La inasible experiencia de la modernidad: Ensayo e ironía de F. Schlegel a G. Lukács

in the present work, our aim is to emphasize the tensions between the concepts of irony and essay which lukács uses in the soul and the forms, and the way in which such concepts were used by friedrich schlegel at the end of the 18th. century. with that purpose, we will utilize the categories of "modern episteme" and "episteme of the forms" as they are formulated by elías palti. we believe that these categories will allow us to detect certain breaks in the discursive level that remain hidden under the apparent continuity of some topics and make difficult the reading of the soul and the forms.
