Does writing itself constitute some political
ideology? If so, how so?
I would like to give an answer to this particular point, if Regina allows
me to.
Roland Barthes used to say that all the languages are authoritarian. Maybe
it is not true to the whole range of worlds's idioms. But certainly the
Western syntax is constructed over an authoritarian conception, based on
the relation Subject - object - complements (in this order and nothing
other). This idea was fully developed by Décio Pignatari in Brazil but also
aroused through other rehearsers in the field of Semiotics.
On the other hand, there is a pop song in Brasil (sung by Roberto Carlos)
that says: everything is allright/ like 2+2=5
