and stimulate their writing praxis.

Atopia:作家如寄居蟹

摘要

Teresa Dovey 曾主张作家栖息于流派、形式和意识形态,就像寄居蟹栖息在贝壳中一样。在这篇论文中,我将作者定位为“寄居蟹”,暗示了一种生成性位移的位置。从这个位置来看,重写的写作方法可以作为一种解放力量,使作者能够在体裁、形式和意识形态立场之间移动,从而产生富有成效的实验、创新和新知识。作为跨体裁书籍的作者,我受到了 JM Coetzee 和 Umberto Eco 的启发,我建议他们都使用这种(Barthesian)特应性过程来询问、创新和激发他们的写作实践。
