ÉCRITURE ET SUBJECTIVITÉ CHEZ GEORGES DIDI-HUBERMAN : UNE LECTURE AU PRISME DE L’AUTOTHÉORIE
WRITING AND SUBJECTIVITY IN GEORGES DIDI-HUBERMAN’S WORK. A READING THROUGH THE LENS OF AUTOTHEORY

Summary/Abstract: Writing and Subjectivity in Georges Didi-Huberman’s Work. A Reading through the Lens of Autotheory. This article explores the autotheoretical dimension of Georges Didi-Huberman’s work through certain methodological, thematic and stylistic aspects of his writing. Drawing on several of his works – Aperçues (2018), a diary “in disarray” and “without continuity”, which unfolds as “an original self-portrait without a single face”; Pour commencer encore (2019), a dialogue with Philippe Roux, which links the theoretical to the biographical and constitutes itself as “an unprecedented self-portrait”; and Tables de montage (2023), an exhibition of his working files presented as a new way of talking about oneself –, the analysis is built around three main axes: modes of emergence of the “I”, to better grasp the braiding of subjectivity and otherness in the construction of knowledge; the gaze as autothoretical modality, to show how the relationship between sensory experience and conceptual elaboration is constructed; and montage as autotheorical apparatus, to examine the discursive forms that translate the movement of thought.
