Caotic enumeration, affordances, Literary theory, Peter Khost, Caroline LevineAbstract
In the following work, we build upon Leo Spitzer’s critical efforts on chaotic enumeration to discuss one of his methodological premises: the neutrality of form. To do this, we will undertake a theoretical import from environmental psychology: the concept of affordance. This category will allow us to delve into literary theoretical projects that have already employed this concept, in order to evaluate them. Finally, we will use a relational and materialist concept of affordances to reinterpret classic literary readings, including, toward the end, chaotic enumeration
