Abstract

This paper aims at broadening the debate on the issue of the influence of the philosophical writings of Fichte on the writings of Schiller. Our proposed hypothesis is based on three questions: a) how is it possible Schiller’s aesthetic education proposal without an intellectual framework based on intellectual intuition?; b) if Nature has provided all existence in the same way and even determined that man was neither more nor less than the other beings, how can (s)he access this knowledge unless by some kind of intuition?; c) is it actually possible to separate the writings of Schiller from the influence of Fichte’s philosophy? Thus, based on these questions, would not Schiller’s statement: "for art is the daughter of freedom, and it requires its prescriptions and rules to be furnished by the necessity of spirits and not by that of matter”, be a/the theoretical foundation granted by the Fichtean philosophy? In the development of this investigative process, would it not be necessary to revisit what both thinkers present as intuition?
