Bøker av Marton Dornbach

Throws fresh light on the intellectual exchange and disagreements between Walter Benjamin and Theodor Adorno, the problematic conjunction of secular reason and negative theology in their thinking, and their appropriations of ancient and modern legacies.

This book elucidates the ways in which German Idealist authors such as Kant, Fichte, Friedrich Schlegel and Hegel envisioned the conjunction of spontaneous activity and receptivity towards culturally transmitted models in the context of aesthetic experience, philosophical thought, textual communication and literary criticism.
