Ambedkar : pionnier, impenses historico-pol

Autre intervention, mode d'intervention dans les discours, d'Ambedkar : 'This book may, therefore, be taken as a pioneer attempt in the exploration of a field so completely neglected by everybody.'
Ici, invention des termes mêmes, forçage d'un parlable, dicible, discutable, vers voix politique et position d'énonciation ; sujet politique.

Intouchabilite, absente de tous discours ? En voir l'histoire.

Cf Essential Writings 114 : 'Sole of the questions are such that very few people are even aware of them; and those who are aware of them are puzzled by them and do not know how to answer them.'
115 : missing links. Ruptures des tracés historiques. Lieux des hiatus d'énonciation, quand on passe d'un sujet politique à un autre.
116 : It is a case of reconstructing history where there are no texts ('we are dealing with an institution the origin of which is lost in antiquity'), and if there are, they have no direct bearing on the question.'
117 : 'In this sense the book is a work of art even more than of history.' (archeologist, paleontologist, or painter / to make up a scene').
