Aufklärungs-Kritik und Aufklärungs-Mythen

Horkheimer und Adorno in philosophiehistorischer Perspektive

von ,

This volume re-examines the overall picture of the Enlightenment offered by Horkheimer and Adorno, including their interpretations of Bacon, Spinoza, Kant, and de Sade. While scholars discussing the Dialectic of Enlightenment have generally concentrated on its fundamental critique of rationality, they have rarely asked whether the philosophers considered by the work are suitable vehicles for critiquing Enlightenment.
