The Republic always represented a certain emancipatory idea, a password,
or a flag, which stood up against imperial tyranny (Rome) or hereditary
monarchy (France). But that performance was neither unison nor
monochrome. Perhaps the purest, ideal-type representation of the republic,
with all the paradoxes and/or contradictions of its discourse, is offered by a
republic that in the political sense could not be called by that name, or
perhaps it was just a crypto-political republic, a so-called metaphor of the
republic that, all the more, reveals its constitutive fragility. Respublica
literaria is not a „real" republic, but it is not a complete chimera either: it
had its members, but no citizenship that guarantees anything. It did not
have its territorial boundaries, but it also knew how to limit the conditions
of belonging to it – by proving a standard that we could maybe call
intellectualistic, but a standard that was engaged inside communication.
This is the co...ntradiction we would like to expose in this paper. The fact that
Respublica literaria consistently, to the point of paroxysm, followed the
principle that it is not a private but a public matter and that this occurred
alongside the fact that the public space, or the space of that public, was very
limited, and more transparently indicated than usual. The characteristic not
only of that republic but something like perhaps the fate of each: the first
act of the French republic was the closing of the borders, similar to the
Soviet one. The question is therefore whether the republic can exist in a
14
universal way or whether it implies exclusion. And vice versa, is the act of
demarcation inevitable when establishing a republic that otherwise aspires
to universality
