The poetics of language programme assumed that what makes a literary text distinct from an ordinary linguistic object is some inherent deviation at the formal and structural level. Behind this approach is the idea that there is a distinct language of literature. The fact that pre-existing stretches of ordinary language (‘found text’) may be quoted verbatim as poems presents a challenge to this view. Using a range of similar examples, this chapter invites the reader to step into a ‘gallery’, a space containing some of the philosophical puzzles encountered when trying to decide whether or not a certain object belongs in the category of art. It is the space Danto called the ‘gallery of indiscernibles’. Philosophy of art, literary theory and literary linguistics have treated these puzzles as problematic cases; this book treats them as highly illuminating examples which hold the key to the essence of literature and art. The chapter then challenges a series of assumptions that are implicit in most existing literary-linguistic, literary-theoretical and art-philosophical accounts and treats literature/art as a case of human agency, an action-process that brings literary texts and artworks into being, and has so far been left unlabelled and unaccounted for.
