Abstract

The clown as sovereign. The moving idea of this article is to compose a manifest by which the sovereignty of the clown can establish itself as text. How to write the text‑clown? Based on the concept of Sovereignty and State of Exception taken mainly by Agamben and Bataille, is established which would be a possibility of confrontation and removal of these conditions starting from the image and constitution of the clown as an open sovereign text. A sovereignty extremely clumsy, delicate and playful, but not less political and trenchant. For this, pieces are structured or, how in the proposed image by Deleuze, conceptual blocks that fit together in various relationships governed by the occurrence and that often establish, delicately and subtly, something that could be called the sovereignty of the clown.
