Abstract

This study examines The History of the Devil and analyzes how the text unfolds as a dramatic scene, depicting a peculiar connection with reality, seemingly orchestrated by sin under the guidance of the devil. This study is structured into three sections titled “Ways of Thinking,“ “Ways of Saying,“ and “Ways of Understanding.” It aims to analyze how Flusser employs analogies and allegories to establish a connection between fiction and the contemporary world in its exercises of power and trivialization of all states of exception.
