| Long abstract | The year 991 will never be complete. It endures, subject to remaking and revision.2 At the time, the year must have been anticipated, welcomed, dreaded. Seasons change. Years turn. And by their passage those who live on stand recruited as mnemotechnical relays to their passing. The future, the effect of the future is never wanting, never lack-ing. The future happens all the time. You and we, as well as the life cycles or runtime of all its variously animated wetware (animals, plants, fungus, machines), all that “lives on,” constitute the medium by which, in which, the future presences.3 The dead stand recruited also, “dying on” by way of memory, external memory devices (memo-rials, tombs, etc.) and resuscitated into the fictive or factish uses of things deemed “past” in successive pre-sents. Liveliness finds itself distributed across the contin-uum, from which notions of life and death, past, present, and future, find themselves extracted. The humanities cohabit with the charnel house of the collective. Our read-ings perform variously secular or sacred resurrections. |
