Sažetak
This paper explores the police and politics of literature in
the Rancière sense in the novel Vježbanje života [The Exercise
of Life] (1985) by Nedjeljko Fabrio (1937-2018).
Namely, Jacques Rancière (1940) grounded aesthetics from
the heights of pure art towards the common reality of forms
and transformations of sensory experience, which is evident
in the essay Le Partage du sensible from 2000. His theory
became a stimulating framework for coming up with inventive
ways of connecting political theory and aesthetics. In
his critical system, he distinguishes between the police and
politics of literature. When looking at the police of literature
in the novel Vježbanje života [The Exercise of Life], one can
see various political debates, the presentation of the protagonist’s
personal views on certain (political) issues, and
criticism of the society in which we live. Fabrio carries out
the division of the sensory in a completely new way, which
is visible in the use of different narrative strategies in the
novel. He inserts numerous stories into the story, introduces
different forms of texts, uses numerous typographical solutions,
and goes beyond the traditional genre characteristics
present in the novel. The use of these narrative strategies,
unusual for prose works until the appearance of Vježbanje
života [The Exercise of Life], lays bare the literary policy systematically conducted at the level of the entire novel by
Nedjeljko Fabrio. The author speaks about various topics
and is protected from any type of censorship (political, religious,
etc.) precisely through literature. The freedom that
literature offers the author is “a powerful political weapon,
which can nevertheless be neutralized at a moment’s notice
as fiction” (Derrida).
