The aim of this article is to reveal the relevance of aesthetics in the philosophy of Paul Ricoeur
with particular respect to the concept of utopia as presented in the
Lectures
published in 1986. Utopia is relevant to aesthetics at three levels. First
utopia is a literary genre and as such it shares with the artistic sphere some formal and content-related criteria. Second
utopia is an imaginative variation of reality
therefore it shares with fiction some transformative power with respect to ordinary experience. As works of fiction
utopias are always historical
singular
and creative
therefore resist sociological reduction. Third
Saint-Simon and especially Fourier's utopias put aesthetic life at the core of their reformation project
which allows Ricoeur to emphasize the role of passions in the good life. In Ricoeur's account
utopia
for its cognitive
ethical
political
and aesthetic aspects
results in an ambivalent construct that counters the modern tendence to separate and oppose science and art.
