"The problem with Hegels aesthetics is the assumption that the truth
of a
work of art emerges completely via its conceptual articulation. The
assumption is that the
truth is already there when I interpret a literary text
for example. All I
have to do is reveal the mediations that are present in the
text. This
means that my role as
interpreter is just to read what is
supposedly latent in the text, not to
reveal things about the text via my
individual creative initiative."
