Abstract

Christoph Menke argues that the aesthetic subject has no place in the the tradition of the Hegelian-Heideggerian subject. The author proposes that aesthetic subjectivity can’t be articulated in a metaphysic of the subject. Indeed, this article reconstructs such theme to think beyond the absolute subject from two strategies: return to the Baumgarten’s force and Schlegel’s Irony. Going back to these proposals opens another way to understand modernity and subjectivity.
