Article Title:Rethinking literature as art (Trial on a definition of literature)

Abstract:
We should do what unites. The burdening multiplication of definitions of art and literature which accumulantes postmodern thinking makes urgent a reflection about the common aspects and criteria of art and thus about the criteria allowing a definition of literature as one of the arts beyond all historical and factical diversity which logically must exist. The essay proposes a new and altogether ancient definition of the arts based on their capacibility and obligation to make transparent being by means of the transcendentals.
