Sažetak
Starting from the fact that Hannah Arendt did not elaborate much on the problem of the body and on its role in the process of forming the political, Julia Kristeva, Linda M. G. Zerilli and Judith Butler tried to reconstruct her view on that topic. The authors claim that the dominant public discourse, almost always represses the body, ascribing it to the same adjective of ’abject’. While Zerilli focuses on the violent nature of the law dividing the private from the public and the body from the political, Kristeva points out that the bond between the body and speech is too strong to be questioned, so the body cannot be condemned only to the private sphere ; embracing the terminology, Butler also addresses the ‘abject body’, saying that it refers to any body which defies the imposed ideal: the white, male, heterosexual body.
