Rezzori’s Writing of the Self

Rezzori’s Writing of the Self

Abstract

Having witnessed the major geopolitical events of the first half of the 20th century (the fall of the Habsburg Empire, the Second World War, the Anschluss and the Nuremberg Trials), Rezzori explores the outlines of his own identity through his autobiographical writing. He aims to investigate the conditions that are necessary for asserting an individual voice in a reality characterised by a process of dislocation and disintegration, in which the subject is faced with its own decentralisation and deterritorialisation. Far from wallowing in pessimism, Rezzori confronts the crevices of his self in his autobiographical writing, while at the same time questioning the methods of such writing. In order to embrace the element of negativity that his self comprises, the author bases his autobiographical writing, in both its hypothetical and referential forms, on a unique memorial strategy: that of Epochenverschleppung. This places Rezzori in an anachronistic position without cutting him off from the present as it challenges him to examine past losses critically in the light of the present. By exploring the fissures in his identity in a renewed autobiographical space, Rezzori leaves his own imprint and thereby counteracts the obliterating power of History.

Témoin des principaux événements géopolitiques de la première moitié du XXème siècle (l’effondrement de l’empire habsbourgeois, la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l’Anschluss et le procès de Nuremberg), Rezzori examine les contours de son identité dans le cadre des écritures de soi. Son but est d’interroger les conditions nécessaires à l’affirmation d’une voix individuelle alors que la réalité est entraînée dans un inexorable processus de dislocation et d’hétérogénéisation et qu’elle confronte le sujet à l’épreuve du décentrement et de la déterritorialisation. Loin de céder au pessimisme, Rezzori assume ses fêlures grâce à l’écriture autobiographique dont il remet en cause les modalités. Pour qu’elle intègre la part de négativité inhérente à son moi, l’auteur la fonde sur une stratégie mémorielle singulière : celle de l’Epochenverschleppung. Cette dernière le place dans une position anachronique, sans le couper du présent parce qu’elle l’oblige à sonder de manière critique les pertes endurées à la lumière du présent. Écrire ses déchirures dans un espace autobiographique renouvelé permet à Rezzori de laisser des traces et de résister ainsi au pouvoir d’effacement de l’Histoire.
