\nKANT AND THE SPECTRAS. METAPHYSICS, DREAMS AND FICTION IN THE ORIGINS OF THE CULTURAL INDUSTRY<\/strong><\/p>\nThis project aims to present in general lines the development of the theory of spirits undertaken by Kant in the text The dreams of a visionary explained by the dreams of metaphysics, published in 1766, with its epistemic and socio-anthropological consequences. The starting point is the optical scheme that Kant uses to explain the phenomena of communication with spirits and its relationship with the same scheme of visual perception, as well as the spectral projection devices used in spiritist shows and seances.<\/p>\n
Our hypothesis is that the Kantian text is part, due to its style and theme, of the wave of publications about visionaries, apparitions and ghostly shows, which gained volume from the last decades of the eighteenth century and became an epidemic in the following century, starting to what later Adorno and Horkheimer would call the cultural industry. Furthermore, in view of the centrality that the oneiric regime has for capitalist realism in Mike Fischer’s terms, it is no less likely that this will give the structural continuity of the Kantian scheme and its spectral consequences. Thus, our ultimate goal, in addition to confronting this collective dreamlike regime, is to investigate other possibilities for sharing dreams and their direct relationship with society, territoriality and temporality regimes in non-Western societies, as an alternative to the model of capitalist realism.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
