While the epistemological interpretations made of Hume's philosophy have evaded his naturalistic investigation and misinterpreted his ideas, a reading on modernity, both in general and, mainly, on illustration has gone deep into the empire of the stark and fundamentally calculating reason, determined in a technical domain of nature and men. I investigate, under the veils obscuring the true meaning of modernity, that  hidden side. The focus of this inquiry is Hume's aesthetic works.

Palabras clave : Hume; modern reason.
