1 No Higher Life : Bio-aesthetics in J. M. Coetzee’s Disgrace Carrie Rohman , 2014 single work criticism
— Appears in: Modern Fiction Studies , Fall vol. 60 no. 3 2014; (p. 562-578)
'This essay theorizes the aesthetic in J. M. Coetzee’s Disgrace as a tendency of the living-in-general through an emphasis on the protagonist’s devolving chamber opera. The bio-aesthetic in this articulation profoundly exceeds the domain of the human and should be viewed as a creaturely orientation of life to other life. The species barrier is therefore rendered porous through a becoming animal of art in the novel. This becoming leads the protagonist toward an eroticoartistic posture that is on the margins of a properly “human” world.' (Publication abstract)
