Resumen
KARMY BOLTON, Rodrigo. The Life that Usselesly Consumed in the Flame. Image, Gesture and Politics: Giorgio Agamben and Guy Debord. Valenciana [online]. 2022, vol.15, n.29, pp.347-364. Epub 08-Abr-2022. ISSN 2007-2538. https://doi.org/10.15174/rv.v14i29.618.
This essay shows the influence of Guy Debord´s work on Giorgio Agamben´s thought, in particular, regarding one of the central problems of his thought, that is, the difference between “image” and “gesture”. To show this, I will used three moments of his work, starting with “Glosas to the Comments of the Society of the spectacle” written in 1993 to go further to “The Kingdom and the Glory”, of 2007, and ending in “The Use of the Bodies”, of 2014. In these three moments we could find three references to Debord that, nevertheless, will lead Agamben to the question of the “gesture” or, as it is known, the problem of the “form-of-life”.
