Abstract

I approach what I call journalistic philosophic quasi-poetry of Vilém Flusser in linkage with commentators and Flusser's productions of other genders and with texts of other authors - who Flusser mentioned, with whom he had any kind of relation or with whom it would be possible to propose some kind of relation from the problems approached here. The goal is to reflect about and from the relation between Philosophy, Literature and institution taking into consideration Flusser's specific time and place (the 1960s and 70s in São Paulo and the practices of Philosophy between IBF and USP, his experience in Brazil and of exile). The development of this reflection is subsequent to conversations with the following (but not exhausting): J. Derrida's reflections about the institution of Literature and about the reason of being of the university; F. Kittler considerations about how thought and Literature are determined by educational institutions; the double relation between subject and object as thought by the dialectic of absolute nothingness of Kyoto School; the relations between answerability and Menippean satire that work inside M. Bakhtin's thought; the ideas by W. Mignolo about borderthinking and by M. Selligman-Silva about an exile's Philosophy. (AU)
