'''Theodor Lipps''' ([[28 July]] [[1851]] in [[Wallhalben]] – [[17 October]] [[1914]] in [[Munich]]) was a [[Germany|German]] [[philosopher]]. One of the most influential German university professors of his time, having attracted many students from other countries. Lipps was very concerned with conceptions of art and the aesthetic, focusing much of his philosophy around such issues. Among his fervent admirers was [[Freud]], Lipps then being the main supporter of [[subconscious]].<ref>Pigman, G.W. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=7628894&dopt=Abstract Freud and the history of empathy], The International journal of psycho-analysis, 1995 Apr;76 (Pt 2):237-56.</ref> He thought each state to have its level of consciousness and laughter being associated with hidden negative aspects (also present with [[Thomas Hobbes]] or [[Henri Bergson]]). Central to his philosophy, he adopted [[Robert Vischer]] notions of [[empathy]] or esthetic sympathy (''Einfühlung'').
Late in life, he adopted some ideas from [[Husserl]]. Disliking his psychologism, some of his students actually joined with some of Husserl's to form a new branch called [[Phenomenology of essences]].
