Summary/Abstract: The text dwells on Schiller’s aesthetical project as an emancipatory and focuses on the projects’ conclusion. The emancipatory discourse unfolds by the disclosure of multilayered oppositions that have led to a sort of disruption which determines the problematic conclusion of the promised transition to political freedom achieved through art. The concepts of aesthetic state and beauty in appearance are viewed as both central to the issue under discussion and as leading to the broader discussion on the relationship between art and reality.
