Deep Crisis

The article is devoted to the four letters written by Ausonius to Paulinus of Nola before the latter left Aquitania in 389 changing his style of life and provo­king the deep crisis of their intimate friendship (Epist. 17-20, ed. R.P.H. Green). Ausonius writes to his pupil, admirer and friend about literary theory and practice, thanks for the gifts and favours, asks for help in an hour of need, sends him new year’s wishes. The exchange of letters provided to the famous befriended poets an opportunity to participate in the jolly literary games and to share mutual respect, admiration and love.

This first essay in the volume constitutes a substantial and wide-ranging introduction to this neglected topic, establishing the importance of untranslated fragments in modernist writing. The chapter expounds the complexities of the term ‘non-translation’, differentiating the practice from multilingualism, reading it alongside modern translation theory and practice. It situates modernist non-translation among a number of crucial contexts in intellectual history and literary theory: the ‘linguistic turn’ explored by contemporary philosophers, linguists, literary theorists, and critics; and examines broader sociopolitical issues relating to nationalism and language, the rise of English as an (imperial) global language, and the standardization of English. This introduction foregrounds key hermeneutical difficulties surrounding untranslatability and concerning reading or interpreting modernist non-translation, thus preparing the ground for the following chapters.

Aesthetic Judgments

The article aims to determine the relation between literary theory and the analytic philosophy of literature. The former is understood mostly as a body of ideologically and culturally focused normative reading strategies, and the latter as an inquiry into the foundations, assumptions and aims of reading and appreciating works of literature. Although at fi rst it might seem that both approaches seem radically incompatible, a closer inspection reveals that, in some cases, they are complementary, while, in others, the relation is more hierarchical, with aesthetic judgments being logically primary to theory-driven research. At the same time, literary theory is always partly a philosophy of literature, as no theoretical inquiry is free from basic aesthetic considerations on the nature of meaning, authorship, or value judgments. In the end, radically anti-theoretical stances of neopragmatists, literary darwinists, or some analytic aestheticians are misguided to the extent that what impedes or suppresses certain types of research in the humanities is literary theory’s institutionally dominant position, rather than its claims, or the type of research it encourages.
