This paper aims at reflecting about the leading reasons for the threshold (luminal) decline in contemporary living experience. Under Walter Benjamin’s concepts of boundary and threshold, we suggest this decadence parallels the fantastic literature, whose transfiguration of the unusual and the absurd in modernity has dissipated hesitation as its defining feature. Jeanne Marie Gagnebin connects this transformation to the way experience and tradition have been supplanted by capitalism, with the consequence of suppression of transitions in the perception of the world, interfering on creation and reception of symbolic expressions.
