The Psychological Technique of Martin Luther Thomas' Radio Addresses
ISBN: 9780804740036 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 139 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Theodor W. Adorno (1903-1969) was one of the twentieth century's most influential thinkers in the areas of social theory, philosophy, aesthetics, and music. This volume reveals another aspect of the work of this remarkable polymath, a pioneering analysis of the psychological underpinnings of what we now call the Radical Right and its use of the media to propagate its political and religious agenda. The now-forgotten Martin Luther Thomas was an American fascist-style demagogue of the Christian right on the radio in the 1930s. During these years, Adorno was living in the United States and...

Correspondence 1925-1935
ISBN: 9780745623351 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In December 1945 Thomas Mann wrote a famous letter to Adorno in which he formulated the principle of montage adopted in his novel Doctor Faustus. The writer expressly invited the philosopher to 'consider, with me, how such a work - and I mean Leverkuhn's work - could more or less be practically realized'. Their close collaboration on questions concerning the character of the fictional composer's putatively late works (Adorno produced specific sketches which are included as an appendix to the present volume) effectively laid the basis for a further exchange of letters.

Introduction to Sociology
ISBN: 9780745615660 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Comprising lectures given by Theodor Adorno towards the end of his life, this anthology provides an introduction to his historical and conceptual engagement with sociology. The lectures were held at the time of the positivist dispute in German sociology, when Adorno was defending the position of the Frankfurt School against criticism from mainstream positivist sociologists. He sets out a conception of sociology as a discipline going beyond the compilation and interpretation of empirical facts, its truth being inseparable from the essential structure of society itself. Sociology, therefore, is...

A leading figure in the Frankfurt School of philosophers from the 1930s through the time of his death in 1969, Adorno was the author of influential philosophical and sociological works on issues ranging from aesthetics, music history, and mass culture to politics, modern technology, and the Western philosophical tradition.

Adorno (1903-1969), one of the principal figures associated with the Frankfurt School, wrote extensively on culture, modernity, aesthetics, literature, and--more than any other subject--music.

The Complete Correspondence, 1928-1940
ISBN: 9780674006898 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The correspondence between Walter Benjamin and Theodor Adorno, which appears here for the first time in its entirety in English translation, must rank among the most significant to have come down to us from that notable age of barbarism, the twentieth century. Benjamin and Adorno formed a uniquely powerful pair. Benjamin, riddle-like in his personality and given to tactical evasion, and Adorno, full of his own importance, alternately support and compete with each other throughout the correspondence, until its imminent tragic end becomes apparent to both writers. Each had met his match, and... The correspondence between Walter Benjamin and Theodor Adorno, which appears here for the first time in its entirety in English translation, must r... |

In December 1945 Thomas Mann wrote a famous letter to Adorno in which he formulated the principle of montage adopted in his novel Doctor Faustus. The writer expressly invited the philosopher to 'consider together just how the work - and here I mean Leverkuehn's work - might actually be realised musically'.

Dialectic of Enlightenment
ISBN: 9780804736336 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 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...

Theodor Adorno is one of this century's most influential thinkers in the areas of social theory, philosophy, aesthetics, and music. Throughout the essays in this book, all of which concern musical matters, he displays an astonishing range of cultural reference, demonstrating that music is invariably social, political, even ethical. Adorno's insistence on the social character of aesthetic works will come as no surprise to those familiar with his writings, although many may be surprised by the volume's somewhat colloquial tone. This colloquialism, in dialogue with Adorno's unceasing rigor,...

The Stars Down to Earth
ISBN: 9780415270991 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This text reveals the prescience of Adorno's writings. Haunted by the ugly side of American culture industries, Adorno used the different angles provided by each of the three essays in this volume to showcase the dangers inherent in modern obsessions with consumption. He engages with some of his most enduring themes in this collection, focusing on the irrational in mass culture - from astrology to new age cults, from anti-semitism to the power of neo-fascist propaganda. He points out that the modern state and market forces serve the interest of capital in its basic form.

Dream Notes
ISBN: 9780745638317 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Dreams are as black as death." - Theodor W. Adorno. Adorno was fascinated by his dreams and wrote them down throughout his life. He envisaged publishing a collection of them although in the event no more than a few appeared in his lifetime. "Dream Notes" offers a selection of Adornos writings on dreams that span the last twenty-five years of his life. Readers of Adorno who are accustomed to high-powered reflections on philosophy, music and culture may well find them disconcerting: they provide an amazingly frank and uninhibited account of his inner desires, guilt feelings and...

Metaphysics: Concept and Problems
ISBN: 9780804745284 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This volume makes available in English for the first time Adorno's lectures on metaphysics. It provides a unique introduction not only to metaphysics but also to Adorno's own intellectual standpoint, as developed in his major work Negative Dialectics. Metaphysics for Adorno is defined by a central tension between concepts and immediate facts. Adorno traces this dualism back to Aristotle, whom he sees as the founder of metaphysics. In Aristotle it appears as an unresolved tension between form and matter. This basic split, in Adorno's interpretation, runs right through the history of...

Problems of Moral Philosophy
ISBN: 9780804744720 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Theodor W. Adorno (1903-1969), one of the leading social thinkers of the twentieth century, long concerned himself with the problems of moral philosophy, or "whether the good life is a genuine possibility in the present." This book consists of a course of seventeen lectures given in May-July 1963. Captured by tape recorder (which Adorno called "the fingerprint of the living mind"), these lectures present a somewhat different, and more accessible, Adorno from the one who composed the faultlessly articulated and almost forbiddingly perfect prose of the works published in his lifetime. Here we...

German Essays on Music: Theodor W. Adorno, Ernst Bloch, Thomas Mann, and Others
ISBN: 9780826407214 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Up to the end of the nineteenth century, Germany largely perceived itself as "the nation of poets and philosophers." But with the enormous popularity of Schubert and Wagner, this began to change. Suddenly, composers also began to play a greater role in theories of national identity, and music theory became and important element of German thought. The essays in this volume reflect this, and are by a range of writers: Adorno, Bloch, Thomas Mann, Wachenroder, Herder, E. T. A. Hoffmann, Hegel, Bettina von Arnim, Nietzsche, Max Weber, Brecht, and others. Up to the end of the nineteenth century, Germany largely perceived itself as "the nation of poets and philosophers."
