| Artiklen er på 26 sider og findes i Expectations. In the article »A Story We Are Part of«, Jon Helt Haarder pays attention to the still more widespread cross-media phenomenon of self-representation with an increased awareness of the aesthetic and theatrical possibilities in biographical reference. Haarder suggests that the phenomenon should considered a new ‘-ism’ and labels it ‘performativebiographism’ with reference |
to J.L. Austin’s term for »doing things with words«. Using Bret Easton Ellis’ Lunar Park (2005) as an example, Haarder introduces the key characteristics of this performative biographism, before applying the concept in a reading of the Norwegian writer Karl Ove Knausgård’s enormous autobiographical novel Min kamp 1-6 (2009 ff., My Struggle). |
