Foucault and Fiction: The Experience Book

Adorno's Negative Dialectic: Philosophy and the Possibility

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: O'Connor, Briong>anong>, PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), The purely philosophical concerns of Theodor W. Adorno's negative dialectic would seem to be far removed from the concreteness of critical theory; Adorno's philosophy considers perhaps the most traditional subject of "pure" philosophy, the structure of experience, whereas critical theory examines specific aspects of society. But, as Briong>anong> O'Connor demonstrates in this highly original interpretation of Adorno's philosophy, the negative dialectic cong>anong> be seen as the theoretical foundation of the reflexivity or critical rationality required by critical theory. Adorno, O'Connor argues, is committed to the "concretion" of philosophy: his thesis of nonidentity attempts to show that reality is not reducible to appearong>anong>ces. This lays the foundation for the applied "concrete" critique of appearong>anong>ces that is essential to the possibility of critical theory. To explicate the context in which Adorno's philosophy operates--the tradition of modern Germong>anong> philosophy, from Kong>anong>t to Heidegger--O'Connor examines in detail the ideas of these philosophers as well as Adorno's self-defining differences with them. O'Connor discusses Georg Lukacs ong>ong>anong>dong> the influence of his "protocritical theory" on Adorno's thought; the elements of Kong>anong>t's ong>ong>anong>dong> Hegel's Germong>anong> idealism appropriated by Adorno for his theory of subject-object mediation; the priority of the object ong>ong>anong>dong> the agency of the subject in Adorno's epistemology; ong>ong>anong>dong> Adorno's importong>anong>t critiques of Kong>anong>t ong>ong>anong>dong> the phenomenology of Heidegger ong>ong>anong>dong> Husserl, critiques that both illuminate Adorno's key concepts ong>ong>anong>dong> reveal his construction of critical theory through ong>anong> engagement with the problems of philosophy.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dionysius of Halicarnassus / Dionysius / Dionysius of Halicarnassus, Of Halicarnassus, PUBLISHER: Harvard University Press, Dionysius of Halicarnassus had migrated to Rome by 30 BCE, where he lived until his death some time after 8 BCE, writing his "Romong>anong> ong>Anong>tiquities" ong>ong>anong>dong> teaching the art of rhetoric ong>ong>anong>dong> literary composition. Dionysius's purpose, both in his own work ong>ong>anong>dong> in his teaching, was to re-establish the classical Attic stong>ong>anong>dong>ards of purity, invention ong>ong>anong>dong> taste in order to reassert the primacy of Greek as the literary long>anong>guage of the Mediterrong>anong>eong>anong> world.

The ong>essayong>s on those two orators ong>ong>anong>dong> on Isocrates, Demosthenes ong>ong>anong>dong> Thucydides comprise Volume I of this edition.
