Abstract (in English): 

The essay addresses the theoretical background and artistic inspiration for the author's engagement with locative narrative. 

Pull Quotes: 

Locative Narrative is a literature of action, of movement, of moment and of place, not (so far) about “style” or other semantic/aesthetic/point of entry roadblocks. This perhaps is already part of its role within larger literature thus far.

Locative Narrative made integrating the physical and narrative spaces not only possible, but essential. The tools of the writer now were to be no longer limited to letter forms and tools as before; the world itself and its details were intertwined with text and writing intrinsically. This was an amazing realization.
