N2  - The article investigates a particular mode of semanticization of space in storytelling: it explores cases of narrative de-semanticization of space, especially of interior space. The focus of this endeavor is on the relation of the narrative creation of space and narratological self-reflection. In a reading of Descartes' "Discours de la méthode", the article exposes how the philosophical construction of the spaceless "je pense, donc je suis" diminishes the production of spatial meaningfulness provided by the narrative from which it emerges, thus exhibiting the disparity of Descartes' philosophical and narrative concepts of space. - Unlike Descartes' "Discours", Richard Ford's story "I'm Here" (from the volume "Let Me Be Frank With You") performs spatial desemanticization by staging physical destruction of interior space. The article examines how the narrative, by introducing the disintegration of a home, constructs its own starting point and thus exposes its self-generation originating in an imaginary lack of spatial significance.
