Abstract

This chapter analyzes the representation of the subject-forming processes of female characters in the Lucifer TV series through the characters' relation with space and how ‘evil' is presented here as the distortion of the traditional forms of these relations. In doing this, Deleuze's Baroque House is used as an allegory. The chapter thus highlights that creative ways taken in the series which is about the story of the ‘devil' on earth, in order to represent subjectivity not as a solid identity but as a process that is constantly being constructed and deconstructed. Authors thus suggest an alternative interpretation of the series by focusing this construction's relation with the space and highlight the multi-folded and permissive nature of the relation between femininity and space, that is often though within quite solid categories.
