The bachelor thesis aims to establish whether modern science is gnosologically truly what it nowadays believes itself to be, and is believed to be. Examined as the key problem is science as a mere copy (Husserl calls this substruction, an "annex") of the protoscientific world - the lifeworld - while it presents itself as the real world. Capable of speaking only of cold objective facts, it presents itself as the sole relevant bearer of the criterion of reality and validity for all things, which brings about the loss of the world and consequently gives rise to nihilism. To review the reflection on the problem indicated, the paper looks at the insights of two thinkers, Nietzsche and Husserl. Regarding Nietzsche, we will speak of nihilism and of art set against science as the moment of the creation of truth, while with Husserl, we study insight as the source of philosophy, how the latter begot modern science, how this represents a gateway to crisis, and his attempt at establishing strict science.
