DANDY AND FLÂNEUR: MODES OF SUBJECTIVATION FROM MODERNITY AND THE ENGLISH MODS
Abstract
The social organisation within large cities is pointed out as the principal cause of the creation of the Modernity subject, who is mainly individualistic and privatised. Life amid the rising urban chaos and the crowds gathered made possible to assert about some consequent modes of subjectivation that emerged in those configurations and social-historical and cultural contexts. The poet Charles Baudelaire is named as an important character for understanding the Modernity, since he translated the sensations of city dweller and assumed different roles to face this urban life. From some considerations related to Modern city, I seek to enlist modes of subjectivation of Modernity (materialised and expressed within the dandy and the flâneur figures), firstly presenting some main features of them to afterwards relate those subjectivation modes with the update, assumption and distortion forms proceed by the members of a British popular youth subculture originated around the second part of 20th century: the Mods.Downloads
