Ipocrisia e purezza dell’autorità in >Indagine su un cittadino al di sopra di ogni sospetto< di E. Petri, sulle orme di >Masochismo e Autorità< di E. Fromm [Hypocrisy and pureness of authority in >Indagine su un cittadino al di sopra di ogni sospetto< (E. Petri, 1970) in relation with >The authoritarian-masochistic character< by E. Fromm]

  • Hypocrisy and pureness of authority in >Indagine su un cittadino al di sopra di ogni sospetto< (E. Petri, 1970) in relation with >The authoritarian-masochistic character< by E. Fromm. This work had been written in order to investigate hypocrisy of authority: a will to feel itself and to show itself as a body without faults and vices, without infringement and indecencies. A cinematographic document of this self-perception is Elio Petri’s movie, >Indagine su un cittadino al di sopra di ogni sospetto< (Investigation of a Citizen above Suspicion). Screenplay, dialogues and actor’s work on the character are in relation with the features of authority – pureness, majesty, gap, aplomb – listed in >Studies on the authority and family<, a work by Frankfurt School’s intellectuals, in particular in >The authoritarian-masochistic character< by Erich Fromm. hypocrsy in authority aims to excrete every error, every contamination from itself, creating a dissociative mechanism supposed to achieve self-healing. A transfer of judgment and responsibility has been done from the immaterial body of authority to the living human body, >to reaffirm the idea of authority with all its pureness<.
