CONSTITUTING A DISPERSIVE SUBJECT IN RASTKO PETROVIC’ S NOVEL “PEOPLE TALK”

Abstract

This work is about re-questioning the way a language speaks, by asuming the existence of sex and sexuality in speach. Through confessions of little and ordinary people, under the veil of government-controled admissions, tragic destinies are revealed as consequences of an unfulfilled love, desires, hopes, aspirations which, being as they are, bring about the constituting of a dispersive subject. By overcoming the repressed within oneself, by revealing the secrets and speaking publicly about everything that has made him to withdraw deeply, the subject, instead of consolidating one’s own identity, faced with the impossibility to provide resistance which will make fundamental changes in an imposed order, eludes from oneself, and therefore drops out and becomes stratified.
