4 de may. de 2008 · The Neapolitan Benedetto Croce (1860–1952) was a dominant figure in the first half of the twentieth century in aesthetics and literary criticism, and to lesser but not inconsiderable extent in philosophy generally. But his fame did not last, either in Italy or in the English speaking world.

RESUMEN: El presente trabajo investiga la presencia de Benedetto Croce en la primera fase de la estética del pensamiento de Giovanni Gentile y en qué modo se articuló la discusión en materia estética entre los dos pensadores.
Benedetto Croce, OCI, COSML ( Italian: [beneˈdetto ˈkroːtʃe]; 25 February 1866 – 20 November 1952) [3] was an Italian idealist philosopher, [4] historian, [5] and politician who wrote on numerous topics, including philosophy, history, historiography, and aesthetics.
In 1903 Croce and Gentile founded the periodical La critica which became an important literary magazine of the era. He published other works on esthetics, including La poesia . A book on Hegel appeared in 1907.
See Gentile, Giovanni. Croce presented his system in his major work, Filosofia dello spirito (4 vols, 1902–17). The various volumes have been translated into English as Aesthetic (1909), Logic (1917), Philosophy of the Practical (1915), and Theory and History of Historiography (1921).
In a long and diligent life devoted almost entirely to scholarly studies, Croce gained an international reputation in the fields of aesthetics, literary criticism, cultural history, and historical methodology; and he exercised in these areas an influence so pervasive that it cannot yet be definitively estimated.
