For an Aesthetics from the Experience of Unity in Klaus Hemmerle

Abstract

This article is meant to explore the question of the relationship between aesthetics and trinitarian ontology. Together with the author of the Theses for a Trinitarian Ontology (1976), Klaus Hemmerle, it offers an essential path for an aesthetics stemming from the experience of unity. Hemmerle’s aesthetical vocation to unity, the experience of the marianum transcendental and engagement with an ontology of Claritas, will be the main stages along this route.
