CHAPTER 1 (pag. 21)

 

A university professor explains what a character is

 

1)   There is no such thing as the "self">>>> a finite unique soul of essence that constitutes a person's identity.

 

2)   There is only a subject position in a infinite web of discourses (power, sex, family, science, religion, poetry...)>>>> l'uomo è soggetto ai discorsi culturali di cui fa parte (lingua>> discorsi>> cultura).

 

3) There is no such thing as an author.
