« Esas cajas que contienen mi biblioteca constituyen mi biografía. Hay muchas maneras de narrar una vida. Es posible decir, como suele hacerse, la fecha de nacimiento, la nacionalidad, el estado civil, la profesión…, pero, en muchos casos, sería más pertinente hacer una lista de libros […]. Una biblioteca es una biografía escrita con las palabras de otros, hecha de la acumulación y el orden de los diferentes libros que alguien ha leído durante su vida, un puzle textual que permite reconstruir la vida del lector.

[… A] los libros leídos habría que añadir los libros que poseemos sin haberlos leído, aquellos que reposan en las estanterías o esperan sobre las mesas sin haber sido nunca abiertos y recorridos con la mirada, ni total ni parcialmente. En una biografía, los libros no leídos son un indicador de anhelos frustrados, deseos pasajeros, amistades rotas, vocaciones no realizadas, depresiones secretas que se disimulan bajo la apariencia de la sobrecarga de trabajo o la falta de tiempo […]. Otras [veces], los libros todavía no leídos son una reserva de futuro, trozos de tiempo contenido, indican una dirección que la vida podría tomar en cualquier momento.

Hecha de ese cúmulo de palabras leídas, recordadas, olvidadas y no leídas, una biblioteca es una prótesis textual del lector, un cuerpo de ficción externalizado y público. »

An Apartment on Uranus by Paul B. Preciado

goodreads

Uranus, the frozen giant, is the coldest planet in the solar system, as well as a deity in Greek mythology. It is also the inspiration for uranism, a concept coined by the writer Karl Heinrich Ulrich in 1864 to define the `third sex' and the rights of those who `love differently'. Following in Ulrich's footsteps, Paul B. Preciado dreams of an apartment on Uranus where he might live beyond existing power, gender and racial strictures invented by modernity. `My trans condition is a new form of uranism,' writes the author. `I am not a man. I am not a woman. I am not heterosexual. I am not homosexual. I am not bisexual. I am a dissident of the genus-gender system. I am the multiplicity of the cosmos trapped in a binary political and epistemological system, shouting in front of you. I am a uranist confined inside the limits of technoscientific capitalism.' This book, a chronicle of a crossing, recounts the process of transforming from Beatriz into Paul B. during which the author transformed his body and subjectivity through the self-administration of testosterone. Yet An Apartment on Uranus is not simply an account of gender transitioning, but rather of a global transition: Preciado analyses other processes of political, cultural and sexual transition, reflecting on socio-political issues including the rise of neo-fascism in Europe, the migrant crisis, the Zapatista struggle in Mexico, the fight for Catalonian independence, Julian Assange, sex work, Trump's America, the harassment of trans children, the technological appropriation of the uterus, and the role museums might play in the cultural revolution to come. AN APARTMENT ON URANUS is a bold, transgressive and necessary book which takes a personal experience as a starting point to question the foundations of a society which excludes heterodoxy and proclaims it deviancy or illness, putting forward a radical argument for a new gender politics.

Mod opinion: I haven't read this book yet, but my girlfriend owns it so I might get around to it someday.

” As a trans-man, I disidentify myself from the dominant masculinity and its necro-political definition. What is most urgent is not to defend what we are (men or women) but to reject it, to disidentify ourselves from the political coercion which forces us to desire the norm and reproduce it. Our political praxis is to disobey the norms of gender and sexuality. ”

-Paul B. Preciado (Letter from a trans man to the old sexual regime)

Paul B. Preciado, from An Apartment on Uranus: Collected Essays, translation mine

#paul b preciado #paul preciado #quotes #an apartment on Uranus #capitalism! #translation mine!

[e-ste-tica]

“Non siete più una classe sociale, un genere o un sesso preciso, non siete esattamente proletari, né solo esattamente donne, nemmeno semplicemente omosessuali, nere o trans. Non cercate di risolvere gli antagonismi attraverso una relazione dialettica. Siete una scissione creativa. Il vostro compito politico sarà quello di articolare queste differenze eterogenee senza totalizzarle, né unificarle fittiziamente sotto una supposta identità o ideologia. Essere una zona ad alta intensità di passione attraverso la quale passa il desiderio di cambiare tutto. Uscire dai significanti dispotici dell’identità. Non si tratta più di Nietzsche: tutti i nomi della storia sono il tuo nome. Qui si tratta di Gloria Anzaldúa: la storia ancora non conosce il vostro nome

[...]

Finora vi abbiamo insegnato a vergognarvi della vostra inadeguatezza o della vostra disforia. Ma la vostra storia di oppressione è la vostra ricchezza, dovete studiarla e conoscerla, fare di essa un archivio collettivo per il cambiamento e la sopravvivenza. La vostra disforia è la vostra resistenza alla norma, in essa risiede la potenza di trasformazione del presente. Soltanto il sapere che viene da questo trauma e da questa violenza, da questa vergogna e da questo dolore, da questa inadeguatezza e da questa anormalità, può salvarci.”

it's funny how autofiction has gotten kind of a bad rep on this website (i don't remember why? there must have been something that caused this i think it's supposed to be shallow?) because to me it's such a fun and interesting genre, with extremely thought-provoking aesthetic implications??? but to each their own

Testo Junkie: Sex, Drugs and Biopolitics in the Pharmacopornographic Era by Paul B. Preciado

goodreads

What constitutes a "real" man or woman in the twenty-first century? Since birth control pills, erectile dysfunction remedies, and factory-made testosterone and estrogen were developed, biology is definitely no longer destiny. In this penetrating analysis of gender, Paul B. Preciado shows the ways in which the synthesis of hormones since the 1950s has fundamentally changed how gender and sexual identity are formulated, and how the pharmaceutical and pornography industries are in the business of creating desire. This riveting continuation of Michel Foucault's The History of Sexuality also includes Preciado's diaristic account of his own use of testosterone every day for one year, and its mesmerizing impact on his body as well as his imagination.

Mod opinion: I haven't read this book yet, but I've heard of the title and it sounds interesting.

What am I doing here? I have come to terrorize you! I am a monster, you say? No! I am the people! I am an exception? No! I am the rule; you are the exception! You are the chimera; I am the reality!

Victor Hugo, The Man who Laughs (1869), quoted by artist Lorenza Böttner in her thesis ‘Handicapped?’ (1982) and epigraph of Paul B. Preciado's Can the Monster Speak?

“… until Donna Haraway, the majority of feminist analysis of “technology” … reduced sex technologies to a constellation of reproductive techniques. The difficulty with this kind of feminist gait is that it falls into the trap of essentializing and homogenizing the category of the woman, an operation that generally leads to the conflation of women’s bodies and sexuality with the reproductive function, placing the emphasis on the dangers (domination, exploitation, alienation) that technology represents for women’s bodies.”
