Abstract

This paper aims at discussing, from a theoretical perspective, the possibility of registering, in the discourse of the Humanities, the experience of violence. To do so, I analyze the relationship between experience and language as defined by Bourdieu and confront it with some of Derrida’s ideas in relation to Saussure’s linguistics. I will argue that the discursive register of violence should be done as a bia-graphy (“writing of violence”) which is inscribed – though in an elusive form – in each and every biography (“writing of life”).
