| Sumario: | [EN] In his Dialogue in Hell between Machiavelli and Montesquieu, Maurice Joly cast Napoleon III in a role similar to that played by Cesare Borgia in The Prince, and one wonders if he wouldn’t do the same now with a figure as picturesque as Donald Trump. As Marx pointed out, inspired by Engels, tragedies tend to be repeated as farces, and the characters who perform them increasingly cultivate a shamelessly burlesque genre. It is also worth remembering that a crude plagiarism of Joly’s text gave rise to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, and that conspiracy theories unfortunately recruit many followers today, fostering a counter-Enlightenment despotism with neo-fascist traits. |
