personal intertextuality, blind references, and saying the story first
This blogpost was dictated aloud and is mildly edited for clarity.
one of my favorite parts about writing The Hierophant--er, when i do write it--and other works is just how intertextual i can be. and it boils down to the nature of what I call "blind references". i am not a person that can synthesize things 100% perfectly in my own words…i'm always thinking of other people and their other writing and their other quotes and their other ideas, and i feel an ethical urge to give back to these authors. but i can't necessarily write quotes [outright] because that would be a bit too postmodern for my work…
so what i do instead is, i try to replicate the best or the most emotional part of the quote and what I've noticed is that some of these quotes are quite profound. it all goes back to blind references, i think. even unwittingly, even if i don't make it a goal to write the precise phrase, i still wind up writing a very similar thing anyway. on one hand it's very nice; i get to refresh my ideas and my perceptions on the work [that i had in mind], and i get to read a little bit on the side too. on the other hand, it can be quite difficult to write because you're so bombarded by all of these cool things basically. and it distracts from what you need to say. i think there's a difference between what we need to say, and what we want to say. storytelling, especially on a first draft, is all about what you need to say.
i think at the end of the day you need to tell the story first and foremost and every little embellishment can come later. we definitely can deviate a little. to come back to blind references, it's not just like a random assortment of quotes. it's actually a very select group of quotes they tend to be a bit melancholy but they also tend to be very inspirational and very beautiful sometimes. sometimes i remember scenes. these face similar problems. but it's nice, it's very serendipitous…i folded laundry the other day and i remembered a character said, "You know who I am, right? What I am?" and the other character said, "yeah, i do." i wasn't feeling that same tragic feeling but it came to me out of the deep
Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; It is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotions know what it means to want to escape from these things.
T. S. Eliot, from his essay, Tradition and the Individual Talent (1917), ushering in modernism by threading needles on what the poet owes the past and, here, the aesthetic necessity of impersonality fulfilled inevitably indeed by persons.
