A escrita de Derrida: notas sobre o modelo freudiano de linguagem

Fiction is generally understood to be a fascinating, yet somehow deficient affair, merely derivative of reality. What if we could, instead, come up with an affirmative approach that takes stories seriously in their capacity to bring forth a substance of their own? Iconic texts such as Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and its numerous adaptations stubbornly resist our attempts to classify them as mere representations of reality. Friederike Danebrock shows how these texts insist that we take them seriously as agents and interlocutors in our world- and culture-making activities. Drawing on this analysis, she develops a theory of narrative fiction as a generative practice.

There are a number of people without whose support, kindness, and enthusiasm this would have been a very different book (if one at all).I am grateful for the financial support that I received for three years in the form of a Ph.D. scholarship by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft which, crucially, included funding for research trips to the National Theatre Archive, London, and to Geneva for Mary Shelley's Frankenstein manuscripts. The Graduiertenkolleg "Materialität und Produktion" at Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf provided numerous opportunities to test out my ideas, and I would like to thank all of its members for their input and interest.I would like to express my appreciation and gratitude to the Messe Düsseldorf GmbH and to the Universitäts-und Landesbibliothek Düsseldorf for the additional funding that I received. Roger Lüdeke's support as first advisor to my Ph.D. thesis has been invaluable. I would like to offer my heartfelt thanks for the curiosity, attentiveness, and precision with which he has engaged with the numerous drafts, and the often peculiar ideas expressed therein, which I threw at him over the years. Vittoria Borsò has provided inspiration and intellectual mentorship long before she officially stepped in as second advisor; but I would especially like to thank her for the generosity and spontaneity with which she took on the role officially -and on rather short notice, too. Reinhold Görling has accompanied the project in its early stages, and I am likewise grateful to him for his ideas and useful suggestions.
