Starting from an historical description of this founding political office which considers the Roman dictatorship as the originary paradigm of the republican Roman leader and magistrate, it should be possible the openness towards a social-ontological interpretation of the political and legal experience of republican dictatorship itself. Infact, the <<dictatura>> could be interpreted as the political embodiment of the legal-historical self-consciousness of Rome, concerning both the essence of <<dicere ius>> and <<iurisdictio>> and the dialectics - which is immanent to that essence - of creation/annihilation of any legal-political order.

The paper would show how this Schmittian conception is expressly linked with the Hegel's theory of <<Sittlichkeit>>, that primarily consists in an all-encompassing institutional paradigm which reveals the historical synthesis of politics, ethics, economy and law. Nevertheless, between Schmitt and Hegel there is also a fundamental philosohical divergence: while Hegel thinks essentially the positive self-foundation of an accomplished political community through the <<immense power of the Negative>>, so the determinate negation, instead, Schmitt attempts to bring out the bond that links the absolute contingency and the ordering necessity that pervades the political and legal reality of the so-called <<Gesetzespositivismus>> (legal positivism).

This "summa divisio" shown clearly in the logical context of the "Tractatus logico-philosophicus" is taken to its extreme consequences on §55 of the "Philosophical Investigations", in which the hypothesis of the linguistic description of the <<destruction of everything which is destructible>> could open a metaphysical ambiguity in Wittgenstein's thought. On the one hand, Wittgenstein corroborates the metaphysical Aristotelian tradition founded on the difference between necessary being and accidental being. But, on the other hand, it is possible to consider Wittgenstein as the forerunner of a new conception of necessity and contingency, based upon an unprecedented ontology of accident.

It means that the essence of being reveals itself in the allegorical figure of Saturn and in its rule: the methaphysics of exception. In this context, it becomes perspicuous the nature of the Darstellung der Ideen as the representation of the absolute conjunction between Destiny-the eternal constellation of truth in which the "platonic salvation of phenomena", and the historical reality dominated by the juridical dialectics of violence happens. This conjunction expresses a mutual implication between the two dimensions and it could be written in this form: representation of [(De˄de)]stiny. This ontological perspective is intelligible in the light of the theory of Baroque allegory linked with the doctrine of state of exception as "nearly impossible to decide".

These are not mere "human activities" or "subjects", but the double <<ethos>> of the destiny of human being. The constitution of this being is not founded upon necessity. On the contrary, necessity is possible only if we can think something that we could called <<accident>> (symbebekòs, accidens), that is not the same of what philosophical and scientific tradition - from Aristotle until nowadays - have described.
I attempt to explain this metaphysical theory thanks to an <<accidental closeness>> that connects Leopardi, Hegel and Aristotle.

This connection, analyzed in the light of an onto-phenomenological perspective, is considered from different but complementary points of view by G. Husserl and A. Pizzorusso. This work attempts to show how from the tautological (but necessary) achievements of the Pizzorussian research about legal science and judicial practice, it becomes possible to thematise an onto-phenomenological conjunction between the two roots of law (science and practice -> S∧P) under the particular conception of legal experience (Rechtserfahrung) by G. Husserl.

So it tries a comparison with some fundamental concepts of Plato, Kantorowicz, Foucault and Empedocles for understanding the supremacy of a political theory dominated by a dogmatic "spiritualistic" perspective of political body that hides a somatic metamorphosis under a soul's metamorphosis.

The paper tries to demonstrate that this specific Kojèvian theory is not occasional, but it represents an important articulation of the "Hegelian" System of wisdom created by the Russian philosopher. An articulation in which it shows a kind of "meeting place" of central parts of the System, in particular the philosophical anthropology based on desire (Begierde) and recognition (Anerkennung), the theory of Authority and the phenomenology of law. The common thread of my interpretation is the relationship thematised by Kojève between political power and philosophy. This perspective could open plural dimensions of tyranny in the Kojèvian thought. Dimensions which are interconnected in the direction of a post-historical and post-political State, in which the concepts of "stranger" and "alien" are dissolved into an universal and all-embracing reality.

Kojève identifies this dimension with Time. He locates a specific connection between each of the four “pure” types of Authority and each temporal dimension: Present, Past, Future and Eternity. The last one in particular is a dimension that, at the end of History, will be generated after the depletion of all the human possibilities of Fight and Work and culminate in a non-political and absolutely legal reality: an universal and homogeneous State (or Empire). In this paper, I would to show that the Kojèvian theory of Authority is founded on the metaphysical conception of Concept and Time, that the philosopher formulated on his famous interpretation of the Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit. Here, Kojève resumed his metaphysical thesis in this equation: C=T, so Concept is Time. Moreover, it could become clear as Authority’s theory – in the perspective of that equation – is oriented towards the post-historical and legal reality that will realize the idea of Justice owning to the eternal Authority of Judge.

In this review of Giorgio Agamben’s Homo sacer. Edizione integrale.1995-2015, the main theme is the critique of the philosophical method used by the Italian philosopher. The method is called “philosophical archaeology”. It could be considered a particular research finalized to demonstrate the structure of western politics as a “double machine”: animal life – the Aristotelian zoe – in the origin of the western political and metaphysical thought is excluded and included in polis at the same time, a kind of hidden foundation opposed and linked with political life – the Aristotelian bios. In this review are analyzed new possible horizons opened thanks to this method, but also its aporias and contradictions.
This article concerns the last controversial Agamben's speeches about covid-19 and the relations between the problem of contagion and the state of exception as political paradigm of government.
This work concerns Walter Benjamin’s theory of state of exception in the context of his philoso-phy of history, which is expressed above all in two important essays:Über den Begriff der Ge-schichte (“On the concept of history”, 1942) and Zur Kritik der Gewalt (“Critique of violence”, 1921). This paper tries to outline the metaphysical meaningof the distinction that Benjamin made between “state of exception” (Ausnahmezustand) as a condition of political and juridical oppres-sion and the real state of exception (wirklich Ausnahmezustand), which instead Benjamin de-scribed as the revolutionary chance of the oppressed classes that we can think exclusively because of a Messianic conception of time (Jetztzeit) and history (historical materialism theologically inter-preted).Thanks to this reconstruction of Benjamin’s philosophy of history,the paper attemptsto show –al-so through a comparison with the theories of Giorgio Agamben, Carl Schmitt, Jacob Taubes and Lenin –whetherit is possible to think ofa philosophy oflaw as a philosophy against law.

Starting with a provocation of Bernhard's Auslöschung, in which the novelist talks about "Europe of Leitz classifiers", this work tries to outline synthetically the Schmittian theory of nomos, understood as a philosophy of history based on a succession of conquests and distributions of spaces. So, this is our question: is a new sovereignty possible-a kind of "nomos basileus"in the light of the origins and of the present structure of European Union?

Enquiring into the problems concerning knowledge moves from the assumption of a plurality of perspectives through which we can observe the building up of science, as well as its spread and relationship with the social context in our time. The core object of this research relates especially to the transformations that knowledge experiences in its velocity, forms and models. All these essays are, therefore, represent different attempts to pinpoint the nexus between those transformations and some of the most prominent historico-political changes in our epoch.

This paper tries to outline the metaphysical meaningof the distinction that Benjamin made between “state of exception” (Ausnahmezustand) as a condition of political and juridical oppres-sion and the real state of exception (wirklich Ausnahmezustand), which instead Benjamin de-scribed as the revolutionary chance of the oppressed classes that we can think exclusively because of a Messianic conception of time (Jetztzeit) and history (historical materialism theologically inter-preted).Thanks to this reconstruction of Benjamin’s philosophy of history,the paper attemptsto show –al-so through a comparison with the theories of Giorgio Agamben, Carl Schmitt, Jacob Taubes and Lenin –whetherit is possible to think ofa philosophy oflaw as a philosophy against law.
The core object of this research relates especially to the transformations that knowledge experiences in its velocity, forms and models. All these essays are, therefore, represent different attempts to pinpoint the nexus between those transformations and some of the most prominent historico-political changes in our epoch.
