ACOSTA, María del Rosario. From "Nostalgia for Classic" to "The End of Classic as Nostalgia": Winckelmann and Burckhardt. Estud.filos [online]. 2005, n.31, pp.39-63. ISSN 0121-3628.

This text proposes to answer a question about the relation between Aesthetics and Philosophy of History as found in the Aesthetic Theories of Winckelmann (half of the XVIIIth Century) as opposed to Burckhardt´s reflexions on History (end of the XIXth Century), and each of these is crossed by the meaning the concept of "classic" acquires in them. The idea is to show how a History of Art such as Winckelman´s, whose criterion is Greek Art as canon, necessarily entails with it a Philosophy of History that supports it and makes it possible; at the same time, that a reflexion about History such as Burckhardt´s, that presents itself as an answer to the Neo-classic tradition and to the Romantic tradition that comes right before it, displays behind it an Aesthetic Thought that is self-made.

Palavras-chave : Winckelmann; Burckhardt; classic; nostalgia; aesthetics; philosophy of history.
