how many times can you spot the letter "o" in:
the essay characterizes theory as a new, semi-autonomous and intransitive discursive formation. its utterly contradictory nature is presented through theory�s promises of freedom in relation to objects of study, approaches and subjective positions. these promises, however, are not fulfilled, and must coexist with their opposites: narrow horizons of things, methodologies and public debates. the text ends with considerations on the place of literature in theoretical discourse. and again, a contradiction can be seen at work, for if theory does put literature in a state of crisis, all important theoreticians have excelled in literary readings.
