National roots are monolingual while errantry still speaks indirectly through detour

Evidence

The root is monolingual. For the troubadour and for Rimbaud errantry is a vocation only toid via detour. The call of Relation is heard, but it is not yet a fully present experience. — Édouard Glissant, Poetics of Relation, 131

Categorization

• DEFINE: Clarifies detour as the necessary indirect vehicle of errantry before Relation is present — precisely the mechanism vocabulary the reader’s Glissant track needs.
• XREF: The mono-lingualism of the root ties into the reader’s detour/ruse/opacity focus, and the exile-suffers-from-language-loss point prefigures Glissant’s later opacity passages. — connects to: Migration erodes boundaries between languages, cultures, and nation-states — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 3805; Diasporic identity is formed by routes as much as by roots — Stuart Hall, Essential Essays, Volume 2: Identity…, 1201; Translated non-Western writing is absorbed through a single representative voice — Aijaz Ahmad, In Theory: Classes, Nations, Literatures, 377
