Abstract
Written in 29 tangos, this paper explores the poem's negotiation between proximity and distance, between touching and not-touching. It takes as its starting point Anne Carson's The Beauty of the Husband, tendering the intimate dis-tanz at the heart of the tango, and at the heart of Derrida's poetics.
