Performances of objects : responsibilities of object

For Žižek, thought comes from trauma, a trauma that forces us to think, a contact with the real that makes symbolic and the imaginary derailed. Yet there is a mystery in Žižek's performativity. He starts from texts or contemporaneous situations, but not from the trauma which forces to think. He explains the symbolic thanks to other symbolic, connects texts, cultural artifacts and observations but the contact with the trauma remains hidden. This text questions Žižek's rebellion of the self against the self, against the symbolic, against self delusion, in the opacity of one's condition, with the work of Mathieu Brosseau, a French poet, one of whose books was prefaced by Jean-Luc Nancy. In terms of performativity, we oppose two strategies. We can in the manner of Žižek resist the already written symbolic by more symbolic, or a rearrangement of the symbolic (Because there is no way back), and that allows one not to enter in contact with the real that forces one to think, one's traumas (or at least keep them in reserve, not expressed, not symbolized) or we can try to find the trace of a more original than the symbolic or one that blurs / make stutter the symbolic as in the poetry of Brosseau.
