Deconstructive Readings of Historical Topoi
In his current research, Marius van Hoogstraten undertakes deconstructive readings of topoi from Anabaptist history. In these readings, a constitutive ambiguity appears to insist itself into efforts to ground a separated identity. The suspicion arises that this ambiguity may, in spite of itself, be a site for strategic coinventivity, that is to say, an Anabaptism more beholden to the wider togetherness of a divine complicatio than a stark confessional particularity.
