Around Authenticity: From Denouncing the Jargon to the Metamodern Reconstructions of the Concept
Abstract: This article revisits some of the most influential critical discourses of authenticity after Theodor Adorno’s Jargon der Eigentlichkeit (1964). After the poststructuralist deconstruction of the subject and the postmodernist “waning of affect” (as purported by Fredric Jameson), emerging trends like “the new sincerity” and “the affective turn” announced the comeback or upcycling of narratives related to authenticity. They will eventually regroup in the paradigm of metamodernism, in which the literary genres interested in autobiography and memory are revaluated.
Keywords: authenticity, new sincerity, the affective turn, metamodernism, autofiction, metareferentiality
