Alinguistic (Abdelfattah Kilito)

Authors: Yasser Elhariry;

Alinguistic (Abdelfattah Kilito)

Abstract

Secrecy, the unspeakable, apocrypha, indecipherability, and silence are at the heart of linguistic theories and reflections on reading and writing formulated by an entire generation of continental philosophers and contemporary French and francophone writers. Since the 1980s, Abdelfattah Kilito's thought has persistently probed the intersections between the meaning of literature –the idea of literature as embroiled with the limits and thresholds of linguistic expression–and a poetics of the literary "assemblage" ( dispositif ) that produces and questions knowledge. I argue that in the short story "La bibliotheque" (1998), Kilito illustrates for the reader how the "alinguistic" dwells at the thresholds of the known, a literary secret between the silenced and the declared, the invisible and the written. Le secret, l'indicible, l'apocryphe, l'indechiffrable, le silence : ces lieux sont au cœur des theories linguistiques et des reflexions autour de la lecture et de l'ecriture formulees par une generation entiere de philosophes continentaux et d'ecrivains francais et francophones. Depuis les annees 1980, Abdelfattah Kilito n'a cesse de s'interroger sur les croisements entre le sens de la litterature –l'idee d'une litterature a la recherche des limites et des seuils de l'expression linguistique – et la mise en œuvre poetique d'un dispositif litteraire qui cree du savoir tout en le mettant en question. Dans sa nouvelle intitulee « La bibliotheque » (1998), Kilito utilise un dispositif que l'on propose de nommer l'« alinguistique », un secret litteraire qui, au seuil du connu, oscille entre le dit et le non-dit, l'invisible et l'ecrit.
