Mnemosyne o la costruzione del senso n° 15 – 2022

Managing editor Beatrice Barbalato

Defining excess based on the conception of the common good has been a constant parameter overtime. It was in the 20 th century that the individual openly laid claim to the right to cross the socalled permitted boundaries and consider excess as a key element of cogito (Camus A, The Rebel, 1951). Nietzsche, Bataille, Debord, among others, theorized excess as a distinctive trait of an individual who chooses to act with an anti-utilitarian purpose, someone who constructs themself in their being on earth, through a know-how that fulfils them in a tangible, concrete manner, outside abstract postulates (music and dance for Nietzsche, writing for Perec, cinema for Godard, and so on). With the collapse of the myth of a universe in which virtue and ethic were presupposed, and which availed of a « grammar », the individual in complete solitude considers the gratuitous, waste, a key feature of an intemporal existence (that is, noncausal) and without constraints.
