Theoretische Ästhetik
Author: Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten
language: de
Publisher: Felix Meiner Verlag
Release Date: 1988-01-01
"Mit der Veröffentlichung der 'Aesthetica' löste Baumgarten ein, was er in seiner Metaphysica (PhB 351) im Ansatz formulierte: die Ästhetik als eigenständige Disziplin, das ist als 'Wissenschaft der sinnlichen Erkenntnis', systematisch zu begründen und zur Darstellung zu bringen. Der Impuls, der davon ausging, hatte wirkungsgeschichtlich zunächst nur als Entwurf einer besonderen Philosophie der Kunst breite Resonanz. Das eigentliche Ziel war jedoch sehr viel weiter gesteckt: Gegen Wolff, der die Formen der 'sinnlichen Erkenntnis' noch dem 'unteren Erkenntnisvermögen' zurechnete, erweist Baumgarten das Eigenrecht der sensitiven gegenüber der rationalen Erkenntnis."
Die Wende Von Der Aufklärung Zur Romantik 1760-1820
Author: Horst Albert Glaser

Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
Release Date: 2000
This volume is the twelfth to date in a series of works in French or English presenting the epochs and movements of a Comparative History of Literatures in European Languages (Histoire Comparée des Littératures de Langues Européennes). The original intention of the editors was to publish a four-volume history of European literature from 1760-1820, and the first of these volumes, Des Lumières au Romantisme. Genres en Vers, appeared as long ago as 1982. The volumes Genres en Prose and Théâtre are still awaited. In their absence the present volume, Epoche im _berblick, attempts a more comprehensive and rigorous treatment of the period and its historiographical problems than was initially planned, providing the reader with an overview of sixty eventful years of European literary history years in which German Classicism coincided with the birth, initially in Germany and England, of Romanticism. And at the centre of this turbulent period of European intellectual and literary history stands the French Revolution.
Reconstituting the Body Politic
Author: Jonathan M. Hess
language: en
Publisher: Wayne State University Press
Release Date: 1999
The concept that art must have no instrumental function is a doctrine traditionally traced back to Kant's Critique of Judgment. In Reconstituting the Body Politic, Jonathan Hess proposes that this concept of autonomous art marks not a withdrawal from the political realm but the ultimate embodiment of Enlightenment political culture, a response to a crisis in the institution idealized by Jurgen Habermas as the bourgeois public sphere. In Reconstituting the Body Politic, Hess explores the moment in late eighteenth-century Germany that witnessed the emergence of two concepts that marked the modern era: the political concept of the public sphere and the doctrine of aesthetic autonomy. By considering the extent to which, at its very inception, the concept of aesthetic autonomy is inextricably intertwined with the emergence of the concept of the public sphere, he offers both a historical study of the political conditions that produced this concept and a contribution to contemporary literary and political theory. Reading texts by Kant alongside the writings of contemporaries like Karl Philipp Moritz, Hess examines a wide variety of eighteenth-century texts, discourses, and institutions. He then enters into a critical dialogue with Walter Benjamin, Reinhart Koselleck, and Jurgen Habermas to articulate a political critique of this aesthetic. The aesthetic theory of Kant's Critique emerges not as a mere defense of the "disinterestedness" of aesthetic pleasure but as an engaged response to the political limitations of public culture during the Enlightenment. Hess argues for an understanding of these concepts as functionally interdependent, and he reflects on what this interdependence mightmean for the practice of literary and cultural criticism today. His work will interest not only Germanists and critical theorists but also art historians and historians of philosophy and political thought.
