- Abstract
- (en) This article proposes a re-evaluation of the notion of "event" in the field of aesthetics, which requires to question the specific temporality of the concept of "sublime", traditionally associated with a flash, a staggering moment, which precisely constitutes an event. The development leans on the Kantian Analytic of the sublime which, on diverse occasions, highlights the paradoxical character of a sublime that only seems able to fulfil itself at the price of a double temporality, ultimately named regressive. I shall defend here the thesis that the sublime refers actually to an aesthetic experience of the event per se, allowing us to conceptualise a certain "aesthetic idea" of time. Such an experience, as a matter of fact, seems to be embodied in different poetic productions of our modernity.
