Secret and testimony play a crucial role in the forces that structure not only the juridical but also rhetoric and meaning. The failure of universalising narratives to adequately articulate catastrophic sites of trauma and mourning is treated not as a loss but as an opportunity to reinstate a creative and affirmative approach to thinking, writing, and reading, and thus how the world is made. Leibniz's notion of "disquiet" as an affirmative motivator toward creation underpins this thesis. / The thesis considers the place of the personal and the civic in the electronic polis; the role that cybernetics has played in politics and popular culture since 1945; secrecy and autobiographicity in literature from the second world war; in working away from post-Darwinian evolutionary discourses of natural selection, considers the affirmative role the unworking of sense plays in the generation of meaning; and directly tests post-structuralist continental philosophies in local conditions. / Thesis (PhD)--University of South Australia, 2006.
