La découverte de la spécifi cité des arts : : de Du Bos à Lessing

Abstract: It is the Renaissance that equated painting and poetry, following Horace’s: ut pictura poesis, this equality being grounded in a mimetic principle. While this position had been defended by Batteux, it was Abbé du Bos who, following an aesthetic theory based on eff ects, compared the specifi c medium of each art, with a refl ection on the character of their diff erent signs. Diderot went even further, when defi ning beauty as creation of an illusion, though the means to achieve this creation were radically diff erent. Like Diderot, Lessing defends the thesis of the superiority of literature, since it is capable of transmitting atemporality while the visual arts, in as much as they are spatial, immobilize a specifi c moment
