Abstract

RUVITUSO, Mercedes. The Aesthetic Dimension of Sovereign Power in Giorgio Agamben's Thought. Diánoia [online]. 2013, vol.58, n.71, pp.105-125. ISSN 0185-2450.

This paper focuses on the concept of image as articulated in Giorgio Agamben's Homo sacer (1995) -i.e., in its relationship with the concepts of sovereignty and bare life- in order to throw light on the connection between aesthetics and politics in Agamben's thought.

Keywords : Agamben; image; sovereignty; apparatus; homo sacer.
