Keywords: Art History; postmodernism; poetry.
Summary/Abstract: My paper draws upon the allegorical legacy of Baudelaire and Benjamin, not to restate the postmodern orthodoxy surrounding their postmodern appropriation in the late twentieth century,but to provoke new thoughts and imaginings about the potential to be realized from attempting to allegorize the re-joining of utopian and allegorical modes of critique together with historical materialism.
