Benjy’s Howl: From Symptom to Sinthome in William Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury by Maurice EBILEENI

“…Psychoanalytically, the absence of a reliable narrator creates a discursive space devoid of authority, not unlike the psychotic’s reality. Composed of multiple voices in the “stream-of-consciousness” narrative mode, The Sound and the Fury’s “parallactic” narrative structure suggests a context of psychosis in which the deeply retarded Benjy Compson’s unintelligible howl functions as a symptom – or rather, I will argue, as a sinthome – a word-concept from the later Lacan which I employ here to refer to that which organizes the excess of textual jouissance in the absence of a unifying, authoritative narrator. …”

Tamactún-Acalán: interpretación de una hegemonía política maya de los siglos xiv-xvi by Andrés Ciudad Ruiz, Alfonso Lacadena García-Gallo

“…Recently, new interpretations have posited the development of hegemonic states retaining many structural features of the preceding formations, but also exhibiting a territorial organization fastering the subordination of several autonomous territories under a same authority. This essay applies this last interpretation to the understanding of the political-territorial structure of the Mactun of Tamactún-Acalán in the 14th-16th centuries A.D., and tests its validity for other regions of the Maya Lowlands, from the beginning of the Classic period to the arrival of the Spaniards, highlighting the parallelisms with other political systems found in Mesoamerica at the time immediately preceding the Conquest.…”

A Santidade Enfurecida by Leandro Duarte Rust

“…The following pages consist of a study of such a case: around 1034 a quarrel opposed the high echelon of the Florentine bishopric to a portion of local monasticism filling in decades with reports of terrifying miracles, popular clamours, open challenges to the papacy and bloody disputes by legal authority. The historical analysis of this conflict articulates chronicles, cartulars, epistolary and diplomatic, guided by the hypothesis that the field of action of agents would have been affected by a singular factor: the unveiling of certain emotions shifted the geography of public prerogatives.…”
