The literary science as de-facement. Problem of double authorship in Tadeusz Rachwał and Tadeusz Sławek's texts
Abstract
The essay is an attempt of rethinking a mode of authorship in literary science discourse of
Tadeusz Rachwał and Tadeusz Sławek. Their texts is being compared with G. Deleuze and
F. Guattari's method of collective writing and interpreted according to theories of J. Derrida, P. de
Man and M. Foucault. Rachwał and Sławek's strategy of double authorship (which is not the
same as traditional co-authorship) underlines the impossibility of recognition who is speaking in
the text; therefore their collective books may be understood as a kind of performing theses which
they contain (e.g. connected with poststructuralist "death of author" or a poet and God's mystical
co-writing). Furthermore, double authorship leaves its marks on structure of text. We can see a lot
of techniques which make Rachwał and Sławek's texts more complicated, e.g. fragmentary style
of writing, using different types of typography and even creating an elements of visual poetry.
These experiments and a new way of these texts' being in academic public sphere make them
rather ethical than scientific - the ethic qualities and poetic function seem to be more important
than the science typical cognitive functions. Because of unceasing underlining a linguistic aspect,
the texts of Rachwał and Sławek may be read as examples of rhetorical type of ethic criticism.
Not only do they ask about a significance of primary ethical ideas like friendship, community or
responsibility, but also about an existence of category of author in literary studies after linguistic turn.
