THE ANALYTICSOF SENSIBILITY AS CREATIVITY IN H. COHEN’S AESTHETICS

Abstract

The author considers the conception of aesthetic feeling of the founder of Neo-Kantian Marburg philosophical school prof. Hermann Cohen. The creative re-thinking by Cohen of Kant’s ideas responded to the late 19th - early 20th century demands for theoretical elucidation of emotional world of a person. Thus the study of feelings as a special form of consciousness became for the first time the necessary part of the system of philosophy. «The Aesthetics of Pure Feeling» by Cohen closes a systemic whole, which includes «The Logic of Pure Knowledge» and «The Ethics of Pure Will».
