STRANGERS TO OURSELVES


Two quotes from Julia Kristeva:



1) ‘The foreigner comes in when the consciousness of my difference arises, and he disappears when we all acknowledge ourselves as foreigners, unamenable to bonds and communities.’

2) 'Without a home [the foreigner] disseminates on the contrary the actor’s paradox: multiplying masks and “false selves”, he is never completely true nor completely false’ ...

Is there anyone out there, a student of CULT 554 or not, who has something to say at this regard?
