Summary/Abstract: This article examines the teaching of legal language through the lens of ’dissimulative fantasy’’, bringing together Cicero’s classical rhetoric and the speech act theories of Austin and Searle, as illustrated by legal discourse and the techniques of dissimulation used by lawyers and courts. The study proposes an innovative approach to dissimulation, transforming it from a manipulation tactic into a modern pedagogical strategy designed to foster critical thinking.
