Abstract
(en) During this exposition, we shed light on the modes of appropriation of aesthetic concepts within Critical Theory. More precisely, we have shown how the transcendental aesthetic discussion arising from Kant's critical enterprise, through the appropriation of Friedrich Schiller's Primo-Romanticism, allows Herbert Marcuse to think of a technical possibility whose foundations are of aesthetical basis, thus allowing a new relationship between productive technology and nature in Marcuse's philosophy.
