Werner Hamacher and the Motion of Contingency
Keywords:
Hamacher, contingency, afformative, ammesianic, CelanAbstract
This article proposes an approach to the problem of contingency in Werner Hamacher. To follow its movement, the following stations are covered: (1) “sketch” as art of contingency and as “afformative” writing event; (2) the political trait of his gesture, exposed in the debates on democracy to come and the university; (3) his definition of the contingent as “touch of a No” and the structure of (dis)encounter; (4) his reading of Celan and the notion of nihil donans; (5) the “infra-contingency” of the opportunities; (6) the dignity of the contingent and the danger of essentializing it; (7) the contingency of a time to come, in the light of its “affuturation” and the “ammesianic”.
