Approach and question. Approach to question. The critical practice proceeds in a double movement towards multiple poles - objects or subjects - that are only accessible as text - across the text. Essentially a movement across fields of forces, the intertext resists totalitarian impulses and totalitarian politics as it never allows privileged objects or subjects to ossify in a position of power. Host and parasite, the critical gaze is always prone to crossing boundaries, confusing reference, (mis)appropriating - thus multiplying the voices of the text.
