Abstract


By emphasizing the singular experience of the act of reading, this paper presents the work of a French legal philosopher and psychoanalyst: Pierre Legendre. Whereas this attempt could be simultaneously an impossible and irritating venture, its aim is to emphasize something that is not so often seen in legal theory: an inquiry into the nuances of the legal unconscious. In doing so, the paper opens with some references to his particular understanding of love and the spectacular as a legal resource to dominate its subjects. It continues to be peppered with several attractive spaces in which Legendre’s ecounters the binding force in the imaginary of the legal institution.
