Abstract
This study aims to be an aesthetic reflection around a category of ruin it will be presented by the name of “residue.” We will approach the epistemological and ontological conditions that construct these kinds of objects belonging to modernity geographies. The investigation will focus on the defensive ruins from aesthetic experience along the European military landscapes of the 20th Century. By the tools of the phenomenology (M. Heidegger), this contribution will try to help to develop a theoretical framework around a type of architectonic ruins that generates an alteration on its condition of image, as well as an alteration on the landscape that derives. For these reasons, we will try to unfold the aesthetic result of the broken relation between the entity and its surroundings, between the noumena and phenomena, understood as objects without world.
