<br/><br/> Heidegger’s interpretation of Sophocles’ Antigone is decidedly opposed to the political philosophy of the Ancients (Aristotle and Plato) and the moderns of the School of Natural Law and the Law of Nations. The author demonstrates here that Heidegger’s political conception, which viewx violence and advantage as the foundation of politics, is linked to his representation of Man. However, it relies on a particularly striking and troubling philological twisting of Sophocles’ text. This interpretation was previously approached with caution by Michel Foucault and Jacques Lacan. The tragedy of Sophocles does not forget philosophy, which in turn cannot be reduced to tragedy.
