Bourdieu Leitor De Kant: Ensaio Sobre a Gênese Teórica dos Limites da Experiência Estética na Sociologia Bourdieusiana

Abstract

This essay intends to subject Pierre Bourdieu's aesthetic thinking to reflexive criticism. For this, it defends the partial and flawed character of the reflexivity carried out by the French sociologist especially with regard to the theoretical determinants of his aesthetic approach -, implying in two problems: (1) restricted view of the relation between freedom and aesthetic experience; and especially (2) inability to develop reflexivity from aesthetic experience. The objectivist critique seeks to reveal the theoretical determinants that have resulted in such damages, recognizing the role played by the Aesthetics of Taste, especially Kant, in the aesthetic approach of Pierre Bourdieu.
