Abstract
In this research, we choose to turn our attention to a single concept, the nonknowledge, trying to deploy it in a meaning’s direction that we can enclose in the experiential, and not disciplinary, meaning of moral, understood as habit, manner, bearing and behaviour. It is not by chance that Bataille has honed his pensive gaze on the mannered and unmannered human acting, believing that here, in this «layer» of nonknowledge that rhythmically crosses human affairs, the adventure of the human, including the adventure of establishing «weddings, courts and altars», is at stake.
