Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 Adorno’s use of literary, musical, philosophical, and idiomatic allusions is an integral part of the book’s formal structure and style. All actual quotations have been newly translated from the original, and footnoted to standard native editions.
#2 The teaching of the good life is related to a region that has been regarded as the true field of philosophy since the conversion of method: the teaching of life. However, life has been reduced and degraded to a mere appearance. The change in the relations of production depends on what takes place in the sphere of consumption.
#3 In opposition to the subject being simply for itself, dialectical theory cannot accept aphorisms as such. In the most lenient instance, they could be tolerated as conversation. But the time for that is past. The subject is vanishing, and aphorisms must consider the evanescent itself as essential.
#4 Social analysis can learn a lot from individual experience, while the large historical categories are no longer above suspicion of fraud. In the period of his decay, the individual’s experience of himself and what he encounters contributes to knowledge.
