The legal knowledge of Brazilian elites represented in the text by "Medallion" of Machado de Assis - is a symbolic capital that (re) produces a social organization that creates privileged positions of power for some and controls and rather invisible others, imposing power by know. Thus, the legal education always turned to the "sacredness" of concepts and institutes, involving the removal of an emancipatory understanding of legal phenomenon, approached in aseptic and dogmatic form, separating the "start" right science at the "uninitiated". In this sense, this research - carried from the phenomenological method - aims to discuss, from the desecration idea coined by the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben, the possibility of a "new use" of legal education, able to subvert, the path of resistance and waratiana carnivalization, the traditional model of sacredness, breaking the nexus historically established between knowledge and power
