Aesthetics and its “End”

Chapter
Publication Date:
2020
abstract:
The Author intends to show how the notion of “aura” which may be equated
to “wonder-awe”, commonly regarded as the “origin of philosophy”, is what
intimately connects the birth of aesthetics to that of philosophy, in Greece.
The Author then examines key points in the development of “aesthetics” as a
discipline by considering some of the most influential philosophers, both ancient
(Plato, Aristotle, and Plotinus) and modern/contemporary (from Kant
to Heidegger). The gradual disappearance of the notion of “aura” in the history
of the discipline is fundamental for understanding the “crisis” aesthetics suffered
in the 1900s.
L’autore intende mostrare come la nozione di “aura” che può essere equiparata
al “meraviglioso”, comunemente considerata come l’“origine della filosofia”, è
ciò che lega intimamente la nascita dell’estetica a quella della filosofia, in Grecia.
L’autore esamina poi i punti chiave nello sviluppo dell’“estetica” come disciplina
considerando alcuni dei più influenti filosofi, antichi (Platone, Aristotele
e Plotino) e moderni/contemporanei (da Kant a Heidegger). La graduale
scomparsa della nozione di “aura” nella storia della disciplina è fondamentale
per comprendere la “crisi” di cui soffre l’estetica nel Novecento.
