On one hand, we propose an analysis of the role played by the poetry of the dolce stil nuovo and neoplatonism as a means of tackling the warburguian understanding of Botticelli’s allegories. On the other hand, we try to grasp the philosophical meaning of Warburg’s hypotheses by studying Marsilio Ficino’s commentary to Guido Calvacanti’s poem Donna me prega. Ficino’s interpretation is founded on the notion of spiritus and the desubjectification of the lovers in favour of the cosmological forces. In this way, the foreclosure of the body is presented as the condition of possibility for the phantasm to become the authentic object of desire. This interpretation is sanctioned by Ficino’s original appropriation of the Platonic theory of the two Venuses (celestial and vulgar). Finally, we advance the hypothesis that the splitting between the two Venuses in the neoplatonic tradition is a landmark in the history of metaphysics and plays a fundamental role in the way that Warburg will understand his own period of psychiatric reclusion in Kreuzlingen since 1921 to 1924.   El presente artículo tiene como propósito interrogarse sobre la matriz conceptual según la cual Aby Warburg interpretó tanto El Nacimiento de la Primavera como la Primavera de Sandro Botticelli. Por un lado, proponemos un análisis del papel desempeñado por la poesía del dolce stil nuovo y el neoplatonismo en la comprensión warburguiana de las alegorías de Botticelli. Por otro lado, intentamos dar cuenta de la significación filosófica de la hipótesis explicativa de Warburg a través de un estudio del comentario de Marsilio Ficino al poema Donna me prega de Guido Cavalcanti. La interpretación de Ficino toma como base la noción de spiritus y la desubjetivación de los amantes en beneficio de las potencias cosmológicas. De esta manera, la forclusión del cuerpo resulta la condición de posibilidad del fantasma como auténtico objeto de deseo. Esta interpretación es sancionada por la original apropiación de Ficino de la teoría platónica de las dos Venus (celestial y vulgar). Finalmente, avanzamos la hipótesis según la cual la escisión de las dos Venus en la tradición neoplatónica marca un hito en la historia de la metafísica y juega un papel preponderante en la comprensión que Warburg tendrá de su propio período de internación psiquiátrica en Kreuzlingen desde 1921 a 1924. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CdF/article/view/7801 10.34096/cf.n72.7801 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CdF/article/view/7801/6873 Cuadernos de filosofía; Núm. 72 (2019); 23-35 2362-485X 0590-1901 phantasm Ficino madness Venus Warburg fantasma Ficino locura Venus Warburg The body of the image and madness in Aby Warbug.
