G.W.F. Hegel on Truth of Art - Dictionary of Arguments
Gadamer I 103 Truth of Art/Hegel/Gadamer: Initial problem: The appeal to immediacy, to the genius of the moment, to the meaning cannot exist before the claim of human existence to continuity and unity of self-understanding. The experience of art must not be forced into the noncommittal nature of aesthetic consciousness. Cf. >Erlebniskunst/Gadamer. This negative insight means something positive here: art is insight and the experience of the work of art makes this insight part of it. Art as Recognition/GadamerVsKant: This is difficult to be acknowledged if one measures the truth of knowledge with Kant against the concept of knowledge in science and the concept of reality in natural science. It is necessary to take the concept of experience further than Kant did, so that the experience of the work of art can also be understood as experience. >Art/Hegel. Hegel/Gadamer: [In Hegel's lectures on aesthetics] the truth content, which lies in all experience of art, is brought to recognition in a magnificent way and at the same time communicated with historical consciousness. Aesthetics thus becomes a history of world views, i.e. a history of truth as it becomes visible in the mirror of art. Thus, the task we formulated, which is to be understood in the experience, in the art itself to justify the knowledge of truth. >Worldview/Hegel, >Aesthetics/Hegel._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
