If I Can Dance

2013-10-09T09:14:00.002-03:00

Since 2006 If I Can’t Dance has organized reading groups on feminism (2006-2008), masquerade (2008-2010) and affect (2010 – 2012). Taking as point of departure a spirit of exchange and open-ended discussion, the Reading Group aims to facilitate a space for in-depth debate, unexpected links and creative disagreement.

The Reading Group upholds the following set of rules:

In the spirit of an open-ended discussion:
1) There is no audience. We do not need to ‘perform’ this reading group.

2) You do not need to speak from a fixed position. You are not here as a representative of anything or anyone else.

3) Say anything… This is all about making the u-turns needed to discover common points of reference.

Standard Average European (SAE) is a concept introduced by Benjamin Whorf to group the modern Indo-European languages of Europe. Whorf argued that these languages were characterized by a number of grammatical similarities, which made them different from many of the world's other languages. His point was to argue that the disproportionate degree of knowledge of SAE languages biased linguists towards considering grammatical forms to be highly natural or even universal, when in fact they were peculiar to the SAE language group.

In Whorf's most famous example he contrasted what he called the SAE tense system which contrasts past, present and future tenses with that of Hopi, which Whorf analyzed as being based on a distinction not of tense, but on distinguishing things that have in fact occurred (arealis mood encompassing SAE past and present) as opposed to things that have as yet not occurred, but which may or may not occur in the future (irrealis mood). The accuracy of Whorf's analysis of Hopi tense has later been a point of controversy in linguistics.

Whorf likely considered Romance and West Germanic to form the core of the SAE, i.e. the literary languages of Europe which have seen substantial cultural influence from Latin during the medieval period. The North Germanic and Balto-Slavic languages tend to be more peripheral members.

Alexander Gode, who was instrumental in the development of Interlingua, characterized this language as "Standard Average European".^[1]The Romance, Germanic, and Slavic control languages of Interlingua are reflective of the language groups most often included in the SAESprachbund.

Agradecimento – Wislawa Szymborska

Devo muito
aos que não amo.

O alívio de aceitar
que sejam mais próximos de outrem.

A alegria de não ser eu
o lobo de suas ovelhas.

A paz que tenho com eles
e a liberdade com eles,
isso o amor não pode dar
nem consegue tirar.

Não espero por eles
andando da janela à porta.
Paciente
quase como um relógio de sol,
entendo o que o amor não entende,
perdoo,
o que o amor nunca perdoaria.

Do encontro à carta
não se passa uma eternidade,
mas apenas alguns dias ou semanas.

As viagens com eles são sempre um sucesso,
os concertos assistidos,
as catedrais visitadas,
as paisagens claras.

E quando nos separam
sete colinas e rios
são colinas e rios
bem conhecidos dos mapas.

É mérito deles
eu viver em três dimensões,
num espaço sem lírica e sem retórica,
com um horizonte real porque móvel.

Eles próprios não veem
quanto carregam nas mãos vazias.

"Não lhes devo nada" -
diria o amor
sobre essa questão aberta.
