i think it was - i am writing now (in my own work) about how genres write
identification n (discourse interpellelates a psychic subjectification:
academic authority invariably begging: "punish me! punish ME!!')
,
and how discourse reinvents subjectification,
how authorized speech practices author identity - i thought your
observation
was useful, actually
- observations on genre are, i think generalizable to every text, as
everty text conforms
to recognizable genres
as a way to identify/subjectify the self - the very act of "read ME" is
a signification
of a social -material failure - the desires that genre enables
are precisely the constraints that ideologies impose - thus, the authority
of the academic
and the irony of my own
disclosure of closure, authorized only in the legitimate references to
others.
i found your question highly provocative, judy.
thanks
