Abstract
- Since ancient times, allegory works through its demonic primordial agency, having a unique power to act without impediment, following an absolute, single-minded intention of getting and exploiting power. But the allegory without ideas systematically serves to represent power relations with an increasingly secular pragmatic and materialist set of operations, which deliberately constructs its meanings.
