    Det absoluta och det gemensamma: Benjamin Höijers konstfilosofi2022Doctoral thesis, monograph (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    This thesis is the first interpretation of Benjamin Höijer’s philosophy of art. Höijer (1767–1812), who was a Swedish representative of German idealism, is considered one of the brightest thinkers in the history of Swedish philosophy, although to this day he has been largely neglected. His writings offer one of the first systematic philosophies of art in the history of Western philosophy. In focus are the two themes of metaphysics and politics, and the thesis strives for an exploration of the speculative concept of the absolute – a key term of Höijer’s work. The method is twofold: a hermeneutical one, which concerns a careful reading of Höijer’s text and a contextualisation of his thought, and a more productive one, which seeks an activation of concepts and themes in Höijer. The study underlines the connection of his concept of the absolute to its supposed opposites: the relative, multiplicity, change, sensuality, and the common – the second main term of the thesis. For Höijer, one of the most important manifestations of the absolute in the world is the work of art. The thesis investigates how artistic creation, artworks, and aesthetic experience can be understood in relation to Höijer’s concept of the absolute and considers what new perspectives on art follow from this. Art also has an essential connection to politics, morality, and society in Höijer, and the thesis explores how his reflections can be understood as a profound critique of modernity. The quest for a better society through cultivation is at the heart of Höijer’s philosophical work. By focusing on Höijer as a political thinker, the thesis also offers a political reading of his metaphysics. The organism, a central concept of his metaphysics and philosophy of art, is interpreted in relation to a vision of a free and equal society. By focusing on the concepts of suffering and compassion – essential to the emergence of thought, society, and art in Höijer – the study furthermore reads his metaphysics as relational and sensuous. Thus, in this first interpretation of both Höijer’s philosophy of art and several of his central metaphysical works, a unique idealism unfolds.
