Literatures of the death penalty, or Hugo against Kant. For a deconstruction of man
Keywords:
woman, deconstruction, exclusion, death penalty, dignity.
Abstract
Based on Séminaire La peine de mort of Jacques Derrida, the article focuses on what the literature on the death penalty has excluded. Putting to dialogue the abolitionism of Hugo with the antiabolitionism of Kant, the text writes an interpretation of that dialogue from certain sexual violence. It is about thinking what would happen if we ask: is the death penalty the woman’s own?Downloads
