This study proposes an epistemological model on the basis of a streamlined and heavily modified German Idealism. Applying my model to the work of Charles Baudelaire, I conclude that the specific conditions of material modernity produce an epistemological darkness ultimately leading to fatalism in the guise of a materialist teleology.
This study proposes an epistemological model on the basis of a streamlined and heavily modified German Idealism. With an analytical focus on the French Second Empire, the underlying research question is rather straightforward: how is knowledge created in material modernity? Using my epistemological model as a methodology for cultural criticism, a second research question emerges: how does the creation of knowledge in material modernity affect human existence? In this context, my argument revolves around the work of Charles Baudelaire, who, as the first poet of modernity, serves as a cultural-critical gateway. I conclude that the specific conditions of material modernity eventually produce an epistemological darkness ultimately leading to fatalism in the guise of a materialist teleology.
