The Interstitial Rhapsody
Philosophy, Literature, and Performance as Resistance in Medicine and Narrative
Created by AlvaroYou will journey through a philosophical and literary exploration of how narrative resistance operates at the margins of medical discourse, where silenced voices and interstitial spaces become sites of ethical possibility. This work traces the genealogy of how medical jargon has functioned as narrative violence, confining patient subjectivity within clinical categories that deny human complexity. Through the lens of tragic rhapsody, aesthetic ethics, and performance philosophy, you will discover how poetic forms and embodied storytelling practices can restore patient agency and dignity. The book integrates humanistic medicine with contemporary resistance theory, revealing how vulnerability and silence—when reclaimed through rhapsodic performance and interstitial narrative—become sources of healing and territorial belonging. You will develop frameworks for understanding patients as narrative persons, critique the philosophical deafness embedded in medical systems, and explore how nomadic poetry and enchantment can transform care practices. This synthesis of philosophy, literature, and performance offers a poetics of resistance that calls for medicine's humanistic return.
