Homo aestheticus

Ferry Luc

Summary

 

Luc Ferry: Homo aestheticus

The Discovery of Taste in the Democratic Age

The aim of this work is to present significant conceptual moments in the history of democratic individualism or modern subjectivity. For the reasons I clarified in the first chapter, the field of aesthetics is the field where, even today, the deposits of such a history are most visible and richest in meanings. I had to hold both ends of a fragile chain: on the one hand, to re-understand the provisions of subjectivity where they were explicitly formulated, which is in philosophy, without giving up the interpretation of certain aspects of one discipline, aesthetics, which fortunately is inseparable from the concrete history of art. All the difficulties stem from the fact that philosophy, unlike the historical sciences, does not belong to what we usually call "general culture". Art lovers, even erudites, are not always close to the works of Leibniz, Baumgarten, Kant or Hegel.
