" Une esthétique du laid ? Et pourquoi pas ? L'esthétique est aujourd'hui un terme collectif qui recouvre un large groupe de concepts, qui à son tour se divise en trois classes distinctes. La première concerne l'idée du beau, la deuxième le concept de sa production, c'est-à-dire l'art, la troisième le système des arts, la représentation du beau au moyen de l'art dans un medium déterminé. Nous avons l'habitude de regrouper les concepts qui appartiennent à la première de ces classes sous le titre de métaphysique du beau. Mais quand on analyse l'idée du beau, on ne saurait en dissocier l'étude du laid. Le concept du laid, le beau négatif, constitue donc une partie de l'esthétique. Il n'y a pas d'autre science à laquelle on pourrait le rattacher, et par conséquent c'est à juste titre qu'on parle de l'esthétique du laid.

Haben wir es noch nötig zu sterben? Oder sterben wir nur, weil wir glau-ben, daß wir es müssen? Sollten wir nicht lieber leben lernen - denn richtig leben wird sterben überflüssig machen! Durch eine Vielzahl köstlicher Essays zieht sich wie ein roter Faden diese Aufforderung: doch von unserem Kleinmut und unserer geistigen Enge zu lassen und uns statt dessen aufzuschwingen zu der Freiheit und der Macht des Bewußtseins, das wir in Wirklichkeit sind und das unseren Traum vom ewigen Leben - im Körper auf der Erde - Wirklichkeit werden lassen kann.
