Semanario Brecha, Montevideo, Uruguay.Edición April 22 2005.Por humanidadesEl needed by this perentorioAlma Bolón / Carlos Hipogrosso / Fernando Pesce tradition of dialogue between master and slave (or raised), there is one particularly enigmatic. At the beginning of each verse of the text in verse, the master orders the slave to go quickly, something with which the slave complies swiftly. The master then informs the slave to his will, for example, attend a banquet. The slave not only agrees, but encourages the master in business, providing excellent reasons. But suddenly, the master declares its intention to abandon the project announced. And the slave, without hesitation, with couples conviction, provided the master of reasons as good as opposed to those provided above. With this scheme, it happens a number of projects and disclaimers: go to the palace, to hunt, marry and found a home, and so on. For example: "- Slave! A my orders! - Here I am, master, here I am! - I rise! - Sure, love, sublévate, sublévate! If you do not revolting, how you will dress? And who will give you how to fill your belly? "And because no slave, I will not rise .- Do not rise up, love, do not rise up! The man who rises, they kill, flay him alive, you tear the eyes, caught and thrown in prison. "1Some of the enigmas posed by this dialogue are related to their membership in the cuneiform literature, Mesopotamian, recorded on tablets clay, buried for millennia in unsuitable soil to preserve without damage. It is remotely conceivable "the divine maze of effects and causes," in the words of Borges, which allowed those replicas crossed, almost intact, the more than three thousand years Assyriologists atribuyen.Restringiéndonos them sensitive to some causes , domestic, could write: if the dialogue is read today on this page is because there was a weekly Montevideo hoped that the publication of the French translation of a text originally composed and recorded in Akkadian cuneiform not be sufficient reason to deserted readers of the newspaper a firm promise to never buy or read it on borrowed time. Also, if this is read here today is because there was a man, Jean Bottéro, who dedicated his life to uncover the mysteries that were scattered in hundreds of thousands of tablets, for the land that the United States was determined to save, and Mesopotamia, the current minimum Irak.Ambas labyrinth causes of that divine unites us almost four times the ancient text could be considered causes belonging to the universe of the humanities, understood as a constellation of meanings that allows us to resist and present. "We lack resistance to the present ", found Deleuze. "Being of 'his time' is a must. But it is a duty, something must for anyone who wants to progress and rise-not your time, "advised Susan Sontag.2" To be modern is to be contemporary, be now all we are fatally. Nobody, outside of a Wells dreamed adventurer has discovered the art of living in the future or the past. No non-work time, "said Borges.3" We did not leave the closure which can outline time, "mused Derrida.4Sin But fortunately, the humanities are the constellation of meanings that organized disciplinary philosophy, history points, we provide ways of resistance to this, pathways of resistance to this urgent condition present. Resist the imperative of this is to resist what it is final, which brooks no delay, which kills, which kills, trapping (which takes, according to the variant proposed by Corominas mainland) .5 The resistance is not only at present. Also, and above all, is at present, in absorbing and all-encompassing effort. Humanities fragment that totality, by drawing gaps and loopholes for those who lean to look: they provide a frame of intelligibility, which we understand and can explain and / or perplexing. Away from the constraints of the here and now, humanities enable us out of context, but more is not, at times, to recontextualizing dilemmas as close as the Assyrian master over three thousand years atrás.Puede feared that the shortfall of humanistic studies and the over-representation of what is presented as 'present' will do that in a short time, readers willing or not to speculate or wonder at the nearness of the far-away hot. 1.
