Always historicize!—Fredric Jameson, The Political UnconsciousEurocentricity is a choice, not a viewpoint imposed by history. There are roads out of antiquity that do not lead to the Renaissance; and although none avoids eventual contact with the modern West's technological domination, the rapidly changing balance of power in our world is forcing even Western scholars to pay more attention to non-Latin perspectives on the past.—Garth Fowden, Empire to CommonwealthThe last decade or so has seen an explosion of interest in “mediterranean studies.” a half century after the original publication of Fernand Braudel's La Méditerranée et le monde méditerranéen à l'époque de Philippe II (1949), scholars in a number of disciplines have once again found the Mediterranean a productive category of analysis, as evidenced in a proliferation of conferences, edited volumes, journals, and study centers. This renewal of Mediterranean studies is part of an upsurge of interest in “oceanic studies,” or, alternatively, “the new thalassology” In recent years, as Kären Wigen writes,[h]istorians of science have documented the discovery of longitude and the plumbing of underwater depths; historians of ideas have mapped the conceptual geographies of beaches, oceans, and islands; historians of labor and radical politics have drawn arresting new portraits of maritime workers and pirates; historians of business have tracked maritime commerce; historians of the environment have probed marine and island ecologies; and historians of colonial regimes and anticolonial movements alike have asserted the importance of maritime arenas of interaction. (717)In the field of medieval literature, on the other hand, “Mediterranean studies” has found much less purchase. An MLA database search for the keywords “Mediterranean” and “medieval” or “Middle Ages” yields a total of thirty-two entries, over half of which treat topics in intellectual or art history. Taking that asymmetry as a point of departure, this essay explores the different ways “medieval Mediterranean literature” might be conceived; how it would relate to the study of the medieval Mediterranean in other disciplines; and what linguistic, thematic, and theoretical modifications or challenges it would offer to the field of literature as currently configured.

La premisa de Fredric Jameson, “¡Historicemos siempre!”, en The Political Unconscious. Narrative as a Socially Simbolic Act, será el punto de partida para el análisis del libro de relatos Cambio de armas de la escritora argentina Luisa Valenzuela. Según Jameson, todo texto es político en el sentido de que busca resolver en el espacio de la ficción una contradicción existente en la realidad social y, por ende, su deseo es intervenir en la Historia. La intención del presente estudio es justamente examinar el subtexto que se deriva de la fi gura del cuerpo femenino como espacio textual para construir una lectura alegórica de la nación y demostrar cómo la construcción de esta alegoría permite cuestionar el discurso oficial sobre la Historia que surge desde los espacios de poder.

In his 1981 book, The Political Unconscious: Narrative as a Socially Symbolic Act, Fredric Jameson elaborated an influential position on ideology and critique. Jameson stressed the priority of political interpretation, arguing that “the political interpretation of literary texts … [is] the absolute horizon of all reading and all interpretation.” After nearly forty years, we return to this text, situating it within Jameson’s long career, in order to explore form, figuration, and utopia. Does Jameson provide a series of meditations on last philosophy?

AbstractThis article reviews the history and politics of the English foreign act of State and non-justiciability doctrines in light of recent judgments in Belhaj and Rahmatullah. It argues that the doctrines have a political unconscious—a term borrowed from literary theorist Fredric Jameson—and that an appreciation of this should inform the Supreme Court's approach to the forthcoming appeals.
