The Aesthetic Revolution in Germany
1750–1950 – From Winckelmann to Nietzsche – from Nietzsche to Beckmann
Samenvatting
The rationalisation of the world is answered in Germany by an Aesthetic Revolution (Winckelmann, the romantic movement). It culminates in Nietzsche, and becomes a conservative revolution in the 1920s. After 1945, Beckmann and M. Walser embody the necessity of the aesthetic perspective.
