| description | According to Hegel’s Vorlesungen über die Ästhetik, art has, in the course of time, suffered the loss of its highest purpose. In Hegel, poetry replaces the ancient tragedy, in which the congruence of subjectivity and substantiality is supposedly exhibited, as a generic paradigm of modernity. However, poetry has to cede the function to make the absolute Geist present to itself to philosophy. Hölderlin shares Hegel’s theoretical premises regarding history and genre, but he arrives at a diametrically opposed understanding of poetry: For him, it is not a form that reflects subjective particularity in modernity as in Hegel, but a medium with which the correlation between subjectivity and substantiality can be rehabilitated. A concluding comparison between Hölderlin and Foucault shows the similar structures in their thinking: Foucault also recognizes a subversive potential in modern poetry to rebut the hege(l)monic claims of philosophy. |
