Abstract

This article analyzes the aesthetic concept of historical sense as developed in Jörn Rüsen’s work. In a first step, I identify the points of contact of Jörn Rüsen’s theoretical framework with the concept of iconic density of sense, as developed by the art historian Max Imdahl. In a second step, the terms of the debate announced by Rüsen are broadened, since the current challenge posed by the images is no longer limited to the possibility of giving visibility to historical events or to the historical sense, but is reconfigured when considering the strategies through which the objects of science and the scientific thought itself are visualized.
