Musicofobia, musicofilia e filosofia. Kant e nietzsche sobre a música

Abstract

This paper aims to question Kant's alleged musicophobia by comparing it with Nietzsche's well-known musicophilia. By analysing the considerations of both philosophers about music, it will try to show that their opposition is only apparent inasmuch as, both for Kant as well as for Nietzsche, the experience of listening to music has deep affinities with the experience of thinking.
