Com Viet

The subject of Jean-Baptiste's monologue is love, reflections on the French conception of love and that of the ancients – Hadrian's love for Antinous, the ideas about ideal love that are transmitted by French films and literary culture in general, and Marguerite Yourcenar's transmission of those notions through her own intimate relationship with literature, with history as a material of shifting properties, consciousnesses, points of convergence. Excerpted from an interview with Yourcenar from 1980, playing with the borrowing of a literary tradition, updating Yourcenar's interview into another context, drawing out the actor's own relation both to inhabiting the current space and conditions of the city while reflecting Yourcenar's timeless conceptions of real and fictional love and longing.
