What is the relationship between contemporary intellectual culture
and the European Enlightenment it claims to reject? In Consequences
of Enlightenment, Anthony Cascardi revisits the arguments advanced
in Horkheimer and Adorno's seminal work Dialectic of Enlightenment.
Cascardi argues against the view that postmodern culture has
rejected Enlightenment beliefs and explores instead the
continuities contemporary theory shares with Kant's failed ambition
to bring the project of Enlightenment to completion. He explores
the link between aesthetics and politics in thinkers as diverse as
Habermas, Derrida, Arendt, Nietzsche, Hegel, and Wittgenstein in
order to reverse the tendency to see works of art simply in terms
of the worldly practices among which they are situated.
