Abstract (EN)

As of being one of the most fundamental subjects of philosophy in the discussion of aspects and realities, Schopenhauer answers the questions of 'What is the essence of being?' 'What is knowledge?' 'What is human?' He thinks that the answer to all of these is is the 'Will'. In his masterpiece 'The World as Will and Idea' the world as idea is described as the knowledge of the phenomena that occupy space and time; the world as will on the other hand is the essence of existence and it is objectified through the will of everything in the visible world. The person who knows and wills occupies the top in the hierarchy. The human body as the first object recognizes will in the sexual organ for the continuity of the essence of existence. Man lives as the slave of his desires and aspirations, and only dervishes or geniuses can be saved and free of their wills. Geniuses who are individuals objectifying their ideas of the phenomena on earth that are independent from the principle sufficient reason can be free through art. "Music" is the will itself. Deriving from the knowledge of realizing the essence of self through music, the continuity of will by sexuality in the human body will be examined, The works of performance artist Ana Mendieta's abstract objectification of her own body, and the definition of the "Female Genius" will be examined through the feminist perspective. This research will also discuss the thoughts such as "Creating a New Language" and that which is "performative" used by modern feminist philosophers Luce Irigaray and Judith Butler, respectively.
