La littérature comme « élargissement des formes de vie »
Literature as an “Enlargement of Forms of Life”

Summary/Abstract: It is now the animal but still the stone that inhabit the world, from which it is to think afresh a “wider parliament” (Macé), a “parliament of things” (Latour). On the basis of the notion of form, and more specifically of “forms of life” (Wittgenstein, Adorno), we propose to tackle the question of planetarity in and with Marielle Macé, Jean-Marie Gleize and Jean-Christophe Bailly’s texts. If they can’t respond to any generic definition – between the essay and poetry – they reinvest the question of politics, crossing ecology and ethics: in the wake of Rancière Policy of Literature, it is, as Jean-Christophe Bailly and Marielle Macé have committed us to do, to seize literature as a “radical enlargement of forms of life” (Macé).
