Revenge Porn, and its closely-related Cancel Culture, are aesthetic and political, psychological and delinquent phenomena, whose traits are still poorly defined, not only on a legal level. This essay tries to address Revenge Porn particularly by reading it in the light of a certain philosophical tradition (Foucault, Barthes, Baudrillard, Hegel, Nietzsche, Wittgenstein and others). This philosophical tradition can help further multiply the contradictions in which the phenomenon manifests itself, in all its cruel reality often made of the flesh (Merleau-Ponty) of the other, the victim of the Revenge Porn, reduced to her image shared without consent.

Abstract

Revenge Porn, and its closely-related Cancel Culture, are aesthetic and political, psychological and delinquent phenomena, whose traits are still poorly defined, not only on a legal level. This essay tries to address Revenge Porn particularly by reading it in the light of a certain philosophical tradition (Foucault, Barthes, Baudrillard, Hegel, Nietzsche, Wittgenstein and others). This philosophical tradition can help further multiply the contradictions in which the phenomenon manifests itself, in all its cruel reality often made of the flesh (Merleau-Ponty) of the other, the victim of the Revenge Porn, reduced to her image shared without consent.
