"Adorno and Heidegger" explores the conflictual history of two
important traditions of twentieth-century European thought: the
critical theory of Theodor W. Adorno and the ontology of Martin
Heidegger. As is well known, there has been little productive
engagement between these two schools of thought, in large measure
due to Adorno's sustained and unanswered critique of Heidegger.
Stemming from this critique, numerous political and philosophical
barriers have kept these traditions separate, such that they have
rarely been submitted to scrutiny, let alone questioned. The essays
making up this collection are fresh and original attempts at coming
to terms with the nuances and difficulties that these two towering
figures have bequeathed to the history of European thought. The
volume's authors deal with a variety of issues ranging from
epistemology to esthetics, to ethics, to intellectual history and
modernity, providing the reader with detailed insight into a thorny
debate in the history of recent European thought.
