Paperback. Zustand: New. Dialectic of Enlightenment is undoubtedly the most influential publication of the Frankfurt School of Critical Theory. Written during the Second World War and circulated privately, it appeared in a printed edition in Amsterdam in 1947. "What we had set out to do," the authors write in the Preface, "was nothing less than to explain why humanity, instead of entering a truly human state, is sinking into a new kind of barbarism." Yet the work goes far beyond a mere critique of contemporary events. Historically remote developments, indeed, the birth of Western history and of subjectivity itself out of the struggle against natural forces, as represented in myths, are connected in a wide arch to the most threatening experiences of the present. The book consists in five chapters, at first glance unconnected, together with a number of shorter notes. The various analyses concern such phenomena as the detachment of science from practical life, formalized morality, the manipulative nature of entertainment culture, and a paranoid behavioral structure, expressed in aggressive anti-Semitism, that marks the limits of enlightenment. The authors perceive a common element in these phenomena, the tendency toward self-destruction of the guiding criteria inherent in enlightenment thought from the beginning. Using historical analyses to elucidate the present, they show, against the background of a prehistory of subjectivity, why the National Socialist terror was not an aberration of modern history but was rooted deeply in the fundamental characteristics of Western civilization. Adorno and Horkheimer see the self-destruction of Western reason as grounded in a historical and fateful dialectic between the domination of external nature and society. They trace enlightenment, which split these spheres apart, back to its mythical roots. Enlightenment and myth, therefore, are not irreconcilable opposites, but dialectically mediated qualities of both real and intellectual life. "Myth is already enlightenment, and enlightenment reverts to mythology." This paradox is the fundamental thesis of the book. This new translation, based on the text in the complete edition of the works of Max Horkheimer, contains textual variants, commentary upon them, and an editorial discussion of the position of this work in the development of Critical Theory.…

Soft cover. Zustand: As New. 1st Edition. As New. An apparently unread copy in essentially new condition. Clean and unmarked throughout, with a tight binding, uncreased spine and clean original illustrated paperback covers. Max Horkheimer and Theodor W. Adorno, Dialectic of Enlightenment: Philosophical Fragments, edited by Gunzelin Schmid Noerr and translated by Edmund Jephcott. Stanford University Press, 2006 printing of the Stanford English-language edition originally published in 2002, issued in the Cultural Memory in the Present series. One of the principal works of the Frankfurt School and twentieth-century Critical Theory, Dialectic of Enlightenment was written by Horkheimer and Adorno during the Second World War and first appeared in published form in Amsterdam in 1947. The work examines the historical development of Enlightenment reason and the authors' argument concerning the capacity of rationality, when organised around domination and instrumental calculation, to reproduce forms of coercion from which Enlightenment thought had sought emancipation. Among the book's most influential contributions is its analysis of the 'culture industry', through which Horkheimer and Adorno examine mass entertainment, cultural standardisation, commercial production and the relationship between modern culture and capitalist society. Its wider philosophical investigation encompasses the relationship between enlightenment and mythology, instrumental reason, subjectivity, antisemitism and the historical conditions within which twentieth-century authoritarianism developed. This Stanford edition presents Edmund Jephcott's English translation, based upon the German text published in Max Horkheimer's collected works and edited by Gunzelin Schmid Noerr. It incorporates textual variants and editorial commentary concerning the development and interpretation of the text, making this an important modern scholarly edition of a foundational work in Critical Theory. …
