Abstract
The great reception of poststructuralism in the late 20th century by the intellectual field instilled a terrible fear of essentialism and offered representation, language, speech, hermeneutics, sense and significance as ways of fighting it. The 21st century has witnessed a speculative turn that is willing to dispute the hegemony of the linguistic turn. This work intends to briefly present various conceptual tools that mark the limits of representation ?the ominous, the abject, the positive difference, agency and drive. All of them redirect us to the notion of radical alterity as an attempt to figure the affective force that escapes the possiblity of being shaped and tamed by language. Bill Brandt contributes the vertebral axis of our proposed path, since his photographs –and visual arts in general– hold a privileged position when it comes to arousing affectations originating from the power of that which in its presentation is impossible to be represented.
