Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : Roger Caillois’ work is a long exploration of an art of interconnections and adventurous coherence between phenomena. In this way, it is particularly in tune with the dual orientation of the present, which, on the one hand, pushes the arts, sciences and philosophy towards the invention of apparatuses for the heterogeneous, and, on the other, social and cultural life towards a poetic and moral link with the more distant. By comparing some of Caillois’s texts with Plato’s Laws, the text shows that this perspective must be tested against Roger Caillois’s reflections on power and politics, and his understanding of democratic modernity.
