Paraliterature Glossary A!

 Paraliterature Glossary gives discussions not of thing-ness "Korperding",but questions of non-thingified Being "Geistding"! "Paraliterature"?

 
 "Paraliterature"?As maybe got attentioned and disclosed by Jodey Castricano,that in the last thirty years,cryptominesis as a writing practice of Jacques Derrida's later works,which appearing with increasing frequency accompanying the living-dead,the revenant,the phantom and the crypt,along with their effects of haunting and mourning,such a practice of encryption in Derrida's writing bears traces of being "ghost-written",and such a cryptomimesis functions in terms of textual mime to produce,in part refer to as "Paraliterature",a hybrid of literature and criticism,art and science,in other names,cryptography or phantomime,since these terms draw attention to the uncanny dimensions of a writing practice that takes place as a ghost of crypt-effect of haunting and mourning.

 Applied Grammatology:Applied Grammatology,a book got written by Gregory Ulmer.

 Abjection:Abjection,is considered as the structuring principle in cryptomimesis.For the causes,Jodey Castricano give some explaination,that said:"...In fact,cryptomimesis approaches abjection because it concerns itself with the collapse,or the permeability,of the border between inside and outside,between attraction and repulsion.To this end,the tension between attraction and repulsion generate a writing that might be best thought of in terms of de/composition,since that word draws attention not only to death and to the decay that the crypt implies,but also to how cryptomimesis is a writing practice that is characterized by disintegration,by the breaking-up of language into its elements or constituents".And decompositon,got considered as the aesthetic principle behind cryptomimesis which has its affinity with Gothic "horror.".1

 address/a ghost and a crypt:"address" got used to describe the crypt's effect for it links the crypt,the phantom,haunting,and inheritance to writing and sending,These "correspondences" which determine the effects of the crypt in the unconscious of a subject or a text can be thought in terms of "postality" Derrida called in Envois,"postal maneuvering,relays,delay,anticipation,destination,telecommunicating network,the possibility,and therefore the fatal necessity of going astray,etc."2.What makes analysis difficult in either case(psychoanalysis and text analysis) is the crypt,Derrida ever refers explicitly to such difficulty:"When it's a text that one is trying to decipher or decrypt using[Abraham and Torok's theory of the crypt],or when one is looking for a ghost or a crypt in a text,then things get still more difficult,or let us say more novel.I say a ghost and a crypt:actually the theory of the "ghost" is not exactly the theory of the "crypt."It's even more complicated.Although it's also connected to the crypt,the ghost is more precisely the effect of another's crypt in my unconsciousness."3.

 Altered States of Consciousness:Any state which is significantly different from a normative waking beta wave state. The expression was coined by Charles Tart and describes induced changes in one's mental state, almost always temporary. A synonymous phrase is "altered states of awareness".

 Angels:An angel is a supernatural being found in many religions. In scripture, they typically act as messengers, as held by the three prominent monotheistic faiths, Christianity, Judaism and Islam.

 Apparition:An apparition is an appearance to a human of a ghost.

 Astral:Relating to a subtle body and plane of existence that coexist with and survive the death of the human physical body.

 Astral body:The astral body refers to the concept of a subtle body which exists alongside the physical body, as a vehicle of the soul or consciousness. It is usually understood as being of an emotional nature and, as such, it is equated to the desire body or emotional body.

 Astral plane:The astral plane, also called the astral world or desire world, is a plane of existence according to esoteric philosophies, some religious teachings and New Age thought.

 Astral Projection:Out-of-body experiences (OBEs) achieved either awake or via lucid dreaming, deep meditation, or use of psychotropics. The consciousness or soul has transferred into an astral body which moves in the astral plane.

 Aura:Energy field emanating from the surface of a person or object. This emanation is visualized as an outline of cascading color and may be held to represent soul vibrations, chakric emergence, or a reflection of surrounding energy fields.

 Automatic Writing:Automatic writing is the process of writing material that does not come from the conscious thoughts of the writer. The writer's hand forms the message, and the person is unaware of what will be written. It is sometimes done in a trance state. Other times the writer is aware (not in a trance) of their surroundings but not of the actions of their writing hand.

 anomalous:anomalous is a 'phenomenon of bordering',and it it within its terms of reference(a multiplicity,a population) that we can think in a novel manner the nature of demons and monsters.The anomalous resists schemas of classification,it has something of the "unnameable" and the "monstrous" about it--one could call it "the Outsider,"the "nameless horror",or "viroid life".Conceived in its most important sense,biophilosophically,the anomalous cannot be said to be either an individual or a species.It has to do with the movement of a multiplicity and of populations,definable neither by their elements nor by their centres of unification,but solely and strictly in terms of the number of dimensions and variations they enjoy.see also sorcerers,"as the anomalous may also be less than one,completely other than one;after all,more than one is two which is another one".

 absolute life:see the other of life,and for Derrida,absolute life would be absolute evil,the life that is fully present(1994:175).

 artificial unconscious:see structuring principle of incorporation.

 alterity:alterity,the uncany somewhere,as the site of alterity in which the crypt is already inhabited by another,but such an uncanny spacing is always already a condition of subjectivity.alterity or the uncanny,"nonpresence" of the other that enables the possibility of signification,that the possibility of signification enabled via the alterity or uncanny.

 animal becomings:animal becomings,as Explored by Deleuze,the existence of animal becomings are said to both traverse human beings and affect both animals and humans alike.Animal becomings got considered as maybe a "block of becoming",and with a neoevolutionism,animal becoming is redefined by populations instead of by characteristics,that is important.4.see also anomalous.

 4: see Spectropoiesis and Rhizomatics:Learning to Live with Death and Demons,III,Keith Ansell Pearson.Dr.Keith commented:in Deleuze's explores,"Animal becomings,it must be insisted upon,do not entail representation or imitation,simply because the becoming is situated on the molecular level of affect between particles of heterogeneous bodies,and not on the molar level of species and genus with its concentration on organs and their functions.It is for this reason that a becoming is said to produce only itself:'What is real is...the block of becoming,not the supposedly fixed terms through which that which becomes passes(Deleuze and Guattari 1980:291;1988:238,"Memories of Bergsonian").These becomings cannot be said to be evolutions if evolution is taken to be synonymous with descent and filiation.Becomings involve the coming into play of an order different than filiation,such as novel alliances found in symbiotic complexes:'If evolution includes any veritable becomings,it is in the domain of symbioses that bring into play beings of totally different scales and kingdoms,with no possible filiation'Deleuze and Guattari adopt a model of 'creative involution' by disassociating involution from regression(the move towards less differentiation) and equating it with the establishment of nonlinear blocks of becoming.This is what they call 'neoevolutionism' in which animal becomings involve the movement of populations:'...the animal is defined not by characteristics(specific,generic,etc.) but by populations that vary from milieu to milieu or within the same milieu;movement occurs not only or not primarily,by filiative productions but also by transversal communications between heterogeneous populations'(ibid.:292,239) '"
