Abstract

After W. G. Sebald’s essays on the silence of German writers during after-war period, a question about the absence of writing in a culture of such a great literary expression and tradition arises. Regarding to the silence in front of the horror, this question is extended to the psychoanalytical field and related to the expression “passion to the real”, in the philosopher Alain Badiou’s words, who proposed also, in front of this state of things a “subtractive pathway”.
