Abstract

This study focuses on the subject of phenomenological aesthetics and aesthetic awareness of one of the most important Arab thinkers, the Tunisian thinker Mohamed Mohsen al-Zary. That the concern of the one truth ended, and was replaced by the phenomenological relationship with the artistic work and its impact, as the aesthetic phenomenological features and more open approaches were established.
This study relies on a phenomenological approach that opens a new horizon and space. This horizon was greatly influenced by Husserl’s philosophy, which is a phenomenological attempt to open a rich field for phenomenology away from fixed, one-dimensional rules, and removing every technical dimension to it, and this new openness to aesthetic experience and aesthetic awareness. It enabled the expansion of the fields of phenomenology to a horizon of multiple understandings and visions, or to what is called phenomenology or interpretive philosophy.
        The tool of the methodological and artistic approach to the work of art is represented in the phenomenology and its rules that were manifested in the phenomenology of art with Husserl and the new or late phenomenology with Merleau-Ponty, Michel Henry (1922˗2002) Michel Henry, Henry Maldiney (1912˗2013) Henri Maldiney, Michael Dufrene (1995˗ 1910) Mikel Dufrenne, Erwin Strauss (1891˗1975), and Jean-Luc Marion (1946) Mohamed Mohsen al-Zary employed their phenomenological ideas in most of his philosophical works in various ways and methodologies that were one of the important goals for the demand for reading His books are in the field of aesthetics, specifically focusing on phenomenological aesthetics and aesthetic consciousness.
