Abstract

Along the way of works that deal with issues involving the autonomy of art, a category of Aesthetic since modernity, this article aims to develop explanations about two authors, Arthur Schopenhauer (1788–1860) and Herbert Marcuse (1898-1979), who influenced by the aesthetic of Kant, have perspectives that allow reflections on the autonomy of art, although Marcuse positions himself as a critic of the perspective represented by Schopenhauer. In particular, this article will present the aesthetic understanding of the philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer - in the main work of this author, The World as Will and Representation - above all the place of the artistic genius in the work of the German philosopher, as well as presenting the notes of the philosopher Herbert Marcuse in the work The Aesthetic Dimension, from 1977, which summarizes the main issues of the author's aesthetic.

Keywords: Schopenhauer, Marcuse, autonomy of art, aesthetic
