'Pataphysics

'Pataphysics ((フランス語:'pataphysique)) is an absurdist, pseudo-scientific literary trope invented by French writer
Alfred Jarry (1873–1907), that enigmatically resists being pinned down by a simple definition.〔() Shattuck, Roger. “Introduction”. Jarry, Alfred. ''Exploits & Opinions of Doctor Faustroll, Pataphysician''. A Neo-Scientific Novel. Exact Change Boston (1996) page ix〕 One attempt at a definition might be to say that ‘pataphysics is a branch of philosophy or science that examines imaginary phenomena that exist in a world beyond metaphysics; it is the science of imaginary solutions.〔American Heritage Dictionary entry at (Dictionary.com )〕 It is a concept expressed by Jarry in a mock-scientific manner with undertones of spoofing and quackery, in his fictional book ''Exploits & Opinions of Doctor Faustroll, Pataphysician'', in which Jarry riddles and toys with conventional concepts and interpretations of reality.〔() Shattuck, Roger. “Introduction”. Jarry, Alfred. ''Exploits & Opinions of Doctor Faustroll, Pataphysician''. A Neo-Scientific Novel. Exact Change Boston (1996) page ix and page 21〕 Another attempt at a definition interprets ‘pataphysics as an idea that “the virtual or imaginary nature of things as glimpsed by the heightened vision of poetry or science or love can be seized and lived as real.”〔() Shattuck, Roger. “Introduction”. Jarry, Alfred. ''Exploits & Opinions of Doctor Faustroll, Pataphysician''. A Neo-Scientific Novel. Exact Change Boston (1996) page ix〕 Jarry defines 'pataphysics in a number of statements and examples, including that it is "the science of imaginary solutions, which symbolically attributes the properties of objects, described by their virtuality, to their lineaments".〔Jarry 1996, p.21.〕
A practitioner of 'pataphysics is a pataphysician or a pataphysicist.
== Definitions ==
There are over one hundred differing definitions of ‘pataphysics.〔Brotchie et al. 2003〕 Some examples are shown below.
: "Pataphysics is the science of that which is superinduced upon metaphysics, whether within or beyond the latter’s limitations, extending as far beyond metaphysics as the latter extends beyond physics. … ‘Pataphysics will be, above all, the science of the particular, despite the common opinion that the only science is that of the general. ‘Pataphysics will examine the laws governing exceptions, and will explain the universe supplementary to this one.”〔
: Pataphysics is patient; 'Pataphysics is benign; 'Pataphysics envies nothing, is never distracted, never puffed up, it has neither aspirations nor seeks not its own, it is even-tempered, and thinks not evil; it mocks not iniquity: it is enraptured with scientific truth; it supports everything, believes everything, has faith in everything and upholds everything that is.”〔“Épanorthose sur le Clinamen moral”, Cahiers du Collège de ‘Pataphysique, 21, 22 Sable 83 (29 December 1955 vulg.)〕 as cited in〔
: "Pataphysics passes easily from one state of apparent definition to another. Thus it can present itself under the aspect of a gas, a liquid or a solid.”〔Patafluens 2001, Istituto Patafisico Vitellianese, Viadana, 2002〕 as cited in〔
: "Pataphysics "the science of the particular", does not, therefore, study the rules governing the general recurrence of a periodic incident (the expected case) so much as study the games governing the special occurrence of a sporadic accident (the excepted case). … Jarry performs humorously on behalf of literature what Nietzsche performs seriously on behalf of philosophy. Both thinkers in effect attempt to dream up a “gay science”, whose joie de vivre thrives wherever the tyranny of truth has increased our esteem for the lie and wherever the tyranny of reason has increased our esteem for the mad.”〔Bök 2002, p.9.〕
