AISTHETHICON: Theatrical Acts at the Limits of Philosophy, by JM Lozano Alamilla.

Abstract: This dissertation studies a series of French exemplary theoretical texts in which an exploration through the aesthetic figure of the theatrical act and its ethical considerations has been developed in relation to the limits of philosophy and philosophical thinking.
At the same time, this dissertation studies characteristics of the technique which every one of the thinkers has questioned the limits of philosophical thinking.The technique, which we shall refer to as the aisthethicon, includes setting up spatio-temporal realms as the conceptual version of more traditional staging in the theater, as well as developing conceptual characters, dramatizations, plots and fictions that introduce suggestive paradoxes, aphorisms and oblique references.
