what or who is 'the woman'
what or who is 'the lover'
?
According to Lilar, the primordial significances of love are expressed
through a sort of ceremonial that the lover extends to the woman. This
ritual, when imprinted with violence and outrage, only ceases to be
wounding if acted out as a theatre play and when - in the
disinterestedness of the play - it is reminiscent of primordial
behaviours.
