Emanationist Spell (with Clarice Lispector)

 

ABSTRACT

This paper delves into writings of Brazilian author Clarice Lispector (1920–1977) and their oracular, “spellular,” and emanationist modalities. The analysis itself follows the same axiomatic-enigmatic style of the writer under consideration. The treatment of the writer as an ancient sibyl figure reveals a very specific subterranean monism, which is a sui generis contribution to this central philosophical problem. The focus of the paper is on matters of style and their aesthetic and cosmological consequences.
