Abstract

The text outlines the conception of subjectivity that the philosopher Ernst Bloch (1885-1977) presented in his work published 100 years ago: Spirit of Utopia (Geist der Utopie, 1918). After a short reconstruction of the context in which this conception arose (the reception of German idealistic thought: Kant and Hegel, the discussions with the philosopher and poetess Margarete Susman and others) the paper describes its elaboration in the work of Bloch (Traces, 1930, Heritage of Our Times, 1936), its receptions and criticisms (for example the narrative counterproposals by Siegfried Kracauer and Bert Brecht) as well as some transcultural affinities (among others with Stanisław Brzozowski, a Polish philosopher of culture).
