Abstract

This article falls within the scope of legal and literary studies, aiming to examine to what extent the lyrics of the song Sangue latino (1973) by the Brazilian band Secos & Molhados can facilitate the interpretative understanding of the concept of homo sacer, elevated to the status of a legal-political device by the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben. To do so, it employs a hermeneutic-phenomenological methodology and, through a poetic-philosophical interpretation of the verses of Sangue latino, analyzes the figurative elements that address characteristics that can illustrate the formulation of the concept of homo sacer.
