A precursor: limiting the future, affirming particularity

Abstract

This chapter complicates the modernist concept of the new as the break from the past by investigating the logic of the precursor. The new is interpreted as a creative effect of repetition and differentiation and not as a break. The affirmation of the particular is an act of irresolution that is why it is linked to both new and the process of repetition.
